Well it seems like a huge leak. And if there's a place where there are illegal, woke, decisions taken it's Disney. For example there's a Disney exec who's been recently caught by an undercover journalist, on video, saying "we don't hire white men as such positions".
It is discrimination and it's totally illegal. I do personally find the "wokeness" of Disney also shows in their cartoons (it's just an opinion but several have that same opinion).
So for such things to happen, there may be a company culture of wokism in place at Disney.
If there's such a company culture and seen the size of the leak, it's very possible that they've been so dumb as to openly discuss how to be anti-white (e.g. both in hiring practices and in picking fictional characters) on their slack channels.
To paraphrase a well-known meme: *"You never go full woke: Disney went full woke".
I believe in the state of California, for entertainment roles, it’s perfectly legal to state you only hire a certain race, sex, etc. for role. If you need an Asian male for a role, it’s ok to say so.
Maybe go read the stuff and find this darning evidence instead of just running your mouth about Disney with a bunch of accusations?
It's not empathy when a person is passed over for a role because of their skin color due to unwritten HR policies, and people using the word "woke" are generally referencing the unethical and illegal aspects of such policies.
Trying intellectualize all of the goofy “woke” controversies over the last few years into “they just don’t like these HR policies” is just being dishonest.
Imagine if you had made that same comment in a case of the same discrimination against another skin color that wasn't white. Heads would roll.
So much for "having empathy for someone outside my identity group".
Given that many such comments also amount to gaslighting, that's what bothers people about the whole idea. It was a good experiment, but it's time to end the policies and the attitude it brings. There are better things to argue over, this isn't one of them.
