I swear to you, sitting a throne is a thousand times harder than winning one.

Yes, Disney is more evil. Walmart doesn't try to have a monopoly by buying out Target or Kohl's. McDonald's doesn't try to have a monopoly by buying out Burger King or Jack in the Box. Starbucks doesn't try to have a monopoly by buying out Dunkin' Donuts or Peet's.

Disney is trying to have a monopoly. Monopoly is a fun board game, but in the real world, monopolies in business are as detrimental and evil as dictators in politics. 1 politician shouldn't have so much power in politics and 1 company shouldn't have so much power in business.

You seriously do not not grasp how stupid/ironic this is do you.

Disney is obtaining 21st Cenntury Fox - its film & TV production/distribution...and you claim that it gives Disney too much "power"

Well at the moment it is owned by a company that owns or is the major shareholder of...

2 book publishers including Harper Collins

26 Australian newspapers

4 UK newspapers including The Sun and The Times

Over 20 US newspapers including the New York Post

Various other papers in other countries

Over 20 magazines

Fox News Radio

Various radio stations in the UK

Around 10 TV & Film studios

3 TV broadcasters in the US, as well as stations in the UK, Uruguay, Bulgaria, Romania, Serbia, Georgia, Israel, Latvia, Austraia, Italy, New Zealand

Satellite Television companies in UK (including Sky News), New Zealand, Italy Germany, India, Australia, Hong Kong, China

Numerous cable channels in USA under The Fox name including Fox News, and many other not under the "Fox" banner

All overseen and controlled by the Murdoch family...the head of which is a confident of the current POTUs, was credited for swinging a UK election and whose newspapers hacked the phones of many celebrities as well as innocent victims of crime including dead children.

or it could be sold to Comcast. A major telecommunications company that also owns or is the major shareholder of...

Numerous other communications companies

NBC television

Over 30 local US TV stations

At least 6 news channels

9 Cable channels

Universal Pictures, Amblin, Dreamworks, Focus Features, Carnival Films

So why is the sale to Disney so bad when the options are is stays with the far more powerful and influntial organisation its currently part of, or makes another organisation larger and potentially more "powerful"

In all honesty you don't care do you. It's just your weird hate for MCU and therefore Disney makes you feel like you have to complain.

Personally I only care because a) it means Marvel finally owns all it's properties and b) its a reduction of the Murdoch families holdings.
