This still doesn't beat the ultra woke black people that complained Zoe Saldana wasn't dark enough to play Nina Simone

Sounds like they hate white people.
They could have gone with Bella Thorne instead, but if you put Thorne in a seashell bikini in a movie with a song featuring the line "Darling it's better, down where it's wetter, take it from me" you'd be lucky to a pull a PG-13 instead of a hard R.

How will this casting be harmful to the people you care about?
It won't be harmful, but...
My 6 year old niece loves her some Ariel. She has more Little Mermaid-themed crap than I can count. She even has an Ariel Halloween costume complete with a big orange wig. Granted that she's a child, but you don't think she's gonna notice when the movie is released and Disney trots out a black chick with dark hair as Ariel?

I'm failing to see how any of this is harmful to the people you care about.

Are you assuming they cant/wont change her hair color?

I hope she'd notice.

They will if they don't want a bunch of kids wondering what the hell happened to Ariel.

I didn’t even know there was an original book.
It's not a very happy book. Hans Christian Andersen had some demons.

Would you say that an anti-black agenda would not harm black people?
I’m not asking you to believe that there is any kind of agenda, I’m asking you to stop asking me why I would worry about an anti-white agenda I believed existed, as if that’s a sensible question.
It’s a logical position, whether or not it’s based on a misperception of the agendas at work.

Question still stands.
ETA: I mean, you talk about this agenda that's harmful to the people you care about, but refuse to say how or why?

I’m sure they will just for merchandising reasons for little kids. You hopefully won’t get the SJW tweaking as hard about natural hair since she is playing a freakin mythological creature.

I dunno about that. Social justice knows no bounds.
Case in point, the recent "freeing" of the animal crackers as a result of pressure from PETA.

I’ve been giving you serious responses, but it’s a stupid question.
To be clear, these are stupid questions: why do you, a white man with white children, care if there is a widespread anti-white agenda in popular culture? What harm could an anti-white agenda do to you and yours?
And to a-hole that hinted I would be saying the fourteen words, I don’t know them, and I deplore white supremacists.

You don’t accept at face value that an anti-x agenda is harmful to x? That’s weird.

Hollywood's hatred of gingers continues. I blame Pennywise.

Still remains.

ETA: Or if you can't point to any actual harm, just explain how this supposed Hollywood anti-white agenda is harmful to white people in general, and your family specifically... because I haven't seen it.

Doesn't bother me.
Normally I wouldnt care either but one would have to be pretty daft to not see the prolonged attempts at social engineering to preach white guilt via movements like “white privilege,” black lives matters, monument destruction etc.
If it really doesnt matter, why cast a black actress to portray a character depicted as a redheaded white girl for decades? The vast majority of the audience will be little white girls. Why not write an original movie for Zendaya?

Ok, my bad. You're just having the exact same conversation.
