The suspension triggered strong responses across social media and beyond. Hashtags like #CancelDisneyPlus and #CancelHulu trended as users shared screenshots of their canceled subscriptions.

With cancellations surging, many subscribers reported technical issues. On Reddit’s r/Fauxmoi, one post read, “The page to cancel your Hulu/Disney+ subscription keeps crashing.”

        You think the global economy is going to collapse because Disney collapses? They make a lot of money as a corporation but that’s not important because they don’t pay any taxes.

                You know what’s even more realistic? Reality, the one where megacorps are funding a new wave of nazifascism around the world, just so they won’t get regulated.

                Wake the fuck up.

            The only way to get any resemblance of that is through govt. regulation. Since that’s impossible with the current levels of wealth inequality and moral bankruptcy, them failing is for the best! That and the noggin removal of the highest earners.

            I want them to be ethical.

            I’m gonna tell you something you shoulda heard a long time ago:

            Wish in one hand, shit in the other, and see which one fills up first.

        I have far fewer fucks to give about the “impact” of my boycotts than I have for my integrity.

        I refuse to give my money to fascists if it’s at all avoidable. I will inconvenience myself and pay more for alternatives, or forego things completely if I can’t make a compelling argument for having them.

        I have yet to hear such an argument for a streaming service.
