[@SilverAlex92]

If there is one of those things you really wish you could forget just to experience then again, this ERB has to be it. Disney's total dominion here is not even for debate, every bar was a scary heavy hitter one after the other. Every part of his performance gave me chill. "In fact I own this whole series" is such a meta flex too, considering that at the time Disney DID own ERB, and that ending with "Gaze upon my empire of joy!" followed by the instrumental ending is such a somber and amazing way to end the battle. There is no question of who won, nothing else to say, just absolute dominion by Disney owning everything and everyone involved, literally.

[@empath69]

@@Zecer00 Your father has some pretty rose-tinted glasses; Walt was a fanatic for his art, willing to grind to dust anyone who got in the way of it. He created a virtually-sovereign state inside of Florida to run his company as he wished, without pesky governmental labour laws. EPCOT was intended to be a 'company town' where all his employees and their families would live so he could have control over them in perpetuity. A passionate man, but still one with fanatical fervour that did MUCH ILL to his overworked employees. The Disney company just kept sailing along the course Walt had set, after he died. And in point of fact, decades of outside influence and different visions from the subsequent 'monarchs' have resulted in 'The Mouse' softening compared to what Walt would've wanted.

Dickensian doesn't even remotely capture the level of industrialized, digitalized, AI-ized horror the American corpocracy has managed to inflict upon humanity since old Charlie handed in the dinner pail.

Look at your licence if you have one and you would see that your name is capitalised. This is also true for your birth certificate or any other government documents. The reasoning behind the capitalised names is that it's a language in symbols. Search up glossa. And also the language we are speaking is called dog Latin, not English. Dog Latin: a-debased-form-of-latin. English is made up of several different languages including french, Scottish, old English etc meaning that any 2 languages cant grammatically exist and does not make sense.
