Not surprisingly, the worst people on Twitter are quote tweeting this article and offering some of the worst takes I have ever seen.

Let people like what they like - it doesn’t hurt anybody

[The New Yorker @NewYorker]

For the most devoted fans, Disney has engineered an ecosystem of financial entanglement that goes far deeper than park tickets or merchandise, which keeps the magic—and the debt—perpetually compounding.

In 2023, Ashley, a freshman at Quinnipiac University, in Connecticut, had $15,000 in her bank account. Excited by her newfound freedom as a college student, she decided to start going on solo trips. Walt Disney World, in Orlando, Florida, seemed like an obvious choice. She went during her winter break. Then she returned, six times, in two years. Soon enough, her account balance had dwindled to just five dollars.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, many adults who have accumulated Disney debt seem to be chasing a feeling from their childhoods. One woman, who has been to Disney World more than a hundred times, said that visiting the parks takes her back to a time when she had fewer worries: “It’s the nostalgic feeling of what brought you joy when you were little and you didn’t have the stressors of adult life.” Read more about the Disney adults putting themselves in debt for the pursuit of magic: https://t.co/xS6ZMMKC0P

@Seth44111919 The park looks awesome overall and obviously need to reserve judgement until we ride, but Curse looks like a huge miss in the middle of an otherwise stunning land
