To Hypocrisy & Beyond! Disney+ Middle East Censoring Woke Lightyear Film, Baymax TV Show

Disney+ just went to infinity and beyond with woke hypocrisy by allowing its Middle East platform to censor its own pro-LGBT Lightyear movie and Baymax series because of their brazen rainbow content. 

Disney+ is not streaming some Disney movies with LGBTQ+ scenes on its Middle East version of the streaming platform, according to Fox Business. The self-censorship seems to be tied to rules from the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Fox News noted, saying, “The move seemingly comes on the heels of the release strategy for the platform with the standards of the United Arab Emirates.” Islam is the official state religion of UAE. Lightyear and Baymax will not stream on Disney+ Middle East due to scenes with LGBTQ+ content. Disney-Pixar’s Lightyear featured a same-sex kiss, while the Baymax kids’ series features openly LGBTQ+ characters.
