Which Disney cancelled because they're awful in multiple ways.
I ran across some people talking online about how odds of the show being resurrected for a proper third season from letter writing and petitions are about the same as the odds of a unicorn appearing in my bedroom, which led to other people commenting that they wished some other media company would pick up the show.
Which really does seem to me to be wishful thinking. Does Disney ever give up any sort of media, to anybody, for any price? The unicorn thing seems more likely.
Speaking of Disney, I'm not sure how to feel about this.
On the one hand, this is stupid petty tit-for-tat, and not only is it obviously wrong to target any entity specifically because of their political views but Disney is definitely not "woke" in any sense of the word, sorry.
On the other hand, those copyright laws are absurd and harmful to society, and copyright all around should definitely be shrunk down to reasonable limits, because c'mon. Also, the mealy-mouthed claims by media shills that super duper long copyright protections are necessary to protect creators pale in the face of the fact that well, they don't. (It's things like that which make me okay with media piracy. At least some of the time, anyway.)
I think I ought to mostly come down on the former, if only because they didn't just hint at the goal of this legislation but stated it outright. Not classy at all.
