And not only to authoritarianism. The fact that the strive for acquiring capital supersedes every other human pursuit in a capitalist society, is a threat to individuality. One’s life cannot be devoted to the fulfillment of our own individual needs. Instead, everything boils down to acquiring capital. We see this with artists. For example, all music tends to be similar, as music companies favor artists that follow a comercial formula, instead of favoring creativity.

@Luís Andrade Not at all, that is total generic filthy rich propaganda. You are most likely not rich enough or powerful enough to have actual economic freedom yourself in what ever capitalist system you are. "Democracy trough Consumption" or any other similar saying is corporate nonsense. As a Average or slightly higher income citizen like 50-100 k USD you have as much freedom economically as a pure Russian ethnic communist citizen of Moscow. Except its hidden trough layers of illusion and bureaucracy. Effectively speaking, we are still in a feudal system, some countries are just less violent in enforcing it then medieval lords. The true economically free in the average capitalist systems can bribe their way out of jail time for tax evasion, can afford to pay any fee and can bribe "democratic representatives" into changing any law. Only they are truly free and in effect are our lords and we the average income are their serfs. Force to buy the limited badly made products or limited free time making them ourself. Want an example, Making your own glasses for vision would take a couple of hours of studying and even more hours trying. The companies that make them have it automated, and cost between 0.01 to 10 us dollar to make(prescription lens included). You go into a glasses store and it will cost you 100-500 USD. The frame choice is limited to what "designers" deem in fashion for the year. The frames are poorly made out of plastic and can barely be adjusted so sometimes your force to wear one you don't like because it fits best and these days they break or scratch at nothing because they use cheap plastic for the lenses. You don't have a choice, you have an illusion of a choice made by people higher up and they make enough profit to pay there way into keeping the system like that. There are more then enough information out there about how you have no freedom except to walk down the street with a torch demanding change and even then, they will try to give you just enough for it to look like they did. There is a reason why in 50 years we may go extinct, either it's us for believing their nonsense and buying it, or them for selling to us the bullshit. Good luck reforming the system in time to stop a large amounts of death related to climate change. It's not the fucking tankies who will save us for sure with their genocidal maniac worshiping.

You can barely squeeze a person between some of them -Most "yards" are like 15 square feet of grass crammed between the garage and the neighbors garage -Houses that weren't like those were ludicrously fancy mansions. One in particular that stuck out to me is literally like an entire block in length. Like 8 houses could have fit on its plot -Because this is all still in freaking Florida, animals were everywhere.

The scary part is that we all seem to enjoy it. Hell even that mention of the evacuation is something that is wild. Can you imagine the preparation and organization involved in that? Makes you think we’d be better off with Disney in charge of the government. AND THEN you realize how crazy and terrible that would be.

It now make sense that Disney most iconic idea: "The princess" is value. Selling a princess for wealth to a King is just normal for a creepy corporation. It's basically telling the world of a goldigger is magical.

I once lived for a while in a Disney Town in Europe. It is called Serris, and it's a few kilometers off Eurodisney/Disneyland Paris. I called it "Mousechwitz", because it had a subtle eerie feeling of being a concentration camp for employees. There were other 4 Mousechwitzes as well, all conveniently isolated from one another. Older employees and even older managers were telling us, new employees, how even a couple of years before we came in, at the picnic tables outside our dorms, designated managers would sit down with us every single time to control our conversations: immediate censorship of the slightest criticism towards Disney and, much worse, the only conversations allowed not only at those picnic tables but indeed in every single public space HAD TO BE about how great Disney was and what a great opportunity we employees had at being allowed the once-in-a-lifetime luckly opprtunity of toiling away for our slave masters. Our private clothing was also strictly regulated: wearing a clothes item with a rival brand cartoon character would immediately bring you threats of immediate termination of your work contract. There were barely any shops in or around Mousechwitz (a very expensive bakery, a very expensive soulless bar, and a very expensive minimarket, all three of them would close at 5 pm). And there was no other transportation except the buses that took you to Eurodisney; so 95% of the time 95% of the employees would go to the Disney Village to socialize and spend our little money at Disney bars and Disney eateries & restaurants (even with our 1O% discount it was still very expensive). For the rebels from us who wanted to do our weekly shopping at a normal store, we had to literally take a train to another city, Torcy, where all the Disney employees were prayed upon by the local thug bands, right at the train station and all the way to the shopping mall where the supermarket was, so we had to organize to go in groups of 6 but despite that still got tauntedd, threatened and occassionally robbed and beaten by those thug bands. At the park itself as well as at the hotels or the Disney village, employees could be fined if not smiling enough 100% of our time. I remember a day, as I was waiting a row of tables at one of the restaurants of the Sequoia Lodge Hotel, where my manager gave me a Pluto certificate for outstanding work the previous month at the beginning of my shift (this came with voucher of about USD100 that could only be spend at... you guessed it, Disney stores), and at the end of my shift he deducted USD150 from my pay b/c while I was clearing away a table and thus having to go the dishwashing area (off limits to guests, as it should be) a guy who was sitting alone at one of the tables I waited at took the opportunity to sneak away without paying his bill - we had controls at the exit to make sure this didn't happen but the guy went away unnoticed. How the hell was I supposed to watch somebody trying to sneak away while I am in another area of the restaurant??

Ispira Nothing involving unregulated capitalism is truly ‘voluntary’. What happens to the people who already live there when this ancap place springs up? What happens when people inevitably want to leave because they can’t afford to survive? They’d either have to stay there slowly being exploited to death or else leave unable to support themselves and risk starving to death that way instead. Capitalism thrives by the upper crust exploiting the working class. Those who are most heartless thrive and those who cannot thrive starve. The good of the workers is never even taken into consideration when corporations are free to ignore it. There is no method of insulated unregulated capitalism that doesn’t result in hundreds to thousands to millions of people dying from poverty, depending on the size of the society.

You really hit the nail on the head about why Disneyworld's saccharine, picture-perfect manicure can in fact be deeply concerning, but I think that you didn't properly answer *why* then so many are happy to attend- indeed, even happy to not even question like they would were this a true governmental style. In my opinion, that answer is actually very simple: you can leave. Actually, I feel like that heterotopic 'uncanny valley' effect helps this; it is carefully calibrated to ensure that you do not take it all that seriously. You can laugh at the attractions, feel patriotic about the 'history', and enjoy the food because you know that it only exists inside this bubble, and that whilst you generally surrender agency within it, your entrance and exit is entirely up to you. As you pointed out, most of Disney's other such ventures failed because they were all-encompassing and long term, where people felt that they were stuck in a waking dream of a life. Willingly surrendering one's agency to a corporation is usually a nightmare, but when you know that the duration is up to you - and more importantly, that *none* of that orwellian control will follow you out of disneyland - it becomes infinitely more palatable to just 'go with the flow' and avoid looking to closely at those candy-scented chains hanging at the corners of your vision. At the very least, knowing that you need not exert any effort- that in exchange for a lot of money and freedom, the world will instead pander to *you* for a week... well, the novelty of the experience compared to the grind of 'normal' life is itself part of the appeal, perhaps moreso depending on your situation back home. At least, that's what I got out of MY visit to the place! -A tourist from India
