A friend emailed me this as a joke asking me if I was going...No. I live on Long Island and no I am not going. You do not want to know how I replied. LOL.

This is not political....for planning purposes.
So here is the information and/or warning. LOL. FYI.

Pirates: "You be warned says I! Perhaps he knows too much...he's seen the cursed treasure!"
Crowded day maybe?
 
Wow. The fact that it's being called an "invasion" by the organizers is giving vibes of a group encouraging an aggressive attitude. Can't help but think there's a real chance of potential conflict with other guests here. Really wish we could leave politics out of the park. What's Disney's stance on political clothing, etc.?

Honestly this would encourage me to choose another day, no matter what side I was on. Drama is the last thing I need at DL. I would absolutely say the same thing if this was coming from the other side, particularly if it was worded in this way.

I did a quick search and also asked AI to see if there was a history of any other groups using the term "invasion" re: Disneyland. Only thing I could find was from 1970, when a group of "Yippies" staged an "International Pow-Wow" and said they planned to "invade" the park. According to ChatGPT, this is one of only two days in history that Disneyland closed early due to a disruption, the other being the assassination of President Kennedy.

Hopefully it won't come to this and everyone will behave, but given our political climate these days I have serious doubts. No thanks.

Earlier this summer, Disney clarified that political attire is acceptable as long as it’s not offensive (but the act of wearing such such is not offensive by itself).

I see a lot of politics at WDW and DCL but not so much at DLR. Recently we did a cruise with DCL. There was a family of mom, dad and son; collectively they weighed over a ton (not an exaggeration, the son - who must’ve been in his 20s - was so obese he had oxygen) and rode around in oversized scooters decked out for their favorite politician. The back had an an oversized t-shirt plastered to it that read “… won, get over it.” Lots of cruises felt it was over the top, but Disney said it did not cross any boundaries.
