Gf said this wasn't a big deal and had an issue with me joking about it. When I asked if she'd be as accepting with the Princess and the Frog princess, Tiana, being a white actress down the line she immediately pulled the "well, that's different" BS. Of course it is babe

Because it’s cultural appropriation
Which I thought wasn’t allowed in the woke world

Maybe because it looks like a terrible movie?

No surprise that a having a black person being Little Mermaid can’t be handled.
Chloe Bailey took harassment as well last year for her dance moves and body display on Instagram.

Sounds like it's time for an upgrade baw.

Maybe everyone is disliking the movie because Halle is not nearly as hot as her sister Chloe. If Chloe had been cast as Ariel, I'd be seeing it at least 3 or 4 times in the theater.

SHAME

I don't think your question is relevant. It just looks like something that I'd never watch. The color of her skin has nothing to do with that. I really don't care.

I thought they had disabled it across the board anyway

shite like this is why it'll catch steam and then the movie flops. They'll have the excuses ready to go!

Wrong? Absolutely not.
It's the force feeding and blatant over representation of 13% of the population that grinds people's gears.
Frankly, the movie is about fish people. I could care less about it, but this was low hanging fruit for the woke crusaders.
Add to the fact, this girl is kind of ratchet looking. Not a big fan.

Can’t wait for this stuff to come full circle and the Black Panther remake is made staring a white guy

Wrong. That is not a mermaid. That is a siren. Big difference.

This.
If Tiana, Mulan, Pocahontas, Esmeralda (Hunchback), or any other character known for being a minority was white in a future version, shite would meet fan.
Do I particularly care? No. But I’m going to take the piss out of the situation because I find it funny they are getting so defensive over people not liking it.

They didn't previously remove the dislike button, they just hid the dislike count. There are browser add ons that allow you to see how many people disliked a video.

I don't think it's particularly woke (yet) and I don't really care either way
But I think the annoyance at a character who is universally understood to be white with red hair being turned into a black girl is understandable in an age where filming any piece of literature with a gay person, a black person, etc. without a person with those attributes is highly controversial.
In general I think the complaints are stupid, but I do think it's hypocritical Hollywood stuff. Maybe if I had a daughter looking forward to this and she was miffed that they changed the main character for diversity's sake I'd care a bit more.
