This is a classic example of Agency Theory 

You can usually tell by how many "committees" or "communities" they have within an organization. Many of these niche groups lose sight of the company's business direction (make money) and create their own goals that they as a group want to see implemented. Disney, Google, Target, etc are all very successful companies which means they can afford to have some decay within their organization without it killing their bottom line. They also get virtue points which allows them to attend private and lavish parties without any personal or financial risk. 

While slow at first, decay usually moves exponentially. Google is currently having trouble managing some of their ideological staff, and this has cost them lucrative business opportunities in the defense department. Starbucks shut down their own operations for half a day to please only a portion of their consumer base. In both cases it won't hurt them with share holders now, but slowly it kills them over time as these issues compound. 

For the time being Infinity Wars can make up for the losses from SW and a Wrinkle In time, but that will not always be the case. Unfortunately, most businesses don't see this problem until it is too late, and it is even more difficult to remove these entrenched groups once they have moved in. They will go out kicking and screaming, and leave the company to flip the bill.

Yeah, nope Disney had a lot of other bombs besides Solo and A Wrinkle in Time recently.  Like the Alamo, Mars Needs Moms, John Carter, The Lone Ranger and The Finest Hours just to name a few.  And none of those bombed because of SJW.  As I said before movies pretty much bomb because they are bad not due to some SJW backlash. 

The SJW crap did hurt A wrinkle in time, no doubt about that. 

 

I never heard about that before, and when it released in theaters I was looking for something to watch so I watched a trailer of it. My thoughts at the end of the trailer were something like "Some SJW black female teenager empowerment TV movie level garbage", and I never paid attention again to this crap. Even if critics said that it was awesome, I would consider it political agenda and never see it.

 

I'm sure I'm not the only one.
