He was HyperCapitalist & staunchly AntiSocialist & even McCarthyite.

Precisely. Saying Disney is to Cartoons what Hefner was to Sex.
Then Leary being somewhat like that for Acid.
Each having their own Version & Brand of what those were - Selling it as Thee Only One to Masses...
& also ...that there's no denying that Disney & Hefner - were *very good @ those things* ! I am to some extent appreciative of each of these Salesmen...

Strange that Disney has objected to the DeSantis' Parental Rights in Education Bill (Don't Say Gay) and has become a target of Right Wing reactionary ire. Who would have thought that Disney would ever have taken a stance at all sympathetic to diversity.

Well - on one hand - Disney was always 'It's A Small World After All' - & appealed to Humanistic ideals. On the other obviously - was always Nationalistic & Capitalistic & subtextually Racist in the way a lot of Culture was up to & including 1950s...

Warhol. Hm. Interesting suggestion. A little more Underground & subversive ...Queer for one thing I think. Playing both sides in commenting on all that as Pop Artists - but playing the same game. Interesting... But I'm the one who said Leary ...not because he's really like Walt & Hugh - but it makes a point about him...

I saw a former Warhol executive comment in a doicumentary that in the middle of a meeting Warhol said he missed the drag queens and the speed freaks, and the executive said: "Hell, if you want to get shot again, we can leave."

Yes well. I'm always rabbiting on about the collision of Pop & Art in the 1960s. Because I do think it was a crescendo of things whose consequences we grapple with Culturally ever since...

The conflict has received a lot of attention in the USA media. It has turned into a complex legal dispute in which DeSantis has threatened to revoke a Florida provision giving Disney exclusive rights to develop the property around Disney World. Check out "Disney and Florida's Parental Rights in Education Act" on Wikipedia.

Getting Shot. Ahead of the curve in a way - but that was definitely part of the 1960s already. One example !
