Disturbing Revelations: Ron DeSantis' Plans for "Dachau Disney"
JUNE 6, 2023
BY PAUL STREET
In the wake of the neofascist Florida governor contender Ron DeSantis’ promise to “destroy leftism in this country” if he becomes US president, new details have emerged about his plans for his state’s iconic tourist attraction Disney World. DeSantis is battling the theme park’s owner, the Disney Corporation, because of its opposition to his political war on gay and transgendered people. DeSantis, known to some Floridians as “DeFascist,” plans to place the giant theme park under joint state and federal receivership and have it turned into “Dachau Disney”– a vast complex of political repression and Christian white nationalist entertainment open to visitors who will be encouraged to “actively participate in crushing the left.”
The proposed new name is a not-so subtle nod to Germany’s Nazi Third Reich. As The Holocaust Encyclopedia notes:
“The Dachau concentration camp was established in March 1933. It was the first regular concentration camp established by the National Socialist (Nazi) government. Heinrich Himmler, as police president of Munich, officially described the camp as ‘the first concentration camp for political prisoners.’ It was located on the grounds of an abandoned munitions factory near the northeastern part of the town of Dachau, about 10 miles northwest of Munich in southern Germany… Initially the internees were primarily German Communists, Social Democrats, trade unionists, and other political opponents of the Nazi regime. Over time, other groups were also interned at Dachau, such as Jehovah’s Witnesses, Roma (Gypsies), gay men, as well as ‘asocials’ and repeat criminal offenders. During the early years relatively few Jews were interned in Dachau and then usually because they belonged to one of the above groups or had completed prison sentences after being convicted for violating the Nuremberg Laws of 1935.”
Later in the Third Reich and through World War II, the Dachau camp and its many satellite camps were sites for mass execution, medical experimentation, and forced labor inflicted on Jewish and other prisoners.
DeSantis has recently threatened to harm Disney World by building a state prison next door. Now insiders report that the prison DeSantis has in mind will be a key part of the new Disney complex. It will house thousands of liberals and leftists found to have “committed thought crimes” by “questioning American values.” Inmates will spend their days making national border wall components and their nights receiving instruction in Christian white nationalism, Social Darwinism, fetal personhood, fossil fuel mapping, free market economics, red meat cuisine, and American Exceptionalism among other topics. The Dachau Disney prison will host regular tours that permit visitors to shame and mock inmates. The prison will feature a special “It’s a Small World After All” boat tour past ideologically recalcitrant inmates who have been placed in solitary confinement cells partially visible to visitors.
