Pride Month: The gay kiss on Disney’s Doctor Who and a Charleston school district employee struts for the kids

Pride Month is here, and we’re being inundated with LGBTQ+ propaganda, much of it aimed at children. Here are two examples, one from Disney and one from Charleston, South Carolina. The latter is a reminder that, no matter how far you run from the big leftist cities, the propaganda will find you.
During a shareholder meeting in April, Bob Iger promised those investors worried that Disney’s obsession with the LGBTQ+ agenda was affecting their bottom line that, moving forward,
Disney would back off from the culture wars:
“I think the noise is sort of quieted down. I’ve been preaching this for a long time at the company [from] before I left, and since I came back, that our number one goal is to entertain, I think the term ‘woke’ is thrown around rather liberally No, no pun intended. I think a lot of people don’t even understand really what it means. The bottom line is that infusing messaging as a sort of a number one priority in our films and TV shows is not what we’re up to. They need to be entertaining. And where the Disney company can have a positive impact on the world, whether it’s, you know, fostering acceptance and understanding of people of all different types great. But, generally speaking, we need to be entertainment for an entertainment first company, and I’ve worked really hard to do that.”
Doctor Who, which debuted on the BBC in 1963 as a children’s show and is now streaming exclusively on Disney+, should have fit comfortably with that promise. Even in its new incarnation, which began in 2005, the show has been minimally about sex.
The doctor has had romantic interests and even a wife, but they were plot-driven relationships. He was still a fundamentally non-sexual character. Captain Jack Harkness (John Barrowman), a sidekick who eventually got his own spin-off, was bi, but that wasn’t a strong plotline.
Now, though, the show, which streams exclusively on Disney+,
is going all in on gay sex.
