I mean, yeah?

Getting angry at the race of the actor portraying a character is still getting mad at their race. Ariel having luminescent white skin is somehow not integral to the story of the little mermaid, despite how badly the right wing outrage machine wants it to be. She could be loving green and it wouldn’t matter.

Notice how no one ever complained for decades when white people portrayed non-white characters until the racism drat started to break down and become unsustainable.

There was a point in cinema where Asian people were almost exclusively played by white people with extremely racist accents and facial expressions.

Maybe I'm just cynical but I feel like movie companies are going to journalists/websites and saying "look at all this hate we got". This amplifies and publicizes the hate and creates an atmosphere where it's impossible to actually discuss the movies. This is atmosphere would be convenient if you are someone who makes garbage.
