"big" is a relative term. That's what makes it so apt for a straw man fallacy since you can define "big" to a certain level that can justify one's objection to it.

They literally do that for every new ride.

They’ve made such a big deal out of this that many people including Mr. Panther himself were hoping/speculating that it would be quietly cancelled for most of the past two years.

Are we all under the assumption that Splash Mountain's swan song will be in mid-January? Any rumors saying earlier or later? I can't imagine it could be much later if they want it ready to roll in 2024.
We haven’t heard anything just yet. Hopefully this will addressed in September.
How many times does this have to be explained?

At least twice a day until the park closes forever.

We're going in October (for the first time since 2019) and I'm counting on Splash still being open. I wouldn't think they'd spring the closing date on us so quickly, but stranger things have happened.

Yes, I do think the "don't be associated with..." argument is where there's a division in views that will tend to fall along ideological lines.
That's a very broad standard and not everyone will reasonably agree on how far and wide it should be applied.
Racial issues are such a constant in the world that it can be nearly impossible to find anything NOT associated with racism in one way or another.
And I’m very tired of it. All of that mumbo-jumbo should go . That way, those of us who have moved on can actually discuss the ride and those who haven’t can talk about whatever they want.

Exactly. The Politics and Social Issues forum is gone, so there is no place to discuss social issues on this forum. There are other websites for those discussions.

I'm sure that, whatever theme ends up going in, the ride will still be great. Log flumes are best when they are fast and feel slightly out of control, which is part of the reason I never really enjoyed WDW's Splash Mountain as much as Disneyland's. Story is secondary.
Disneyland's Splash traditionally has closed in the winter months, and if they are serious about getting this open in 2024, I could see it lasting through the Holiday Season and closing in January for the refresh. I think the toontown ride is schedule to open in March of 23 right... so that would make up for losing Splash capacity over Spring Break and Summer.

DLR's Splash story is not secondary, it's more dialog based with less visual cues.

I think he's just saying that's the case for him personally. I can't dispute him that the DL version feels more thrilling than WDW's.
I do think that the WDW/Tokyo version of the story is better told, though people could certainly make a case for any of the Splash Mountains as their favorite version.
