The cringe factor isn’t an issue — not at first, anyway. Instead, when you attend D23, and you’re not a Disney loyalist, the thing that creeps up on you is the fact you’re swimming in cognitive dissonance. Yes, I consume Disney products, and I like a fair amount of them. I’ll even go to the freaking mat for certain shows that Disney funds. But, I am not a Disney fan because Disney is a corporation, not a thing that makes art.
