Yeah, no one was disgusted and outraged when watching the George Floyd video.. no one..

This is what the cesspool known as Twitter thinks of us:

Shawn has flip flopped about 20 times on this issue. He’s went from “disliking the live action segments but enjoying the animated segments”, to “hating the entire movie but being against Splash being rethemed”, to “still being against the retheme but calling for removal of Zipadeedoodah outside the ride” to finally “you’re racist if you want the ride to stay as it is”.

To say I’m disappointed and hurt about it is a bit of an understatement. I’ve tried to learn from him, to support him, to be his friend, to promote his stuff, to be an “ally” as he says. But to see him take this definitive stance that “you’re awful if you like the original ride”? Really dude?

He knows I can see it. He even made a jab about me wanting to end my life. Yeah, I’m not mentally well. I probably shouldn’t be spending time on Twitter, but you don’t know what’s wrong with me, or what’s happened to me.

But I can’t confront him about it for even disagreeing with him or feeling hurt by his words because he would try to end my life as I know it.

He’s right when he says we need more black voices in the community, cause a person as hate filled as that shouldn’t be the only one to represent a whole group of people. Combatting hate with hate only leads to more hate.

So, people shouldn't change their minds or opinions about anything ever?

It’s super creepy that someone took the time to make that thread.

They conveniently dodged any of my takes, because they still want to be “my friend”, while simultaneously sh*tting on me and making fun of me with “subtle” tweets.

What point am I missing exactly? I posted it because people paint Splash defenders as racists.

I have no idea who the twitter guy is.. but I love your sentence below!!

I’m so sorry, that’s terrible. No matter what side you’re on, nobody deserves to be treated like that.

Here it is

And here’s the other one

And here’s the other one

I just checked out his page. The guy sounds full of hate, desperate for attention, need to be a victim..basically quite unstable.


Anyway..,My avatar had a lyric for everything..

Don't let no one get you down
Keep movin' on higher ground
Keep flying until
You are the king of the hill
No force of nature can break
Your will to self motivate

 

[Brer Oswald]

Its over for me.

 

[Matt_Black]

Its over for me.

We may not see eye to eye on a lot, but I hope you're okay. If you ever want to vent, my message box is open.

I just want to say that Splash fans, at least the ones I’ve come across, are some of the nicest, most reasonable people the Disney fanbase has to offer. I’ve never gotten the impression from any Splash fan that they think black people are inferior.

Yep. We're really doing a great job of patting ourselves on the back for not being racist.

What are you trying to say?

 

[Chi84]

What are you trying to say?

You don't get some kind of weird credit for not thinking black people are inferior.

Woke warriors fling the racist word as freely as monkeys fling feces, only I think the monkeys have a better understanding of what they are doing than the woke warriors. Those clueless warriors just use the word as a catchall for anyone that doesn't believe what they believe.

I only felt the need to say that because of how Splash fans are painted. Although I can see how that might have come across in a displeasing way.

With his candor, he sure seems like a reasonable fellow doesn't he? What a false juxtaposition.

Here’s a much better idea Disney, I know you’re reading this:

1. A Princess and the Frog ride does not naturally fit in Frontierland, the location is slap bang between Peco Bills and Big Thunder.

2. Wouldn‘t it be better if Tiana takes you on the Liberty Bell river boat around the back of Tom Sawyer’s Island (as a short preshow of sorts). This could work similarly to Enchanted Tales with Belle, allowing a fairly large number of guests to interact with Tiana Up close but with a natural time limit built into the experience (cheaper).

3. The Liberty Bell docks at a 2nd North Dock area, where guests disembarked to an expansion pad on which the ride and Tiana’s restaurant is located.

4. An additional train station could be incorporated into the design of the area, giving guests a different way to get there and or travel back.

This scheme would truly be an addition to the Magic Kingdom of which everyone would be delighted, and beloved Splash Mountain could remain untouched.

I have even made you blueprints

Of course this is a better option- but you’re forgetting, Splash Mountain is a terribly Racist ride & needs to be overrated ASAP. Especially by the lone black princess based off a European, white princess.

At the end of it- decisions seem to be based on, when in doubt, racism.

I use something called common sense. The phrasing of the chorus is too close to be coincidental. I know anyone who likes the song will just choose willful ignorance.

Try to sing Zip-a-dee-doo-dah to the tune of Turkey in the Straw. It doesn't work. The meter of the chorus is completely different where Zip-a-dee-doo-dah is basically a short 9 syllable/line chorus, Zip **** uses a much longer 14 and 13 syllable/line chorus.

Zip-a-dee-doo-dah, zip-a-dee-ay
O zip a duden duden duden zip a duden day

Now if you can't see that those two lines are way off then you are clueless, if you want to look at the musical structure of the two songs they are even more glaringly different... but again when a woke warrior wants to see something that doesn't exist no reasoning with them is possible.
