Bruh is this satire?
Why should someone only learn about their parents' careers and no one else's?
> I loved the original little mermaid! I remember going to see it decades ago
How many decades? Are you a vampire?
> Instead of changing the original story and characters, why not do something original instead?

When their careers is something that is suitable for 18 years and older I would agree with you.
Otherwise you’re deliberately ignoring the elephants in the room.

It’s also kind of bullshit that like Italians got their own new content and original characters (Rocky, etc.) and everyone else has to settle for being ret-conned into existing content.
But it’s things like this that give me pause. Why not just not read the books you don’t like??
I love to re-read books I like every few years.
Similarly If someone said that people should accept the fine ladies from the local gentleman’s clubs coming over to teach an 8 year old kid about their lives - everyone would be up in arms.
Instead why not allow the fine ladies from the gentleman’s club to teach their 8 year old kid these things at home and then the local butcher can teach their 8 year old kid about their lives and principles at their home also? Shouldn’t classrooms be for the basics?
And I (as a 58 year old black man) loved the original little mermaid! I remember going to see it with my girlfriend decades ago - was a magical day.
Instead of changing the original story and characters, why not do something original instead?
See how all of this stuff does not make sense anymore?
Now because my eyes are going bad I listen to audible. Will I have to listen to a changed version of these books instead?
The world has gone mad.
Bruh.
