Some context - Disney and apple are known to be pro left wing. These include ideologies around equality, feminism, LGBTQ rights etc which you can see in some of their shows/movies.

Elon Musk has centre - right ideologies.

Disney recently removed ads from X (Twitter) because Elons ideologies do not match theirs (an anti semantic tweet by Elon is the reason they gave for removing their ads)

Elon called them out in an interview that these companies try to "look good" in public but are actually "evil". These can be seen in some of their movies or cast where they say they promote feminism but are borderline Misandry.

Elons of the opinion that these companies use their Money and influence to force their ideologies onto people.

He said that the people can see what's happening will decide which side they are on. Some of these people have cancelled their Disney plus subscription because they agree with Elon

Probably a great summarisation to the question. I wasn’t aware of somethings here but good answer nonetheless.

I like Elon but the way he said FU to Bob Iger, I didn’t like it. Bob is a great CEO and respected businessman. Sure, ideologies don’t match but don’t disrespect people.

Lol. He literally made virtual scans of people without their consent to use as virtual background characters. For an actor, their face is quite literally their source of living. Bob Iger is one of the most hated people in the industry.

Can you please explain a bit more in this or provide a source where I can read more on this. This is news to me.

Elon musk is a crap person, he might have built good things (with excellent teams) but he is is a bad manager, leader. Working in his company for almost a year taught me nothing except how to deal with pressure and just say Yes to whatever comes from leadership. When he says “go f urself” its just ego and arrogance of money and power. No one in this world can sustain power and money without being humble. He will fall soon and his empire will be trashed.

people who think only wokeism is propaganda are already living in a conservative/right wing propaganda, they don't realise or accept it because it benefits them.
