Responding to Counter Arguments, mostly

To address myself to the main counter-argument against me, I will first have to re-hash the counter arguments that will probably be made against my enthymeme, which should probably also be re-hashed...Ok, I will state my claim again, and then the main counterargument.

My Claim/Reason-Disney's specialized output has lost its ability to innovate, because it created a conservative, easily-angered audience.

Counterargument-The audience is encouraging Disney to be more proactive, so it cannot be making Disney less proactive.  If everyone is saying that Disney should take its ideas into the 21st century, how would this make it more likely to create movies that belong back in 1937?

Ok, here is my answer to the counter-argument.  I am not talking about conservative in the traditional, moral sense.  I am not saying that all parents are parochial Republicans.  What I am saying is that the parents of today are very definitive in what they think is right and what they think is wrong.  My definition of conservative for this paper is someone who is unwilling to accept that they are not always right.  (I will probably have to come up with a new word to express this in my paper, since conservative is waaaaaaaaaay too politically charged.)  So, someone can be proactive and also conservative for my purposes.  Someone who thinks that being proactive is the only correct way to be is a conservative, because they do not see the value of tradition.

Yeah, I am already seeing trouble with conservative.  So, instead of conservative, I will say...inflexible, or scrupulous, or picky.  Those words are so much better.  What I want to say is that parents who are being too picky are forcing Disney to only respond to what they want.  Disney has lost the ability to introduce new things to its audience, because its audience is not interested in new things.  Its audience is only interested in...what it is interested in.

So, even though parents are encouraging Disney to "be proactive", they really just mean "follow what we want from you more closely".  If the popular trend is racial equality, Disney is encourage to be more proactive and include its first colored princess.  Can you imagine what the parents would have done if The Princess Frog, or whatever it's called, was released before the Civil Rights movement?  It would be like Disney putting in a homosexual couple today.  The audience members are not asking for new things, unless they have already thought of them.
