Disney is not an Ally. Clearly a role made for Hunter Schafer.

This casting is a great example of shite no one would have given a frick about until liberals started losing their goddamn minds every time somebody was cast in a role that didn't exactly match whatever it was previously cast as

Of course the liberals will disingenuously scream whataboutism now but that's pretty chance because they know they started this shite

I thought it was that she-devil Grande.

Therefore, my comment is now rendered useless.

Clearly Disney is trying to break the stereotype that blacks can't swim.

Can’t they just stick to the cartoon?

If you want more black actors then create more Disney stories with blacks. But to take a cartoon that already has a character with an established look and change it? Doesn’t make sense.

It doesn't bother me. Denzel being in Magnificent 7 doesn't bother me. If they're the best for the part, cool.

It'll be a little wierd when someone of a race plays a part different than what I would say is usual, but I have no real feelings towards it.

Holy crap, that means I'm not racist. I must be a democrat now, right?

Well I gotta say that I haven't seen many black women cast or portrayed as mermaids.

I won’t be seeing this. Though the casting is not why.

The Soviets used to call those here who turned a blind eye to what they were doing "useful idiots".

Congrats, you are the 21st century version.

Don't really care

And other than a few people complaining on the internet, most won't care either.


But swap the races and there would be riots

My boss, who happens to be black, says it's because no matter what species, blacks don't swim.
