Sean Feucht holds massive rally protesting Disney's embrace of 'perversion'

Thank God for people such as Sean. We really do need to hold the line against perversion and deviancy in order to protect our children. That the woke are targeting the innocence of our youngest school children speaks volumes of the malevolent intent
Sean Feucht holds massive rally protesting Disney's embrace of 'perversion'
A prominent Christian worship artist organized a massive protest in front of Disney’s California headquarters as the company continues to face backlash over its response to a parental rights bill passed in Florida.
Sean Feucht, the former worship artist at Bethel Church and the founder of the Let Us Worship movement, held the “Hold The Line for Our Kids” rally at the Disney Studio Lot in Burbank, California, Wednesday. Feucht led the crowd in singing popular Christian worship songs while he and other speakers addressed the Walt Disney Company’s activism against a Florida law that bans school officials from engaging in discussions about “sexual orientation” or “gender identity” with students in kindergarten through third grade.
“We call for every wall of perversion to come down in Jesus’ name,” Feucht proclaimed. “We call for every wall to strip the innocence of our kids to come down. God, we pray that you would expose Disney for what it is, expose this corporation, bring everything that’s been hidden into the light.”
Feucht likened the battle between Disney and critics to the battle between David and Goliath documented in the Bible. “If parents in America would realize the power and the authority that they have, they could shift the economy of this place in one day,” he predicted.
The worship artist lamented that Disney was “actively fighting for children to be sexually indoctrinated as a kindergartener.” As Feucht spoke, participants gathered in the crowd held signs emblazoned with phrases such as “Let kids be kids,” “Boycott Disney” and “Disney stop grooming our children.”
While Disney is headquartered in California, it operates the popular theme park Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. Although the company initially declined to take an explicit position on House Bill 1557, dubbed by critics as the “Don’t Say Gay Bill,” outrage by LGBT activists over the lack of a response and outright condemnation of the measure prompted Disney CEO Bob Chapek to issue an apology and vow to increase financial support for “advocacy groups to combat similar legislation in other states.”
As Disney’s response to House Bill 1557 has made national headlines, writer Christopher Rufo of City Journal and the Manhattan Institute shared video footage of what he described as “Disney’s all-hands” meeting about the law last week. The footage revealed Disney officials discussing efforts to incorporate LGBT ideology into programming directed at children.
In one video clip, Latoya Raveneau, an executive producer at Disney, talked about how she had worked to include her “not-at-all secret gay agenda” in the company’s “Proud Family” reboot. She admitted that she was “basically adding queerness” to the children’s programming “wherever I could” because “no one would stop me” and “no one was trying to stop me.”
In another video, Disney production coordinator Allen March spoke about what he viewed as the need for “canonical trans characters, canonical asexual characters [and] canonical bisexual characters” to have “stories where they can … be their whole selves.” In a separate video, March acknowledged that Disney and other media have the ability to use content to influence the minds of the next generation.
Noting that American children are “getting all of this information from the media of what is normal,” March stressed that “there’s a lot of power to that and it just needs to be acknowledged.” Disney has not hesitated to use this power in recent years, as it has repeatedly introduced LGBT characters into programming designed for children.
In 2020, Disney’s Pixar animation studio featured its first openly lesbian heroine in the animated superhero film “Onward.” A 2017 live-action adaptation of the classic animated film “Beauty and the Beast” featured a “gay moment” that led to considerable backlash from the faith community.
In addition to Feucht, a Disney employee and pastors addressed the crowd gathered in person as well as those watching the livestream of the event online. Toward the end of the rally, Feucht informed the audience that additional “Hold the Line for Our Kids” rallies were on the horizon.
“I think we’re going to do this in Orlando, we’re going to do this in Anaheim, we’re going to do this until things change,” he said. Anaheim is the home of Disney’s other major theme park in the U.S., Disneyland.
Feucht set up a petition enabling people to “tell Disney that our kids are OUR kids,” adding, “They aren’t the property of the woke expert class who believe they know better how to raise our kids.” The worship artist reported that as of Friday afternoon, nearly 40,000 people had signed the petition. He indicated that he hoped to accumulate 100,000 signatures for the petition.
Opposition to Disney’s LGBT activism is not limited to those gathered at the “Hold The Line for Our Kids” rally. A group of Disney employees wrote a letter calling for a “politically neutral Disney,” warning that by “taking sides in political debates,” Disney is depriving the world of “a shared love we all have in common” for its “unique brand of family entertainment” that has “served an objective good in the world.”
The employees also maintained that “the Walt Disney Company has become an increasingly uncomfortable place to work for those of us whose political and religious views are not explicitly progressive.” They also reported that “we frequently see those who share our opinions condemned as villains by our own leadership.”

well done Sean. Thanks for carrying this battle in the culture wars directly to the enemy.
Funny how intelligent folk with advanced college degrees and who have compassion for their fellow men/women/planet are considered enemies by those who don't believe in anthropogenic global warming, biological evolution or even equality of the sexes.
Proud to oppose ignorant far right-wing fascist hate of the other.
If you are trying to refer to liberals, most are book smart, [deleted]
Several hundred people make for a massive rally? Christians must have their own dictionary.
The crowd is larger by far than you give them credit for but now Hold the Line is a National movement. [deleted]
Just like Trump's huge crowds that didn't exist except in his own mind.
“Christians must have their own dictionary.”
Defined by loaves of bread and fish to eat. It’s a miracle, no… it’s a sign…no it’s a metaphor.
No, it’s whatever they choose as the frozen chosen to define the narrative as fits the times.
The Church of Q and Donald J (Jesus) Trump!

Who would of thought that people would be upset some freak of a teacher is teaching 5 year old's the difference between tossing salad and rim jobs?
I guess the woke secular progressive elites didn’t have the first clue that that might upset us normal people all around America.
“…woke secular progressive elites…”
…only four adjectives today…someone is off their game.
Ok, fine! Woke cancel culture bicoastal secular progressive urban elites. Happy now!
Proud to be woke. Just means that I understand reality and history.
You are being ridiculous. That is not happening anywhere and you know it! Young kids ask all kinds of inappropriate questions which is just one of the reasons why it takes a college degree plus ongoing accreditation to get a state teaching certificate...
Exactly, a good teacher handles the inappropriate questions, avoids being the butt of jokes and stresses the need for good hygiene, like showering together.
Ask any elementary school teacher about the questions kids blurt out in class. They deal with it by the book. Nowhere are teachers giving instructions on sex or advocating for sex changes in any public school in America!
There are laws already on the book regarding the curriculum taught in all US public schools.
As a retired teacher who taught sex education, you are 100% right.
Then you should have no objection to laws being passed by Florida and many other red states to insure that students are not taught inappropriate things for their age level as part of a planned curriculum by any agency, school board or teacher or their guest speakers. Addressing a one off question by a student one time is not the issue here.
Curriculum varies by school district, county, and state as it should. Some places like Florida have better such laws than places like New Jersey.
I don’t have to go far to ask, my wife teaches kindergarten in NoVa.
K-3 has no sex education. Please find me the curriculum that has that.
Exactly, the new Florida law doesn’t really change anything.
Actually, it does. Children talk all the time. If a child comes from gay parents and says that, other kids might chime in. Even if the teacher redirects, they can be sued by the new law.
Who can be sued and for what?
Both or either the teacher and the district can be sued for any sex talk in the grades K-3 according to the new law. This means also that we are relying on children to give an accurate accounting of what happened in class.
Which part of the bill do you interpret that way?
authorizing a parent to bring an action against a school district to obtain a declaratory judgment that a school district procedure or practice violates certain provisions of law; providing for the additional award of injunctive relief, damages, and reasonable attorney fees and court costs to certain parents;
The part where some unfounded accusations from any parent can destroy reputations and careers without giving them due process...
I wonder if this includes charter and private schools or only public.
“This means also that we are relying on children to give an accurate accounting…”
Just imagine the ‘grooming’ already going on.
Violates certain provisions of the law.
Which provisions are causing you concern?
Which part is that, please quote the language.
Does the legislation leave that unaddressed?
Have you retired for the night?
Have you retired for the evening?
So you have a problem with conserving water?
Smarter people than me believe Florida's Don't Say Gay Law and other laws being similarly crafted by gop legislators regarding abortion and CRT are vaguely written specifically to incentivize complaints against teachers for doing their already highly regulated difficult jobs. Against women and doctors for practicing normal reproductive health. Making life more difficult for people without adequate reason.
Nowhere is it legal for paedophile teachers to groom children as their prey. Nowhere are Elementary school teachers encouraging children to become transgender. Sometimes pregnancies are terminated. Crafting laws that encourage reckless accusations that can ruin lives and careers unnecessarily out of spite that gays can get married and a black lady is on the Supreme Court are mean spirited and DUMB.
Until someone expressly defines exactly what is and what is not "teaching" about human diversity or civil rights or abortion rights then maybe the rightwing should cancel their gay witch burnings and heretic hangings.
Ask your wife. You said she is an elementary teacher. Does she need/want laws like these?
Smarter people than me believe Florida's Don't Say Gay Law and other laws being similarly crafted by gop legislators regarding abortion and CRT are vaguely written specifically to incentivize complaints against teachers for doing their already highly regulated difficult jobs.
So you don’t have any specific legislative language to cite, just notions that you’ve been told.
You said she is an elementary teacher. Does she need/want laws like these?
No, neither she nor I think that this law is needed. We don’t see the hyperbole of those for or against it.
No, not at all. Good clean fun.
Maybe tomorrow you can explain.
Give me a break. I find it very annoying when people get coy with their questions.
Is that what Joe Biden was doing when he showered with his daughter as her diary says?
It seemed like an upfront and straight forward honest question to me.
As annoying as reading assertions that aren’t backed up?
And the name of this teacher is . . . ?
Right wing cancel culture is real.
Kids today know the basics of love by kindergarten.
Teachers know how to address kindergartners and stupid laws criminalizing talking about it are krazy...
Groomers are being cancelled and that is a problem how?
Hundreds maybe thousands of teachers are fired for inappropriate behavior with students every year and nobody is saying that is a bad thing. "Gotcha Laws" crafted to criminalize the mere mention of alternative lifestyles in the current world are discriminatory bullshit.
Gay marriage is a real legal thing and so it is going to come up. Public school teachers deal with inappropriate comments and questions all the time. It is already a minefield. Nothing is going to change except for teachers in the states passing such stupid laws...
It is not. We are simply resisting woke left wing secular cancel culture and cancelling their plans to groom our 5-8 year olds
Please if you ever have any knowledge of any paedophiles working in education, much less grooming children for prey, then immediately report it to police and school administrators!
Nowhere in the United States is that allowed.
Where is this happening? At ShitIJustMadeUp Elementary?
Or maybe it was Our Lady of the Blessed Reach-Around Catholic School.
Then why are the woke progressives so opposed to the Florida law and those emulating it if the law only stops something not yet happening? It will happen in New Jersey in September and it happens in California cities now.
The law is a brazen attempt to marginalize members of our society. That’s why they’re opposed to it. Your fantasies about “grooming” children are rooted in 1950s bigotry that assumes all homosexual people are child molesters or something.
I'm having difficulty understanding the last part of your comment. For a minute there I thought you were implying that those you view as being among your political foes have been using classrooms across America to 'groom' small children for some kind of nefarious purpose. But you, being such a devout man of God, would never imply such a horrendous thing, would you? Of course not. So please explain what in the AF you meant by 'their plans to groom our 5-8 year olds'.
That's just as hyperbolic as claiming only groomers oppose it.
What’s hyperbolic about it? It’s exactly what they’re trying to do. They don’t mind if we talk about straight families - a mom and a dad, happily married and raising their biological children (begat via sexual intercourse). But God forbid we should acknowledge the adopted kid and his family of gay parents. That’s the bigotry behind this law.
A law that prohibits INSTRUCTING five year old about sexual orientation doesn't "marginalize" anyone. Why would that ever be a appropriate subject to teach 6 year olds? Do you think Florida teachers are instructing kids how babies are made?
It already is. We teach 6 year olds about male and female couples already. They read stories about families with a mom and a dad. Why not two dads?
We also teach gender roles. Boys and girls are identified by the gendered clothes they wear or the gendered activities they participate in. They are taught certain toys are for boys or girls. This has already been going on for a long time, but the new law wants to preclude any discussion of alternatives to these so-called "traditional" concepts.
As part of the curriculum? Not specifically, no. Which invites the question: why was this law necessary?
In any event, it will come up sometimes because babies exist and teachers and moms get pregnant.
Do you object to an acknowledgment in the classroom of gay parents? If so, what are schools supposed to do with the child of gay parents? Pretend they don't have any? Are we going to forbid this kid from showing pictures of his dads or talking about them?
There is no way that 5-8 year olds need to have any sex talk in their curriculum. Even Bill Maher gets this right.
Is there a classroom like that where they are teaching them about sex?
Exactly, the only real impact that this law will have is in requiring schools to tell parents when their child receives mental health services.
True. The law requires schools to make every aspect of a child’s curriculum and related library books available to their parents upon request. That’s a great thing about the Florida laws.
In what jurisdiction is a parent unable to get information about their child’s curriculum or the contents of the school library?
I’m also still waiting for a list of classrooms where they’re teaching 5-8 year olds about sex.
There are school boards that refuse to allow the curriculum to leave the teacher and the school site and make it difficult for parents to even visit their child’s school. This all came out in the Virginia school boards vs parents war last year that the parents won by electing a governor and attorney general openly on their side.
“…make it difficult for parents to even visit their child’s school.”
Where and why and to what end?
Am proud to be woke. Fuck all who are not.
Exactly.
All who are not…we on the right are awake not woke
Wait. This guy??? The guy with all the hair? Doesn’t he know how sinful and perverted all that hair is?
Seems like he might be part of the problem, eh?
/s
Yes, the same man originally from my home city who created “Let us Worship” when blue cities and states would not allow worship even outdoors even as other concerns like pot dispensaries and liqueur stores were opened indoors. He held large outdoor worship rallies in most big blue cities across America as well as my small red one. The difference is that Let Us Worship is a religious non profit while Hold the Line is a separate political issues advocacy group operating on its own in compliance with separation of church and state. He’s holding a Hold the line event in North Carolina today and a separate different venue Let us Worship event tomorrow
None of that matters. He prances around like a woman in his long hair, advancing the gender fluid agenda. I guess you endorse that, huh?
I endorse both his religious and political messages and both of his related groups.
But not his gender-bending hairstyle, right?
I’ve said it multiple times now. Is it really so hard for you to acknowledge?
What would you say to Jesus Christ about this if artist renditions of him regarding his beard and hair are even remotely accurate?
“What would you say to Jesus Christ…”
Many questions. Are these really the people you died for at the top of the list.
Respond to my point. I quoted scripture that says long hair disgraces a man. Are you calling Paul a liar? Are you saying scripture is wrong?
I do not care for his hair style choice and would never make that style choice myself. It’s not an issue that I intend to have my seed derailed by you on.
He died for everyone not for those on some list. I would bow down before him and call Him my savior.
Yes, God forbid you should face any potential hypocrisy in the movement to use the Bible to be cruel to people.
The Bible deals no more harshly with homosexual sex and the gay lifestyle choice people make than it does with any other sin or abomination before God or other sinful human condition. People who have lived the gay lifestyle have repented of it and then sinned no more and are as saved as any other saved sinner.
Yes and yes.
No. And no.
Since Jesus never actually existed, what his hair would have looked like is moot.
Have been wearing my hair long for a few years now. Told myself that after covid I'd cut it. Seems that won't be happening anytime soon. Considering getting back into the rock n roll business.
I wore my hair about as long as the nut in the picture for a long time. I was also playing a lot of guitar in those days. Guess it goes with the territory. But a few years ago, I decided to just cut it all off and keep it shaved. I’ve never been happier with my hair.
Considered going chrome-dome years ago but never got around to it.
Dealing with long hair can be a pain (it gets in my mouth when I sleep)..
But long hair does keep you warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer.
Been wearing it in a pony tail for the last year. Much easier that way.
I still would never consider either long hair or no hair at all.
Some companies have started tripping over each other to virtue signal the loudest in order to placate the vocal few far left wing nuts instead of keeping out of politics like they had been doing for years. They did this because they could do it without any blowback from the majority of people in the US that just want to be left alone and not get into the culture wars that the progressives seem to want so badly. Then the progressives and these virtue signaling companies decided to take the war to the kids. BIG mistake. There is more and more pushback including within the companies themselves and eventually companies will be forced to get themselves back to a stance of neutrality. I am looking forward to see employees bring charges of companies making a hostile work environment for those that don't share the woke viewpoints.
I agree with you 100% on this and think that shareholders should approach government regulators regarding fiduciary responsibility issues and the impact of people opposed selling out their stock driving down the price/value for those that remain.
“…fiduciary responsibility…”
Enron ring a bell?
A company I’m glad I did not choose to invest in.
