Oh I agree, I'm sure that Disney's motivation was clearly not completely altruistic, and the man used social media because it's a way to generate easy pressure on a large bureaucracy that would otherwise be ignored.

I'm not going to criticize a dying man 2 hours of escapism from the reality of his impending demise just because it's not the choice I would make. This is the same mentality that criticizes people for shopping at Walmart; when Walmart may be the only choice they have to provide all their needs cheaply. Such double binding conundrums of complicity are built into the system, and criticisizing other working people for the choices they make is a form of neo-calvinist puritanical judgement that I would hope to leap beyond.

Your outrage is better reserved for the merchants of death that encourage constant systemic class oppression and violence, that at one single man. I understand it's harder to despise a system, or an bureaucracy than it is to personify that disgust in one other type of human being - but that's exactly the divide and conquer spectacle the Neo-Fuedalist Capitalists want us to engage in.

Another human being wanted 2 hours of escapism before death, he didn't harm anyone to do it, let him have it and whatever dignity he chooses to have even if its not your path.

I can think of far worse things someone could want on their deathbed - revenge, recrimination, guilt, legalistic post-mortem power fantasies disguised as a will.

This guy wanted to watch a childhood entertainment. Would it be any different if he wanted to see a live jazz performance? or stare at the Grand Canyon? Do not confuse the simulacra for the form, it just makes you as judgmental and blaming as the Westboro Baptist Church.

Idealism is a wonderful thing, compassion is better.
