Shrek as a franchise was created as a send-up of Disney movies at the time and thus included a number of subversions of common tropes: a mean ogre as the protagonist, a princess who embraces her curse, a villain modeled after Disney executives, and a number of irreverent jokes. In 2023, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish continued this tradition by subverting current Disney movie trends, in that the new Puss in Boots had villains who didn’t bore me to fucking death.
so if I’m getting this right, not only did Elon Musk just essentially publically admit that he fired a guy from Twitter because the guy has muscular dystrophy, but said guy was literally on a Do Not Fire list because he’d sold his company to twitter, took it as wages so he’d pay higher taxes to give back to his home country’s welfare state, AND his contract stated that twitter would need to pay him millions of dollars if he was ever terminated?
we’ve passed beyond absolute scenes. we’re in the realm of Ultimate Scenes.
See usually we cannot enforce the Americans with Disabilities Act thing that says you can’t fire someone just because they’re disabled… because normally we cannot PROVE that’s why. If Musk publically tweeted anything that looks like a good case…. whoooo hoo, I hope the poor dude has energy to sue his butt so hard.
