Why are people mad at Disney? The Walt Disney Company has been around for that long. Disney has been making movies and animations for audiences since 1923. Numerous classic and cherished animated films are available, including Snow White, Mulan, The Lion King, and countless more. For over 84 years, audiences have given Disney films great marks. In addition to being a successful film studio, the corporation developed a theme park in Florida called The Magic Kingdom more than 50 years ago. Twelve Disney theme parks have opened across the globe, and each one is a major tourist destination in its own right. The state legislature of Florida recently enacted the "Don't Say Gay" measure, which makes it illegal to broach the subject of sexual orientation in the early grades (K-3) . There was a protest by employees and cast members at Disney theme parks to denounce the bill when CEO Bob Chapek and other Disney officials failed to release a swift response.
