Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

Proud Boys getting their asses handed to them.
I just hope there's footage taken earlier in the incident that surfaces.
These Proud Boys got a whole lot more than they bargained for when they went to Manhattan to protest a drag queen story hour.

5 board members picked by Ron DeSantis to oversee the special district encompassing Walt Disney World admitted their Disney-controlled predecessors pulled a fast one on them by passing restrictive covenants that strip the new board of many of its powers

As someone who lived close enough to Disney to clearly see the fireworks display they have every night of every year for 7 years, this is just too good. My hat's off to the Disney board. Anything anyone does to oppose Christofascist DeSantis, makes me smile. Local Orlando news:

Boards of directors are elected by the shareholders of the co. Disney went public in 1957*.
Forming a corporation and electing a board of directors is a legal process stipulated by the state where you incorporate. Different states have different rules for the organization of their S corporations and C corporations, but all for-profit and nonprofit corporations are required by law to have boards of directors. The rules of the state in which you incorporate determine when they must be named and how many directors are required.
*Quite controversial, especially to his brother Roy Disney, was the fact that alongside this publicly traded business, Walt Disney ran a private family holding company originally called Walt Disney, Inc., then renamed WED Enterprises, then renamed Retlaw Enterprises, that he used to redirect money to his own family and heirs using techniques Roy found disgusting. For example, Walt built the Monorail and Railroad and Disneyland, but made sure his private company owned it so that Walt Disney Productions, the public business, had to pay his family for the right to use it. Between 1955 and 1981, the public business sent the private company $75 million, that came right out of stockholders’ pockets! I wrote an extensive overview of how he pulled this off, which you can read here...

But I thought they were preparing to go to war against tyrants? Being a rube just seems to get tougher all the time. Reality keeps getting in the way of alternative reality.

Disney's Lawyers Are Better Than Ron DeSantis's Lawyers. The Magical World Of The Rule Against Perpetuities.
...The agreements even make the new board get Disney’s permission before trying to do anything! Sometimes it’s awesome to behold lawyers at work.
As it turns out, seizing control of a lawfully constituted board doesn’t turn on a dime and while DeSantis talked up his plan to the fawning right-wing press, the old board continued entering agreements in the best interest of the area it oversaw. And the best interest of the area involved tying up the land in concrete agreements benefiting the company that drives all economic growth in the area and not the current governor’s polling in Iowa. Tying them up as long as the Rule Against Perpetuities will allow!
...DeSantis may well try to toss legally executed agreements in the rubbish, but there’s not a lot to suggest that the legal team assembled by one of the most powerful entities on the planet asked GPT to throw together a slapdash agreement.
The old board GAVE PUBLIC, CONTEMPORANEOUS NOTICE OF ALL OF THESE AGREEMENTS. If DeSantis could’ve been bothered to stop yammering to every cable news outlet about stopping the woke mob, he might’ve sent some lawyers to do something about these deals. But he slept on his rights — or more accurately the rights of the puppet board he planned to install — and the deed is now literally and figuratively done.
