From Breitbart: Disney has reportedly decided to shelve an episode of the children’s cartoon series Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur, apparently over its plot concerning a transgender high school athlete.
The Mouse House has decided not to air the episode entitled “Gatekeeper,” which features story praising a boy who identifies as a girl and who battles against opposition to his playing on a high school volleyball team.
Several creators who said they worked on the episode which was originally set to air early next year took to the left-wing social media outlet Bluesky to decry the shelving of the episode. At least two who said they worked on the episode spoke out, but both later deleted their posts, according to Gizmodo.
“One of the projects (episode) I worked on is getting shelved because of which party that won the recent election,” storyboard artist Derrick Malik Johnson wrote before deleting the message. “It breaks my heart knowing this impactful and amazing [episode] is now about to be consider a lost media episode.”
According to Gizmodo, “a Disney source familiar with the matter confirmed that while the episode had been pulled from release, the decision was made over a year ago, and unrelated to concerns over the current political climate.”

“This is not the first time this show has peddled its filth, normalizing pedophilic grooming tactics with characters flaunting 2 Dads and Non-Binary identities. It’s crystal clear that #Disney and mainstream entertainment have abandoned all sense of decency, hell-bent on corrupting our children’s minds with their perverted, woke ideologies.”
