The Disney Adults keep buying the products for their very small children, kind of like how Star Wars survived during the "VHS era" with the exception that the kids actually liked star trek.
Also never forget that most people don't follow "the discourse" and while they might make approving noises about trans people occasionally don't know any (open) trans people.
Case in point, a fairly trad Catholic Church had to my knowledge 5 open trans/nb people in it. None of the congregation knew (save a few leftist holdouts) because they either came there after their transition or were heavily closeted when coming to church but no where else.
