I mean, I'm kinda on their side with this. They majorly changed an iconic character who had a distinct appearance. Ariel is pretty much an icon of the 80's kids back before the internet, so the public zeitgeist was a lot more common and shared, rather than fractured with a girth of media options like it is now. Everyone knew and had an image in their head of Ariel.

Normies don't know who tilde Swinton's character in dr strange is, especially before but even after the movies.

To point out such things online is racist, or being a weirdo who's mad about a kids show. Yet here we all are, posting about it again.
