The first time RILLA saw Mickey Mouse at Disney World he was in awe.
RILLA vividly remembers a spectacular light show on the water that featured the wizard Mickey himself.
RILLA loved the music.
RILLA loved the imagination.
RILLA loved the storytelling.
He vowed to work at Disney or a company kind of like it.
So to prove himself worthy of working at a company like Disney, RILLA poured his heart into his craft. He took it step by step, didn’t skip a single one.
RILLA created his own franchise characters.
RILLA practiced storytelling by writing stories and selling books.
RILLA even learned to design and build my own from website from scratch with a company that he helped cofound, RUMBLE X.
So when it came time to apply for the job, RILLA was ready.
Every application question RILLA answered with ease until one...

“How would you describe your sexual orientation?”
*******************************************************
The job was not to be some type of “sugar baby” or a chef at the Obama residence.
And yet, here a RILLA was filling out a job application being asked if RILLA was gay.
“What a strange company culture!”, a RILLA thought.
As RILLA contemplated the question further he realized, to his great dismay, that if he selected he was gay, he would be more likely to get the job.
How?
Well, asking what someone’s sexual preferences for a job is something Harvey Weinstein might ask of actors auditioning for a role.
For example, Jennifer Lawrence, was cast in the horror movie 'Mother' because she was sleeping with the director. Do you think the director asked about her sexual orientation ahead of time before he cast her?
Oh, yea. He definitely knew her sexual orientation ahead of time.
In 2024, even Presidential Candidate Kamala Harris, who was once one of Montell Williams’s side pieces, got her start in American politics by having a sexual relationship with Willie Brown.
Many have made the “business decision” to trade sexual favors for increased opportunities.
So as a RILLA read the job application, he realized in no uncertain terms, that his hero Mickey Mouse and dream company up to that point, DISNEY, was trying to f*ck him.
Surely this was some type of mix up, RILLA reasoned.
“They made Lion King!”
“This isn’t Hakuna Matata!”
America’s beloved media company would never try to f*ck its applicants right?
Surely, they would not want a RILLA to change who he is to get a job right?
Surely, they would hire only the best storytellers and artists on merit alone, right?
Because if that is all that mattered, surely RILLA would have the job.
You see, RILLA ain’t a no talent ho like Jennifer Lawrence.
And when it comes to the LGBTQ, one thing is for sure.
RILLA AIN’T EVER EVER BEEN ABOUT THAT LIFE.
So RILLA followed his heart and wished upon a star that Disney was the wholesome family media company that it portrayed itself as.
RILLA kept it a buck and marked “heterosexual”.
And he hit submit.
The rejection e-mail was swift and brutal.
The job rejection left a RILLA unemployed and devastated.
Over and over again, I would hear my haters mocking me, telling me I was not good enough to be a star.
But then I began doing research on Disney’s DEI programs and realized this was just the tip of the iceberg.
As it turns out, my suspicions were correct.
Since Obama legalized gay marriage in 2012, Disney has openly engaged in a practice of selling hom*osexuality and the LGBTQ agenda.
DISNEY AS A MEDIA GIANT
Disney is one of the biggest media companies in the world.
Disney owns 50% of A&E Networks. Disney also owns Disney Channel, ESPN, National Geographic, and ABC television.
Disney owns 67% of Hulu, 80% of ESPN+ and all of Disney+.
Disney+ is the third most popular streaming service in the United States, behind Netflix and Amazon Prime Video.
In the third quarter of 2024, Disney+ had 153.8 million subscribers worldwide, which is a 7 million increase from the same quarter in 2023. Disney+ has more than 13,000 shows and movies, and 8,000 hours of content.
As of August 2024, Disney owns at least 40% of the global media market. This amount is considered staggering, which makes Disney-produced media unavoidable.
A company this big can very easily disseminate any message it likes.
Disney chose to be the gay pied piper.
In spring of 2022, Karey Burke, president of Disney’s General Entertainment Content, announced on a company-wide Zoom call that as "the mother of two queer children"—she intended to drastically ramp up queer visibility within the Magic Kingdom, increasing characters in Disney productions that are LGBTQIA or other underrepresented minorities by a whopping 50 percent by the end of 2022, according to the New York Post via meeting footage obtained by journalist Christopher F. Rufo.
Likewise, Latoya Raveneau, executive producer forDisney Television Animation, in reference to her “not-at-all-secret gay agenda”, observed that in her productions she sprinkled in gay content “wherever I could, adding queerness. . . . No one would stop me, and no one was trying to stop me.”
Representation sounds good on paper.
But why is it that Disney seems so intent on promoting sexual ideology to children?
Mind you, only a fraction of the American public identifies as gay.
So why is it that Disney is increasing hom*osexual media by such great margins, almost as if to sell it?
As RILLA learned during the application process, Disney’s focus on hiring also seems to prioritize gay applicants.
The Acolyte, a Disney Starwars production, was directed by Leslye Headland, who is not only gay but ironically a former assistant to Harvey Weinstein. The lead actor Amanda Stenberg is also gay.
In an interview with The Wrap, they both gleefully described the Acolyte as the “gayest star wars” ever.
What are the odds Leslye Headland asked about Stenberg’s sexuality ahead of time?
Given Disney’s directed onslaught of gay propaganda starting in the mid 2010’s, is it any surprise that Gen Z identifies as the gayest on record?
And remember, there is no gay gene. Gay people do not reproduce. They recruit.
COUNTER STRIKING THE GAY DISNEY GOLIATH
Despite pouring my heart into my craft, RILLA lost out on a job because he is not gay.
To make matters worse, RILLA learned that Disney was some type of Gay Disney Goliath intent on turning a whole generation of kids gay.
RILLA could never improve being gay.
Not his vibe.
But RILLA also wondered, how many other young artists would “play ball” like Jennifer Lawrence or Amanda Stenberg to get ahead in media.
Greatly troubled, I turned to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for a plan to build my own Christian based media company, that would focus on good based storytelling and not selling sex to the kids.
For those, that aren’t familiar, in 1 Samuel 17, a heavily armed giant named Goliath talked trash to God’s people for 40 days and 40 nights, before a young shepherd rose up to challenge him.
Like the God he served, this shepherd was quite petty.
But he believed he could win only because of his faith in a higher power.
RILLA was same way.
