My local “library”. Has like 12 books and over 100 computers. I was too sad to ever go there again. My personal library is approaching 7500 books and grows daily
My local library still has a good number of books but last time I went, the place was empty and the kids section had woke shit showcased even in a red area.
There's a case for providing the computers but you don't need a whole library for that. The local govt building could have a room set aside.
It’s a damn shame. The ruling elites want to eliminate books because you can’t edit books and remove the truth and replace it with propaganda so easily.
All the blacks in my platoon at MCRD failed swim week the first time around and had to receive 1:1 training from instructors. Of those, 75% still couldn’t pass the basic requirements but were still pushed through as “pass” anyway. This was in 2014.
99-02 I was in Hawaii in which you have to take a swim test. 0 passed, which isn't a big deal...they just label you a weak swimmer and you go to your unit.
Later I ran a a team leaders course in which we would perform the ranger swim test. Again, 0 passed.
So on graduation day we jumped from a Chinook into the ocean and swam 100 meter to shore where we had a hog roast. Outside of the Hawaiians cooking for us, it was nothing but white swimmers.
I don't get it? Why would you not learn to swim? chinese cannot swim either. I watched a video of chinese police watch a woman drown. They were standing right next to her on solid ground. The three of them did not know what to do. All they had to do was give her a handhold ( nightstick) and pull her out. No they just watched her drown. It was surreal.
It has to be. I'm half black. Swam varsity in high school and also held the highest vertical on varsity basketball. Best of both worlds one could say 😂
Hawaiians and Somoans absolutely hate white people. Hawaii is the most racist of the 40 states I've been too. Haven't been to Vermont, NH, Maryland, Delaware, Alaska, Montana, SC, ND, MN, or Wisconsin.
I have. A friend of mine from college grew up in the middle east and couldn't swim. It really bothered me that she would be in danger of death from something so common as falling into water. So I convinced her to take lessons one summer. It's a skill everyone should have.
Thank you. I actually learned that lesson from my grandfather, who was an officer in WWII. He insisted that his men know how to swim and spent time teaching them, something other officers ignored. When it came time to be dropped off in North Africa, they all climbed into the Higgins boats from the ship. I don't remember why, but two of the boats went down, including my grandfather's. Several men in the other boat drowned, but my grandpa and all of his men survived, swimming the remaining distance to shore. I may not be heading into war, but you never know when you'll need to know how to swim.
Thank you for your story. I think I've read somewhere that the waves were bad and caused many boats to sink. I was taught swimming in school and I'm grateful for that. I also go to every CPR thing they have at work.
went on a float trip with some friends. two in my group were black. out of all the hundreds, maybe thousands of people on the river that day, they were the only two black people. they were also the only ones wearing lifejackets.
My boot camp division had about 25 "black" dudes. Of the 25 there were 15ish who couldnt swim at all. Out of the 10 that could, I'm pretty sure 9 were Dominican and the other dude was a triathlon beast who loved doing dumb shit to get smoked when he was bored.
Stereotype is such a harsh word. I like to say "statistical sampling and forward predictive modeling" -- it gets the liberal bobbleheads agreeing. "oooooh! Science!"
Seems like they're making a good living playing the role of black men's wives/girlfriends in a shit ton of commercials though. I still can't figure that one out. Nor how they end up with Asian-looking children.
There's so many amazing stories from the past of Americans beating the odds. Rag tag teams coming together to do the impossible. Real-life miracles. Those stories used to be written after the fact. Today however, what's going on is... people are trying to manufacture stories like that simply to get clicks/views/attention online. So they put a bunch of retards together and then write some idiotic story about how they're incredible. It's pure insanity.
If they were competent they wouldn't need diversity to get the job. In this case, it was a deliberate attempt to blackwash another White redheaded female character out of our culture, so everything else comes second.
He also went through basic martial arts training for Matrix. Tom Cruise did katana training for Last Samurai. Remember when the "talent" actually met you halfway when trying to make movies look more authentic?
The Bigger picture isn't that she doesn't know how to swim, but that they are putting people in positions that they have no right to be in. A prime example would be that diversity hire pilot that killed people (I think he's dead too, since he crashed). Now that's scary, thinking we're safe when we fly.
This is the part of flying that people overlook. It's not just the pilots, it's the people who are supposed to be qualified mechanics doing pre-flight checks and maintenance. You could have the best pilot in the world, but if some asshole on the ground who has no business being in a hangar screws up something important, there's a good chance the pilot won't be able to do a damn thing.
This "woke hiring" bullshit is an infection from the top down. It's the same moronic mindset that went into firing medical workers who refused the clot shots. Sure, fire people who understand the risks and the science and choose to avoid/ignore it in favor of people who care nothing about their own personal safety and health. However, I'm sure that latter group will naturally care so much for their patients more than they do for themselves...right?
Significant here is how many investigations into air accidents have determined that the fault was at least partially maintenance or some part of the crew other than the pilot? I don't have those figures off the top of my head but I think it's pretty substantial.
Also, pilots are part of the crew. If there were ever anything not to screw around with ... next thing you know the Navy will hire illegal aliens to install screen doors on their submarines.
You dumb toothless faggot. A Black doctor gave the world open heart surgery. Dr. Daniel Hale Williams. Dr. Ben Carson is 100x greater of a man than you will ever be.
When a fragile inbred is presented with facts they resort to distortions and misrepresentation of information. You will never be as great as Dr Daniel Hale Williams or Ben Carson. You are literally nothing compared to them. I expected you to show how fragile you are and you didn't let me down. Kudos, Cleetus. 👏
No, he was white. That's not the subject here. Tell us about the greatness of Kermit Gosnell. By your "standards" he should be placed on a pedestal simply for being a black doctor.
So I guess you're not going to tell us. Guess you should have kept your mouth shut then. You go ahead and roll the dice on possibly getting hacked up by someone who only got where they are via affirmative action and woke policies.
Fictional characters can be anything. You know mermaids aren't real, right? You didn't bitch and whine when John Wayne played Genghis Khan 😆 #hypocrites
Only when they're originally created. Once they are changed they cease to be that character anymore. Sherlock Holmes is a white, British guy. If they try to cast a 300-lb. blue hair lesbian and call it "Sherlock Holmes" it's no longer that same character.
Actually, I can't stand assholes who are also morons. Although you do get points for entertainment value. There's a certain degree of fun watching you get destroyed over and over again...while continually digging yourself into a deeper hole.
One of my most hilarious memories of boot camp was all the big bad black dudes that were all tough and macho until they were pushed into the pool. They screamed like girls and a couple even started crying.
The average age of a white person is 58. Most white youth look at you racetards as dinosaurs and won't help you. So tell me how senile boomers and diaper wearing xers are going to stage a race war? In a decade a big chunk of the boomers will be dead. Your race war is 30 years too late and real conservatives will fight against you idiots. I've got my .308 ammo stocked up 🤣 🤣 🤣
Hopefully he was joking but in all seriousness, those who create our currency employ the strategy of D&C divide and conquer. Whether it's civil war, killing each other over capitalism vs communism, race war, or anything else, it prevents We the People from overthrowing their tyranny.
Don't carry water for tyrants, and disparaging everyone born in some 18 year period (whether it's baby boomers or anyone else) does exactly that.
Article appears to be fake. Can't find it anywhere. Closest thing I could find was one about a water tank they used for a number of the underwater scenes, which would imply that she can swim.
Also, I don't have a high opinion of Hollywood, but I'm pretty sure if she couldn't swim they'd just pay for swimming lessons. It's not that hard, especially if there's millions of dollars riding on it.
I remember being a lifeguard at a local lake in my younger years.... had to go in several times every weekend to rescue some city dwellers who had no respect for the water or pretty much anything or anyone.
Before I was 2, my Brother threw me into the pool. It was against the rules, you were supposed to only enter via a ladder. He knew Mom would have a cow and she was right there. Of course my Brother had to jump in. He got in front of me and I was surprised by how well I could hear him.
I decided to mess with him and stayed under as long as it was comfortable. As long as I kept swimming he'd back up, but he became audibly more agitated the longer I stayed under, which I thought was a great laugh because he was always even keeled.
When I did come up for air he picked me up to make sure I didn't inhale water, then made the mistake of throwing me. He was ok with doing that for a while, I'd swim back to him every time. I wore him out, it was just too much fun to stop.
Before I was 12 I could swim underwater further than any adult in town.
So dumb, so concerned about check the diversity box they put actress and film at risk. At least could have picked a black girl who knew how to swim. Fucking clown World man.
i thought this too, but back in college my roommate could not swim. at all.
it was mindblowing to me. he may as well have said he hadn't learned how to walk.
i just never remembered a time when i couldn't swim. turns out my mother had taken me to a bunch of those 'swim with baby' classes. that's why it seemed like ingrained knowledge to me.
on the other hand, my roommate was able to convince a nice looking co-ed to teach him how to swim. advantage: roommate.
There is something definitely wrong with not being able to swim. We live on a planet that is 71% covered with water, so the chances of you needing that skill to survive are pretty high. You do yourself a disservice by not learning to swim. It is much easier than most that can’t believe. Most non swimmers drown because they panic, when simply relaxing could save them. Do yourself a favor, and find a friend with a pool and learn. Notice I did not say “ join the Y, or go to a public pool”. I wouldn’t encourage anyone to bath in the urine of others. Summer is here where I am , so as soon as it is warm enough where you are, make learning to swim a mission. Your life or a loved ones life could one day depend on you having that skill.
Wasn’t implying that they did, but without a doubt man has lived on the edges of that 71% since forever. I’m not trying to criticize people that can’t swim. I’m trying to assure them that it is a very easy skill to learn, and can come in handy.
so the chances of you needing that skill to survive are pretty high.
Meh. I know how to swim, but if I didn't, the only thing that would incentivize me to learn is to keep my small children safe in case of an emergency.
People who do not seek water can easily avoid it especially in today's world. Many people don't even live near a body of water, so they can make due with going in a shallow pool or something to that extent. Yes, it's a good skill to know especially if you happen to be in a situation where someone is drowning, but a large percentage of people go through life never learning how to swim and for the most part it doesn't really affect them.
I guess I just find it hard to understand why a person wouldn’t want to learn to swim, especially if they have kids. I can understand that a person living in a big city where there are no bodies of water may not know how to swim, but at some point in just about everyone’s life they will be around water deep enough to drown in. There isn’t anything wrong with not knowing how to operate a firearm, survive in the woods, or work on your own car, but they can be learned, and are worth learning. Swimming is easy, and I could teach anyone to do it in short order. Learn these things, and hope that you never need them for survival.
I found being unable to swim was just a frame of mind. Once I understood I could swim, well then I could. I was 6. I'm not shitting on you at all, I still remember the fear as a kid not being able to swim and it was a very profound moment in my life which I have remembered for over sixty years and applied to other challenges, when I realized it was just my mind holding me back.
Then the same marxist shill doing his best to keep his corporate Hollywood master happy in this thread would be up in arms bitching about how Whites are stealing other peoples' cultures.
I don't like the pedo and faggot propaganda Disney is pushing but a simple trip outside of your ideological bubble would lead you to see that Avatar Way of Water, The Lion King remake, Frozen 1& 2, the Beauty and the Beast remake, the 2019 Aladdin movie, and Star Wars Rogue One all grossed over a BILLION in ticket sales globally. That's just to name a few. The Little Mermaid movie will be a box office top seller because the majority of America isn't stuck in the Jim Crow era.
Kids don't pay for the tickets. This is why woke bullshit aimed at children continuously flops. Especially when the untainted and superior originals are readily available.
White people have been playing non white characters since forever. None of you snowflakes batted an eye. You just don't like having entertainment not exclusively cater to you because you think the world revolves around you. The movie will be a box office success because most real Americans don't care that a mermaid isn't white, only a vocal minority of aging reactionaries displaying how thin skinned they are. Grown ass middle aged and older men crying about a mermaid 😆
White people have been playing non white characters since forever.
And it has been roundly mocked. The John Wayne/Genghis Khan thing you keep bringing up has been deemed ridiculous for years. However, there's a difference that, of course, keeps flying completely over your head. When white people played non-white characters in the past, it wasn't done because they were trying to be woke or propagandize. John Wayne was cast as Genghis Khan because they wanted to get the biggest star in the world in their movie. The ONLY reason these shitheads are doing it now is EXACTLY to be woke and propagandize. If there's no reason to change the entire character, and that's what they're doing, then either leave it alone or come up with something original.
The other problem is that when they cast white actors in non-white roles, they at least tried to make them look like the character. For example, the character of Mr. Yunioshi in "Breakfast at Tiffany's", as ridiculous as it was when portrayed by Mickey Rooney, was still portrayed as Japanese. They didn't make him an old Jewish guy who was also an accountant, or a young black man who performed in a Jazz club at night and volunteered at a children's hospital on weekends. No. They kept the character the same.
As ridiculous as John Wayne playing Genghis Khan was, they didn't say, "Hey, now he's no longer Mongolian." This is exactly what the woke bullshit is doing. If you want to do a Little Mermaid remake, why not do it with a white actress...just like the original character? There's no reason other than brainwashing and woke bullshit. None at all.
You just don't like having entertainment not exclusively cater to you
Funny, because that's the only reason entertainment exists. You don't even understand that fact. The black "Annie" movie flopped because they catered to an audience that wasn't interested in seeing a bunch of white characters cast as black characters. In other words, why would you create an entertainment product in which nobody is interested? Concert dates are cancelled all the time due to lack of ticket sales. In other words, their product is not "catering" to enough people.
The movie will be a box office success
Just like all the other woke flops, such as the woke "Ghostbusters", and the hundreds others that people don't even remember...because nobody has wasted their time watching them. But you keep telling yourself that it will be a success and thinking that because YOU say it, that makes it true. The woke bullshit flops every time because they are catering to nobody but the handful of assholes that give a shit about virtue signaling.
The other problem is that they focus primarily on checking boxes for the woke crowd rather than making a quality product. So they're already alienating the majority of potential customers...then creating a shit product that alienates the rest. The woke "Ghostbusters" flopped because they announced they were intentionally trying to piss people off...then didn't even make a good movie. The black "Annie" remake flopped because it had no target audience and it wasn't good. This happens time and again and will happen with The Little (Black) Mermaid. They might lie, as they often do, about the "box office" results, but that won't change the fact it will be a flop.
Disney definitely has a woke/groomer problem but reimagining a character isn't proof of wokeness. Disney has had at leat seven different movies in the last decade that grosses over 1 billion in ticket sales. Facts don't care about your feelings.

Sort of...we haven't seen proof yet that she can actually swim.
Opened the thread to say what you said. 👍
uhh...so the stereotype is true??
Stereotypes exist for a reason.
Never met one in22 years of service that could swim
All the blacks in my platoon at MCRD failed swim week the first time around and had to receive 1:1 training from instructors. Of those, 75% still couldn’t pass the basic requirements but were still pushed through as “pass” anyway. This was in 2014.

The three of them did not know what to do. All they had to do was give her a handhold ( nightstick) and pull her out. No they just watched her drown. It was surreal.
With blacks, I think it's actually genetic -- something to do with a different center of gravity
It has to be. I'm half black. Swam varsity in high school and also held the highest vertical on varsity basketball. Best of both worlds one could say 😂
They are less buoyant.

bone density, and having more short twitch muscle fiber which is denser than long twitch
White people are on the extreme end of having the most long twitch muscle fiber, then Persians, Northern Chinese...
I don't float and can swim fine.
It's just harder work to keep on the surface.
Negative bouyancy
Water hates them.
That is actually genetic due to bone density, and having more short twitch muscle fiber which is denser than long twitch
Haven't seen american indians swim either while station in Oklahoma.
Did the native Hawaiians beat up the white dudes? I saw that story here yesterday.
Hawaiians and Somoans absolutely hate white people. Hawaii is the most racist of the 40 states I've been too. Haven't been to Vermont, NH, Maryland, Delaware, Alaska, Montana, SC, ND, MN, or Wisconsin.
Only if they tried to surf.
Or the whites BBQ was finished cooking
I have. A friend of mine from college grew up in the middle east and couldn't swim. It really bothered me that she would be in danger of death from something so common as falling into water. So I convinced her to take lessons one summer. It's a skill everyone should have.
You're a good friend.
I once broke up with a woman because she was a poor swimmer. Seeing her dog-paddle like an idiot just ruined it for me.
This could be a Seinfeld episode.
Thank you. I actually learned that lesson from my grandfather, who was an officer in WWII. He insisted that his men know how to swim and spent time teaching them, something other officers ignored. When it came time to be dropped off in North Africa, they all climbed into the Higgins boats from the ship. I don't remember why, but two of the boats went down, including my grandfather's.

I'm a lousy swimmer.
Learned as an adult. Passed the swim test in college, but just barely.
However, I made sure both kids learned as soon they were old enough to sign up for lessons.
went on a float trip with some friends. two in my group were black. out of all the hundreds, maybe thousands of people on the river that day, they were the only two black people. they were also the only ones wearing lifejackets.
Yep. I got down missouri rivers each year. Current, merrimac, and gascanade. Always 1 or 2 out of hundreds, and always wearing life jackets.
Water is racissss?
My boot camp division had about 25 "black" dudes. Of the 25 there were 15ish who couldnt swim at all. Out of the 10 that could, I'm pretty sure 9 were Dominican and the other dude was a triathlon beast who loved doing dumb shit to get smoked when he was bored.
Stereotype is such a harsh word. I like to say "statistical sampling and forward predictive modeling" -- it gets the liberal bobbleheads agreeing. "oooooh! Science!"
You should come up with something where "stereotype" is an acronym.
Yes. All of them. Except of course the millenia-old stereotypes about the money-grubbing, lying, manipulative, swindling, deceptive, subvertive tribe.
Those ones are.... Well.... We just don't talk about those ones, ok?
What do you mean? You know why they have such big noses?
Because breathing air is free.
Well this is completely fake so…
Anyone who has gone through basic military training knows the stereotype is true.
Can confirm.
Came here to say exactly this. I’ve got a picture proving it.
My parents taught me to swim at age 4. I taught my kids when they were toddlers. No idea what black parents are doing.
Judging by black culture today, I’d say anything except parenting.
Lack of fathers at this point really, you could argue economics or racism 60 years ago bur now it's just neglect
Halle Bailey is cultural appropriation of Halle Berry
Halle Berry could probably swim, nice flotation devices
Lol this too is urban myth. I'd like to imagine she'd learn how to swim for a role, if need be ...
From what i’ve seen, yes, this stereotype is generally true.
Imagine going in for a job interview. "So the part is the little mermaid. Can you swim?" "No"
The main job requirement was not being White, so she was a shoe in from the get go.
And not be a redhead. Hollywood really has it in for redheads. The gingerside is real.
And having eyes on the side of her head, like a fish..
I hear Lori Lightfoot is available for a new opportunities these days...
Seems like they're making a good living playing the role of black men's wives/girlfriends in a shit ton of commercials though. I still can't figure that one out. Nor how they end up with Asian-looking children.
The term is shoo-in
“No problem. We’ll spend a few million on CGI because equity.”
It boggles the mind they could not teach her to swim for the part. If it could have saved millions in expenses.
Welcome to your DEI interview. Are you white? NO? You're hired.
She jogs real good, though.
She did have flotation devices installed though.
What is it with diversity hires and incompetency?
Because they're all incompetent as fuck, but that doesn't matter. You just need to not be white to get a job now
I have a fresh take on what's going on here.
There's so many amazing stories from the past of Americans beating the odds. Rag tag teams coming together to do the impossible. Real-life miracles. Those stories used to be written after the fact. Today however, what's going on is... people are trying to manufacture stories like that simply to get clicks/views/attention online. So they put a bunch of retards together and then write some idiotic story about how they're incredible. It's pure insanity.
Peter principle in action
If they were competent they wouldn't need diversity to get the job. In this case, it was a deliberate attempt to blackwash another White redheaded female character out of our culture, so everything else comes second.
They should've hired Corn Pop, he could swim.
Corn Pop was a bad dude
But since Biden said it, was he really?
He was a good dude trying to keep pedo Joe away from those kids.
This is correct.
Corn pop was a rad dude
That's a damn lie, Jack
She can shoot 3-pointers all day tho.
And twerk
So she can't drive or listen to actual music either. The confirmation of stereotypes keeps coming.
That's why I said "actual music." Rap is just noise.
Keanu goes through military and advanced shooting training for John Wick....
Bailey can't even learn to doggy paddle?
He also went through basic martial arts training for Matrix. Tom Cruise did katana training for Last Samurai. Remember when the "talent" actually met you halfway when trying to make movies look more authentic?
Fake headline.
It is. The actual headline is how she's dealing with the "racist backlash" and the article doesn't mention anything about her ability to swim.
Back in my day... James Cameron tried to drown his staff, and they were very experienced underwater swimmers... and singers.
The Bigger picture isn't that she doesn't know how to swim, but that they are putting people in positions that they have no right to be in. A prime example would be that diversity hire pilot that killed people (I think he's dead too, since he crashed). Now that's scary, thinking we're safe when we fly.
Now we have no idea if anyone is really qualified.
Professional pilots won't let their families fly commercial anymore.
Wow. I hadn't heard that. I'm sure it has to do with the vax too.
This is due to diversity hiring. They say crews are reliably incompetent.
Although vaxtardation is also a factor, and competent pilots are based enough to be pissed about that, too.
This is the part of flying that people overlook. It's not just the pilots, it's the people who are supposed to be qualified mechanics doing pre-flight checks and maintenance. You could have the best pilot in the world, but if some asshole on the ground who has no business being in a hangar screws up something important, there's a good chance the pilot won't be able to do a damn thing.
This "woke hiring" bullshit is an infection from the top down. It's the same moronic mindset that went into firing medical workers who refused the clot shots. Sure, fire people who understand the risks and the science and choose to avoid/ignore it in favor of people who care nothing about their own personal safety and health. However, I'm sure that latter group will naturally care so much for their patients more than they do for themselves...right?
Significant here is how many investigations into air accidents have determined that the fault was at least partially maintenance or some part of the crew other than the pilot? I don't have those figures off the top of my head but I think it's pretty substantial.
Also, pilots are part of the crew. If there were ever anything not to screw around with ... next thing you know the Navy will hire illegal aliens to install screen doors on their submarines.
Nguyen, qualified. Some hard to pronounce Persian name, qualified. White, qualified. Indian, Chinese, black, etc, unqualified
I can tell you're the product of inbreeding.
Nope
I've been warning people about this for years. Specifically in regard to black surgeons. Affirmative action isn't new; It's just become more rampant.
You dumb toothless faggot. A Black doctor gave the world open heart surgery. Dr. Daniel Hale Williams. Dr. Ben Carson is 100x greater of a man than you will ever be.
When a fragile inbred is presented with facts they resort to distortions and misrepresentation of information. You will never be as great as Dr Daniel Hale Williams or Ben Carson. You are literally nothing compared to them. I expected you to show how fragile you are and you didn't let me down. Kudos, Cleetus. 👏
Now tell us about the greatness of Kermit Gosnell.
How about H.H. Holmes?
No, he was white. That's not the subject here. Tell us about the greatness of Kermit Gosnell. By your "standards" he should be placed on a pedestal simply for being a black doctor.
I love when butthurt racetards hide behind strawman fallacies. Kudos 👏
So I guess you're not going to tell us. Guess you should have kept your mouth shut then. You go ahead and roll the dice on possibly getting hacked up by someone who only got where they are via affirmative action and woke policies.
She has a right to be in the position because they hired her. Start your own film company if you don't like it.
The Little Mermaid is white. It's all a JOKE.
The little mermaid is a children's story written by a homo who used it as an analogy for his desire to be a woman.
She was also a ginger; white with red hair. That you're on board with re-writing every story is prejudiced.
Fictional characters can be anything. You know mermaids aren't real, right? You didn't bitch and whine when John Wayne played Genghis Khan 😆 #hypocrites
Only when they're originally created. Once they are changed they cease to be that character anymore. Sherlock Holmes is a white, British guy. If they try to cast a 300-lb. blue hair lesbian and call it "Sherlock Holmes" it's no longer that same character.
Your rules are arbitrary. Fiction has no such restrictions. Don't worry, you'll get over it.
Faggot.
Pour bleach in your eyes homo.
The little mermaid is a mermaid aka a fictional characters. Grown ass men crying over a mermaid. Never thought I'd see the day 😆.
It's bigger than that. It's just an example of the BIGGER problem
Check out his post history. This guy is just an asshole.
You're just a fragile cuck who can't stand people not echoing your retarded beliefs.
Actually, I can't stand assholes who are also morons. Although you do get points for entertainment value. There's a certain degree of fun watching you get destroyed over and over again...while continually digging yourself into a deeper hole.
Fake... Where is the shitpost flair?
yeah can't find the real article. Sounds like a Bee article, but this is fake. Funny, but at least acknowledge the shitpost.
I saw the little mermaid trailer and whispered next to me “I bet she can’t swim.” Babylon Bee in real time lmao
Dumb faggot. This is a shitpost.
One of my most hilarious memories of boot camp was all the big bad black dudes that were all tough and macho until they were pushed into the pool. They screamed like girls and a couple even started crying.
They could probably all beat your ass on land though 😆
Not if they die from drowning taps forehead
But they didn't, cuckold.
"Is there any chance we can get a scene where the Lil Mersmaimd is doing a drive-by or being a Lunchtime Rowdy?"
Maybe they should get a pregnant meth head ginger from flyover country.

Can even get a shitpost flair?
When the great race war kicks off, be sure to surround your home with a moat. You'll thank me for it. Follow me for more pro tips!
The average age of a white person is 58. Most white youth look at you racetards as dinosaurs and won't help you. So tell me how senile boomers and diaper wearing xers are going to stage a race war? In a decade a big chunk of the boomers will be dead. Your race war is 30 years too late and real conservatives will fight against you idiots. I've got my .308 ammo stocked up 🤣 🤣 🤣
If only there were more fake tough guys like you.
You're more worthless than roadkill. Gfy
Sure thing, tough guy. 🤣🤣🤣
Sure thing, faggot. 😆
Hopefully he was joking but in all seriousness, those who create our currency employ the strategy of D&C divide and conquer. Whether it's civil war, killing each other over capitalism vs communism, race war, or anything else, it prevents We the People from overthrowing their tyranny.
Don't carry water for tyrants, and disparaging everyone born in some 18 year period (whether it's baby boomers or anyone else) does exactly that.
So as an actress, she really dindu nuffin?
Alec Baldwin could shoot a mermaid with one hand tied behind his back.
And has.
Article appears to be fake. Can't find it anywhere. Closest thing I could find was one about a water tank they used for a number of the underwater scenes, which would imply that she can swim.
Also, I don't have a high opinion of Hollywood, but I'm pretty sure if she couldn't swim they'd just pay for swimming lessons. It's not that hard, especially if there's millions of dollars riding on it.
Bet she can't swim and didn't learn how. You can be underwater and not know how to swim.
Fake?
When it comes to modern hiring practices, skills are not high on the requirement list.
Do you have the right skin color? Check.
Do you have pronouns in your bios? Check.
Do you have a Ukrainian flag somewhere in your social media? Check.
Did you take pictures of yourself in a mask sometime in the past two years? Check.
Did you post on social media how happy you are to get vaccinated? Check.
first day of shooting "I can't swim."
Ohhhh, right, this job requires swimming. Ooops, we forgot to ask!
White fragility on display. Sounds like a left wing rant 😆
City dweller....
I remember being a lifeguard at a local lake in my younger years.... had to go in several times every weekend to rescue some city dwellers who had no respect for the water or pretty much anything or anyone.
It will be a shit show. Lol
How do you become an adult before learning how to swim? That’s a pretty basic skill
👍
Teach them well :)
Before I was 2, my Brother threw me into the pool. It was against the rules, you were supposed to only enter via a ladder. He knew Mom would have a cow and she was right there. Of course my Brother had to jump in. He got in front of me and I was surprised by how well I could hear him.
I decided to mess with him and stayed under as long as it was comfortable. As long as I kept swimming he'd back up, but he became audibly more agitated the longer I stayed under, which I thought was a great laugh because he was always even keeled.
When I did come up for air he picked me up to make sure I didn't inhale water, then made the mistake of throwing me. He was ok with doing that for a while, I'd swim back to him every time. I wore him out, it was just too much fun to stop.
Before I was 12 I could swim underwater further than any adult in town.
I once read something about how many blacks live where they don't have access to pools or open water bodies and they don't drive in the city.
Hmm, they must not have access to public bus lines, the YMCA, Uber, or literally anything else 😆🤦♀️
2 year olds learn in the matter of a few hours of total lesson time.
I think it was debunked, she can actually swim.
How do you avoid swimming your whole life.
So dumb, so concerned about check the diversity box they put actress and film at risk. At least could have picked a black girl who knew how to swim. Fucking clown World man.
Needs shitpost flair.
How the fuck can an adult human, “not swim”? Do you really have to learn to swim? Seriously who the fuck can’t swim?
i thought this too, but back in college my roommate could not swim. at all.
it was mindblowing to me. he may as well have said he hadn't learned how to walk.
i just never remembered a time when i couldn't swim. turns out my mother had taken me to a bunch of those 'swim with baby' classes. that's why it seemed like ingrained knowledge to me.
on the other hand, my roommate was able to convince a nice looking co-ed to teach him how to swim. advantage: roommate.
Because it's fake so the shill accounts can make the place look racist.
I could swim before I could walk.
Fear.
Gangbangers too stupid to conquer their fear of water, never think that being able to swim might save their own lives. The paradox is hilarious.
It's a shitpost.
There is something definitely wrong with not being able to swim. We live on a planet that is 71% covered with water, so the chances of you needing that skill to survive are pretty high. You do yourself a disservice by not learning to swim. It is much easier than most that can’t believe. Most non swimmers drown because they panic, when simply relaxing could save them. Do yourself a favor, and find a friend with a pool and learn. Notice I did not say “ join the Y, or go to a public pool”. I wouldn’t encourage anyone to bath in the urine of others. Summer is here where I am , so as soon as it is warm enough where you are, make learning to swim a mission. Your life or a loved ones life could one day depend on you having that skill.
To be fair, nobody lives in the 71% of the planet that is covered in water. We are land lubbers by nature.
Wasn’t implying that they did, but without a doubt man has lived on the edges of that 71% since forever. I’m not trying to criticize people that can’t swim. I’m trying to assure them that it is a very easy skill to learn, and can come in handy.
+1
Meh. I know how to swim, but if I didn't, the only thing that would incentivize me to learn is to keep my small children safe in case of an emergency.
People who do not seek water can easily avoid it especially in today's world. Many people don't even live near a body of water, so they can make due with going in a shallow pool or something to that extent. Yes, it's a good skill to know especially if you happen to be in a situation where someone is drowning, but a large percentage of people go through life never learning how to swim and for the most part it doesn't really affect them.
I guess I just find it hard to understand why a person wouldn’t want to learn to swim, especially if they have kids. I can understand that a person living in a big city where there are no bodies of water may not know how to swim, but at some point in just about everyone’s life they will be around water deep enough to drown in. There isn’t anything wrong with not knowing how to operate a firearm, survive in the woods, or work on your own car, but they can be learned, and are worth learning. Swimming is easy, and I could teach anyone to do it in short order. Learn these things, and hope that you never need them for survival.
This is not a reason to never learn how to swim.
There are people in my family that simply sink in water. They’ve taken lessons and tried really hard to become swimmers but they sink
Whatever? What are you, 13. Learn to swim or sink you lazy fuck.
Swim over here and say that to my face!
All the way to Australia? Dayum
I found being unable to swim was just a frame of mind. Once I understood I could swim, well then I could. I was 6. I'm not shitting on you at all, I still remember the fear as a kid not being able to swim and it was a very profound moment in my life which I have remembered for over sixty years and applied to other challenges, when I realized it was just my mind holding me back.
When I said swim, I meant Not Drown! HAHA. Swimming came with practice but I still marvel at those ocean swimmers.
All you have to do is lay flat on your back and kick your legs. You’ll float enough to keep your mouth out of the water. It’s easy as fuck
Swimming is excellent for all that.
Lack of swimming directly correlates to obesity, and not just because swimming is great exercise.
You're changing the subject.
Nothing you can do on land gives you the same sort of exercise, either physically or mentally.
Go learn, takes 10 seconds and a infant can do it at birth.
It's a shitpost.
Make a movie about Martin Luther King Jr. and have Robert De Niro play the part
Then the same marxist shill doing his best to keep his corporate Hollywood master happy in this thread would be up in arms bitching about how Whites are stealing other peoples' cultures.
This is going to be an EPIC fail for them.
Nope. It will sell. Kids don't care about skin color like you dying boomers.
In the last twenty years, when was the last Disney hit? It will auger in, and the Woke will blame "da rayciss''
I don't like the pedo and faggot propaganda Disney is pushing but a simple trip outside of your ideological bubble would lead you to see that Avatar Way of Water, The Lion King remake, Frozen 1& 2, the Beauty and the Beast remake, the 2019 Aladdin movie, and Star Wars Rogue One all grossed over a BILLION in ticket sales globally. That's just to name a few. The Little Mermaid movie will be a box office top seller because the majority of America isn't stuck in the Jim Crow era.
Kids don't pay for the tickets. This is why woke bullshit aimed at children continuously flops. Especially when the untainted and superior originals are readily available.
White people have been playing non white characters since forever. None of you snowflakes batted an eye. You just don't like having entertainment not exclusively cater to you because you think the world revolves around you. The movie will be a box office success because most real Americans don't care that a mermaid isn't white, only a vocal minority of aging reactionaries displaying how thin skinned they are. Grown ass middle aged and older men crying about a mermaid 😆
And it has been roundly mocked. The John Wayne/Genghis Khan thing you keep bringing up has been deemed ridiculous for years. However, there's a difference that, of course, keeps flying completely over your head. When white people played non-white characters in the past, it wasn't done because they were trying to be woke or propagandize. John Wayne was cast as Genghis Khan because they wanted to get the biggest star in the world in their movie. The ONLY reason these shitheads are doing it now is EXACTLY to be woke and propagandize. If there's no reason to change the entire character, and that's what they're doing, then either leave it alone or come up with something original.
The other problem is that when they cast white actors in non-white roles, they at least tried to make them look like the character. For example, the character of Mr. Yunioshi in "Breakfast at Tiffany's", as ridiculous as it was when portrayed by Mickey Rooney, was still portrayed as Japanese. They didn't make him an old Jewish guy who was also an accountant, or a young black man who performed in a Jazz club at night and volunteered at a children's hospital on weekends. No. They kept the character the same.
As ridiculous as John Wayne playing Genghis Khan was, they didn't say, "Hey, now he's no longer Mongolian." This is exactly what the woke bullshit is doing. If you want to do a Little Mermaid remake, why not do it with a white actress...just like the original character? There's no reason other than brainwashing and woke bullshit. None at all.
Funny, because that's the only reason entertainment exists. You don't even understand that fact. The black "Annie" movie flopped because they catered to an audience that wasn't interested in seeing a bunch of white characters cast as black characters. In other words, why would you create an entertainment product in which nobody is interested? Concert dates are cancelled all the time due to lack of ticket sales. In other words, their product is not "catering" to enough people.
Just like all the other woke flops, such as the woke "Ghostbusters", and the hundreds others that people don't even remember...because nobody has wasted their time watching them. But you keep telling yourself that it will be a success and thinking that because YOU say it, that makes it true. The woke bullshit flops every time because they are catering to nobody but the handful of assholes that give a shit about virtue signaling.
The other problem is that they focus primarily on checking boxes for the woke crowd rather than making a quality product. So they're already alienating the majority of potential customers...then creating a shit product that alienates the rest. The woke "Ghostbusters" flopped because they announced they were intentionally trying to piss people off...then didn't even make a good movie. The black "Annie" remake flopped because it had no target audience and it wasn't good. This happens time and again and will happen with The Little (Black) Mermaid. They might lie, as they often do, about the "box office" results, but that won't change the fact it will be a flop.
Disney definitely has a woke/groomer problem but reimagining a character isn't proof of wokeness. Disney has had at leat seven different movies in the last decade that grosses over 1 billion in ticket sales. Facts don't care about your feelings.
hahaha
Hoooooonk Hoooooonk
