The Little Mermaid Dropped 56.7% At The Box Office In Its 2nd Weekend.

As to the race changes, or whatever we would call it, I realized that it might have seemed quite silly to have a bunch of white guys doing that rap.

It's not as if I've never given Rap a listen. I simply hate it. Complete garbage. Moreso than Stockhausen or Boulez or Justin Bieber.

I asked Microsoft Bing + AI for the exact English translation of Delenda Est.

It came back - "Delenda East"

LOL - A famous stripper?

Bing + AI - saving the world, one word at a time.

Oh goodness! In case you didn’t look further it means “must be destroyed “ from some old Roman quote Carthage delenda est.

Carthage definitely was iirc.

I’m not fond of Hamilton either, and if anything, I already pegged that using Lin-Manuel Miranda as the helm of the remake was going to be a huge mistake even BEFORE they race-swapped Ariel.

I don’t like race swaps, period, to established characters. I don’t care if they’re factual or fantasy, don’t race swap. There are also plenty of blacks who hated how Ariel was raceswapped, so don’t you dare claim only whites hated it.
