Right wing white people who complain about a fictional mermaid being black

Imagine how it felt having white actors playing historically non-white people?
You know...actual people who lived.

Well, my skin is white and apparently that makes me a racist these days 😒. Why are people like this? When and why are people just so obsessed with spreading hate but trying to make it sound like there being defensive?

@GuyWithOpinions I have a white skin too and no, apparently it doesn't. Literally no white person I know who's sane of mind has ever been called racist. Any single time I hear this line is from the "I'm not racist, but" types

@GuyWithOpinions I disagree with your opinion that it's gone that far, but apparently, hating the fact that they redesign existing characters instead of creating original characters makes you a racist, or some such.

No, it doesn’t. Only you know how you feel.

But people are complaining because a fictional character wasn’t being played by a white actress.
If it weren’t an issue to them, nobody would be talking about it.
