While you can argue that you shouldn't give Disney money in general, it's extremely hard to divorce the LGBTQ+ community that's formed within Disney and are literally throughout the parks. In fact, that's the community that needs to make their voices heard louder than ever right now.
Their closest competitor literally has entire sections of all their nearby parks dedicated to a brand by someone who uses her billions to attack trans people.
Going to Disney parks may put the money in the pockets of a shitty company, as does basically every other form of spending money on this planet, but I don't think throwing away something that's a cornerstone for some LGBTQ+ people or trying to guilt trip them for wanting to get lost in that escapism, especially as the current world feels like its collapsing in at all sides, is the way forward.
So yea, trying to paint people who go to Disney parks as "red flags" is probably not the best idea.
Encourage people to boycott Disney though, by all accounts!

Yes the well known group of theme park fans… LGBTQ people!
