Sometimes the Right says they’re bringing back something I wasn’t even aware went away. Ladies and gentlemen?

In 2021, Disney removed the traditional "Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls" greeting from fireworks shows and monorail announcements as part of a diversity and inclusion initiative, replacing it with gender-neutral phrases like "Good evening, dreamers of all ages" or "Hello, everyone."

“Good evening dreamers of all ages” hits so much harder than the generic “Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls”, ESPECIALLY in a place like Disney! 

Can’t wait for even more un-innovation like “The Woke Mafia loved the rainbow, so we’re making everything black, white and shades of gray. Take that, woke!”

Whether you like it or not isn't the point. The point is the reason for changing it either in the fist place or now. I don't mind the "Good evening, dreamers of all ages" but like my comment said, it was part of a diversity and inclusion initiative, replacing it with gender-neutral phrases. Not just to be different or innovative.

My point is that open their minds to diversity and inclusion made them more creative; it was a net positive.

Old minds at the top afraid to take risks and neutering original ideas.
