I never trust social media for news, if I have time I DuckDuckGo the title when somebody posts Twitter as a source, in this case it turns out the news are right but I don´t know about the video.

It is only a matter of time before we start seeing fighter jets painted with the rainbow flag.

Not in the XXI century but a bandolier might be appropriate for the those times. He-Man was wearing too a kind of bandolier or chest covering.

Unfortunately that is not how it works, obesity is considered and illness all over the World, in the USA, Russia, Somalia, etc, in addition, it is not only about the calories but perhaps even more important que quality of the food, processed food has too much salt, sugars and unnatural elements that in the long term cause diabetes and cancer. Food made in factories can never compete with fruit or food cooked at home, like you actually placing real fish in the oven and cooking it. I mentioned the oven because it is usually healthier than frying.

We will start to see fat Russians in no time, they are shooting themselves on the foot, this was a missed opportunity for Russians to promote home made food instead of fast food. Processed, high in calories, saturated fat, sugary, and tasteless.

Trying to impose Western homosexual values in Africa is racist, where are all the antiracist and BLM protesters to denounce this?

Ok I did not understand it then but the bottom line is that success or failure it is going to be measured by Disney on whether they turn a profit or not.

They only made $4 million dollars in China. But globally I would not call it a flop, as you said, the Little Mermaid made $300 millions profit, that is not a flop.

"'The Little Mermaid' could top out in China with as little as $4 million."

And I don´t post that much I would not worry about it, I post far more often in other threads and nobody ever complains there.

I am sure a millionaire like her is totally blameless for over consumption.

I will not be dictated how to post, I don't like the archive links, when I post I will do it my way, feel free to make your contributions archived, no problem.

I understand, but that has not been my experience with the BBC and other major big news sites, they don't usually pull articles down. Sure there are exceptions, I understand that too, but in my experience I have only seen that very seldom.

I want to see the URL before clicking, it helps me decide whether to click or not.

I realise this is not very popular opinion but this is the way I like it, when you post do it your way, I never complained about anybody archiving links. When I post I will do it my way.

And if it is a well known website seeing the URL you also get an idea of their editorial politics.

I like to know what site I am visiting, simple.

One of the main reasons why I don´t archive links is because I like the source URL to be visible. Another reason is that I don´t find it such a big deal directly visiting the BBC, CNN, etc.

I don´t know the title and I must be honest, I took this from a recent post in China subreddit, the picture links to Reddit. I assumed it could be true because a few Chinese people in the thread confirmed that their country was racist against blacks, but as everything from social networks there is no way to know the allegations for sure, whether this is China or India, or whether this was yesterday or years ago or whether this is photoshopped or not.

It turns out Chinese people are racist? Why else would they not want to watch a black mermaid.

I don´t work in healthcare but that won´t change anything, as you can see those who work in healthcare have a similar opinion.

You can use an adblocker if you want to, I don´t make that choice for others.

It seems fair, if I worked in healthcare I would not want to endanger my life treating a conspiracy theory nutter who refuses the Covid19 vaccine, if he wants to die he better do it alone without making other people sick spreading Covid.
