Republicans are withdrawing public support from Disney. No one is cancelling them. Disney has badly miscalculated the public's mood and needs to backtrack and make amends. They need to take concrete steps to reintegrate themselves into American culture. Or they can go extinct, and they won't be missed.
What is wild to me is, you're actually right about some of this. Republican voters (especially in florida) are just dense enough to not understand the repercussions of Desantis' decisions, and will still blame Disney. Disney isn't going anywhere though. They'll either fund one of the largest legal battles against a state any of us will recall, or simply pack up and leave, leaving millions in the state to now fund the bills left behind.
Oh, and all those who lose their jobs over this will quickly learn that florida is not one of the friendliest states to workers who lose their jobs. And those dense bastards will blame Disney.
I mean, have we forgotten what kind of money Disney actually has and brings to that state? Short of the panhandle beaches, Florida is a miserable shitty fucking swamp with Disney smack in the middle of it.
