The public policy director of Equality Florida spoke to HuffPost about the new law and what it could mean for the state's queer youth. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' argument against Disney stinks as much as the one he made against Le Pew. While campaigning for Adam Laxalt in Las Vegas on Wednesday, he once again criticized Disney. The company, which is one of Florida's largest employers, has denounced the Don't Say Gay law. One of the things that bugged me was the videos with Disney people talking about how they wanted to inject sexuality into the programming for young children. The governor was seemingly referring to a Disney executive who said she has two queer children and supports featuring LGBTQ characters in future projects. When we were young, we could watch cartoons and not worry. “When we were young, you could watch cartoons without having to worry.” — Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) again baselessly claims Disney is injecting sexuality into cartoons while stumping for Nevada Senate candidate Adam Laxalt pic.twitter.com/7FrKGGjzLT

Many users were reminded of cartoons of yore, especially the hijinks of one of the world's most popular animated characters, Bugs Bunny, who appeared in Warner Bros. Keep scrolling to see the argument like the Road Runner attacking Wile E. Coyote.
I am once again here to remind you that one of the most famous Looney Tunes episodes involves Bugs Bunny tarting up, riding around on a thicc ass horse, and giving Elmer Fudd the weirdest boner of his life. https://t.co/wacqpEAzrA

I just want to remind everyone that Bugs Bunny was not the only Looney Tunes character to cross-dress or participate in gay weddings, though he was usually involved in some capacity. pic.twitter.com/I3EH9SqlEn

One time the Animaniacs did a Poirot parody where Yakko says to "dust for prints;" Dot returns carrying Prince and Yakko says "no, FINGER prints," to which Prince raises an eyebrow and Dot says "I don't think so."https://t.co/2pXW5K0RjV

I 100% understand why bugs bunny is trending in response to this. But, I mean, Disney had always "injected sexuality" into their messaging.... mostly around the idea that women's whole goal in life was to be "saved" by men... y'all didn't seem to have an issue with that message.. https://t.co/wRxELMxnRe
