I was looking for a Fur Baby shirt and got led to target's website, and i noticed they had 4 Town shirts, which makes sense, but then i saw that they a couple solo 4 Town member designs, but they were both featuring Tae Young? Blonde, white passing Tae Young? There's no merch featuring Robaire? The black lead and crush of the protagonist? Hmmmm...

I love all of Nicolle Castro’s art and hold it all close to my heart but 70-80% of these characters have likely never celebrated thanksgiving. like not even once.

Istg, every Pixar movie since 2019 has gone through some controversy
Toy Story 4 - conservatives boycotting the movie because of an extremely brief scene with lesbian parents of a kid in Bonnie’s daycare (I honestly forgot about this one)
Onward - the lesbian cyclops cop is “Disney’s first gay character”
Soul - controversy over turning people of color into nonhumans (this one was understandable though), some hate towards the character designs
Luca - More hate towards the “CalArts” character designs, accusations of queerbaiting
Turning Red - “wahhh the movie is cringe, how dare teenage girls have fun,” “oh no how dare they talk about periods,” even more hate towards the character designs
Lightyear - conservatives throwing tantrums over a split-second gay kiss
Elemental - the movie is homophobic because it’s about a m/f couple being persecuted! It’s not like interracial couples, straight or not, have been persecuted! Oh wait now the movie is a bad allegory for racism, even though the director and lead cast members are POC, lalalala I’m not listening! The movie is ugly and looks like a PS2 cutscene!1!1!1!
Y’all are just looking for excuses to hate on Disney’s works at this point (their business practices are another story though). I swear, some people can’t praise Puss in Boots, Spider-Verse, and Mario on their own merits without resorting to dunking on Disney and Pixar. It’s even spread to Ruby Gillman, as people said that the antagonist of the movie being a red haired mermaid is Dreamworks revenge against the Little Mermaid remake or whatever.
Most of the hate towards the previous movies was just conservatives being conservatives, but Elemental seems to get a ton of hate just for existing. Grow the fuck up.

The message in Disney movies lately have really been: maybe the real villains were the toxic and unrealistic expectations made by good intentions that your elders made along the way
