Thread about Disney 28,000 cast member video ad removed per suggestion

Thread about Disney 28,000 cast member video ad removed per suggestion by TLSnell1981.

I should have thought about it before posting.

I was touched by the cast member(s) losing her Disney job.

I wasn't thinking about being political, but now I can definitely see it is.

That just wasn't where my head was at 0100 in the morning.

I apologize.

And I found the DISboards posting Guidelines.

Board Guidelines:

Please take a few minutes to read our board guidelines. http://www.wdwinfo.com/guidelines.htm

Because of the large number of complaints of personal attacks related to these subjects and the inability of many people to keep a civilized conversation when discussing these hot-button topics, politics and religion will no longer be appropriate topics on our forums. Political or religion based posts or threads will be removed, and repeated violations of this rule can result in an infraction.

Political ads are currently allowed on the DIS? How did I miss this?

I didn' know. I'll remove it now.

Really? And you changed the name of your thread? May I ask why?

 

[Ssplashhmtn]

Can I go anywhere without having to think politics?

Probably to avoid to get points / reprimanded by a moderator?

No. Everything is politics nowadays.

But why make the thread about me?

No. Everything is politics nowadays.

Especially paid ads that include the politicians.

That is the problem. There are plenty of issues that never were considered political until a few years ago. Since when did public health become political? Simply baffling.

I think for the US, public health is and will stay political till there is universal health care and a couples of decades after.

Covid just intensified it. And it is an election year.

He didn’t make the thread about you, he mentioned you because you were the first one to point out his post. Ray is a very nice person and there’s no need to pile on him like this. He took the ad down.

There was no need to put her name in the title. He could take it out right now if he wanted to.

Agreed, probably should have just self reported the thread and asked mods to delete the entire thing rather than singling out a poster in the thread title.

The hullabaloo is completely out of proportion to the supposed offense.
Oh well.

Ray has been here forever and has never been a trouble maker. I think that he more than deserves the benefit of the doubt and to be allowed a possible mistake now and then.

Absolutely! Ray is not a pot-stirring dude, let's cut him some slack.

Without you pointing out this video, I wouldn’t have searched for it or known it existed. Thanks so much! Was able to post on all my social media and friends are doing the same.

 

[HiStitch626]

He already apologized and removed it.
