(Red State)—According to new info, Disney/Pixar’s latest movie “Elio” was supposed to have the lead character, an 11-year-old boy, have heavy homosexual connotations.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, main protagonist “Elio” was to be based on the original director for the film, Adrian Molina, an openly gay filmmaker. Molina said his story wasn’t originally going to be a coming out tale, given the character’s age, but his gayness was to be heavily implied:
According to multiple insiders who spoke to The Hollywood Reporter, Elio was initially portrayed as a queer-coded character, reflecting original director Adrian Molina’s identity as an openly gay filmmaker. Other sources say that Molina did not intend the film to be a coming out story, as the character is 11. But either way, this characterization gradually faded away throughout the production process as Elio became more masculine following feedback from leadership.
THR reported that Elio would have a heavy interest in fashion and sport pictures of “male crushes” in his bedroom:
Gone were not only such direct examples of his passion for environmentalism and fashion, but also a scene in Elio’s bedroom with pictures suggesting a male crush. Hints at the trash fashion remain in the released film, with the boy wearing a cape decorated with discarded cutlery and soda can tabs, although without any explanation for the unusual attire.
As THR reported, the film was not very popular from the get-go, even failing to impress test audiences who unanimously noted they wouldn’t see the movie in theaters. When Molina showed the movie to Pixar’s leadership, they were likewise unimpressed, and Molina would soon exit the project. The film would then undergo heavy rewrites, and Pixar’s LGBT advocates seemed very disappointed by the changes:
“I was deeply saddened and aggrieved by the changes that were made,” says former Pixar assistant editor Sarah Ligatich, who provided feedback during Elio production as a member of the company’s internal LGBTQ group PixPRIDE.
An interesting fact that THR states is that many people left the project after the first screening of the film after the changes. This tells you that Pixar is infected with activists to a large degree. Once they began “sanding down” the moments that showed the child’s sexuality, Pixar employees were apparently angry.

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
