WarnerMedia, Disney and Netflix have now all said they will boycott the US state of Georgia after its state government moved forward with legislation that would ban abortion after an unborn baby’s heartbeat can be detected.
Hollywood has come out strongly against US states who are passing new laws protecting the right to life of the unborn.
Former actress now fulltime activist Alyssa Milano has even called for a sex strike until abortion on demand without any restrictions is the law of the lands across the United States.
Georgia’s “heartbeat bill” which prohibits abortion after around six weeks has provoked huge backlash from progressives and started a trend across the country with several other states following the Goober State’s example.
However, Hollywood believe they can blackmail Georgia, which makes billions of dollars from film and television productions, into backing down from protecting the right to life of the unborn.
The stance of Bob Iger, the CEO of Disney who says the law would make it “difficult” for the company to keep filming in Georgia has provoked some confusion however, as one would think that Disney, of all companies, would want more children in the world as they are its target audience.
