Leftist Beau deMayo faces serious accusations from Marvel/Disney

The leftist TV writer who launched the X-Men 97 cartoon is now clashing with Marvel/Disney over his dismissal. The Hollywood Reporter gave some details about the case against deMayo, and it says:
Five months after Marvel Studios fired X-Men ’97 creator Beau DeMayo for mysterious reasons, the writer claimed Thursday that he no longer will get credit on the second season of the hit Disney+ show, which he completed work on before his exit. DeMayo made the claim on social media, saying it was part of a “troubling pattern” he endured while working for Marvel.

Marvel shot back soon after, and in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter, gave insight into his firing, saying it occurred after an internal investigation revealed “egregious” findings.

“Above is #XMen fan-art I posted on Instagram for Gay Pride in June. On June 13, #Marvel sent a letter notifying me that they’d stripped my Season 2 credits due to the post,” DeMayo wrote on X Thursday, along with an illustration of a shirtless version of himself as the superhero Cyclops.

DeMayo, who spent several years at Marvel working on a draft of a long-gestating Blade feature as well as on the TV show Moon Knight, added: “Sadly, this is the latest in a troubling pattern I suffered through while on working on #XMen97 and #Blade.”

Marvel responded by saying that DeMayo’s behavior was the cause of his firing and for him losing his credits.
I seem to recall he gave some chilling signs he sides with enemies of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby's Jewish brethren. One could reasonably wonder why nobody ever took issue with deMayo based on that. His fixation on figures like Cyclops and and Gambit is within the context of his lifestyle is insufferable.
“Mr. DeMayo was terminated in March 2024 following an internal investigation,” said a Marvel spokesperson in a statement. “Given the egregious nature of the findings, we severed ties with him immediately, and he has no further affiliation with Marvel.”

[...] On the surface, the notion that Marvel would strip DeMayo of a credit due to a social media post would stretch credulity, as outside observers note the gay Pride illustration is similar to any number of posts he made while employed at Marvel. And fired Marvel executive Victoria Alonso retained credit on projects she previously worked on following her exit in 2023. But the reveal of an internal investigation points to deeper causes.
Yes, that's right, it gets worse. According to the following from Discussing Film: If even half of what's alleged is correct, this is very serious, yet not very shocking after what actor Kevin Spacey was accused of doing several years ago, after the Harvey Weinstein scandal broke in 2017. So it's pretty amazing Disney would fire him, but maybe that's because, now that Bob Iger is back at the wheel, he's trying to mend the damage his momentary predecessor Bob Chapek caused after he turned Disney into a wokefest.

Let's also recall, while we're on the subject, that from an artistic perspective, deMayo sure made himself look like a hypocrite when he had the animators water down Rogue's hot looks, yet his LGBT ideologies and obsessions are such a big deal by contrast. And whether or not Gambit returns in this cartoon, for however long it lasts, deMayo's alleged fandom for the Ragin' Cajun conveyed through the lens of his lifestyle sure is creepy and atrocious, as are the changes to Morph. That's why it's regrettable if the cartoon is allegedly a success, though there are suggestions those claims are exaggerated. For now, Hollywood would do well to distance themselves from deMayo, based on the accusations against him at Disney/Marvel studios, which are very serious.

"So it's pretty amazing Disney would fire him, but maybe that's because, now that Bob Iger is back at the wheel, he's trying to mend the damage his momentary predecessor Bob Chapek caused after he turned Disney into a wokefest."

Yeah, about that, most of that wokefest if anything was started by Iger before Chapek even temporarily took over (let's not forget, their turning LeFou gay as well as having a gay background scene in Star vs. the Forces of Evil among other things happened under Iger's watch, BEFORE his retirement). And let's not forget Iger's the same guy who sabotaged the guys who made Path to 9/11 twice (and all PURELY to benefit the Clintons, not the American people, and certainly not Disney), and apparently one of his earliest stunts as CEO entailed using the Disney website to openly advertise Gay Days, which was a step up from what Eisner did (ie, made it even worse. And I'm not kidding about that, read here: https://www.foxnews.com/story/inside-disney?msockid=09ce8db39171613b32489f7b905d6045). Don't get me started on how Iger interfered with an attempted firing of Jemele Hall despite her using her position to fan hate against Trump simply because she "was an angry black woman."

More likely than not, Disney doing that was purely an attempt to cut losses after diminishing returns AND trying to prevent that Nelson guy from buying them out, and had absolutely NOTHING to do with Chapek.
