After the fired software engineer spoke out about Disney’s company culture and DEI, other Disney employees also came forward about issues with the company and Star Wars.
Former Disney employee and conservative author Peachy Keenan is currently slamming Disney’s Star Wars strategy, saying the company is of disneyland galaxy’s edge An attraction that revolves around the wrong version of Star Wars from the beginning.
Keenan said he was at Disney at the time of the land’s launch, writing marketing writing related to the rides, hotels, marketing and website, and spoke of deep dissatisfaction within the company with the direction of the project.

Keenan also responded to Disney’s change in policy: galaxy’s edge And it brings back some of the more familiar elements of the original trilogy.
