Disney and DIRECTV have settled their carriage dispute, and it shows just how much power Disney has over cable and satellite companies when it comes to Sports and Kids content. Weirdly, Disney is hoping to REPLACE cable with Hulu, so good luck with that...

Stans of the recently canceled Star Wars Disney Plus series tried to flag specific anti-Disney Star Wars channels as "racist" so YouTube would demonetize them. It didn't work. In fact, Team YouTube said on Twitter/X that after review, the content doesn't violate their Terms of Service. Some of the personalities involved include other Star Wars YouTubers and Rewriting Ripley, an account that has been trying to tie anyone who doesn't like Disney Star Wars to "the alt-right" for YEARS...

The Acolyte is The Last Jedi all over again. That is, the media is blaming "racist, bigoted, homophobic, alt-right chuds" aka white male Star Wars fans for forcing Lucasfilm to cancel the series. Except the general public, which consists of more than straight white males, didn't watch it and it cost $180 million. This will get thrown back in fandom's faces for years...

Lucasfilm's cancellation of "The Acolyte" may be a result of appeasing a vocal minority of fans, repeating the same mistake they made with "The Last Jedi", and prioritizing safe choices over genuine storytelling.

00:00 Lucasfilm blames Star Wars fandom for The Acolyte's cancellation, echoing their response to The Last Jedi's backlash.

03:37 Lucasfilm may have cancelled "The Acolyte" due to fan backlash, repeating the same mistake they made with "The Last Jedi" by appeasing a vocal minority.

06:25 The Acolyte may repeat The Last Jedi's mistakes, sparking division and apathy due to Star Wars over-saturation and forced divisive elements.

09:02 The media, not fans, created controversy over racism in Star Wars, despite the franchise having diverse representation since 1998.

12:00 Lucasfilm needs to stop catering to the vocal minority and prioritize genuine storytelling over safe choices to save the franchise.

14:41 Disney is pivoting back to basics after costly failures like The Acolyte, prioritizing box office success over diversity and inclusivity.

16:51 The speaker argues that the backlash against diversity in Star Wars is a new phenomenon and that forced diversity in media is repetitive and unoriginal.

19:06 The general public's rejection of certain content, including Disney's Star Wars, is being mislabeled as opposing diversity and inclusion, when in fact they're tired of being forced into "wokeness" and lack engagement with the content.
