If the discussion is Ariel in the Disney animated movie, then you are correct.
And she's at her most beautiful in that movie......?

And illustrations of the fairy tale recorded by Hans Christian Anderson ofter depict her with dark hair. And the pics of Halle Bailey as the Little Mermaid that I've seen show her with red hair anyway.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

Given that this sort of forced migration looks like it’s a few notches below ethnic cleansing, this isn’t surprising,

It would be sweet if this sort of crime kept him out of further public offices...  Great

Conversation soon to be had many times in El Salvadore:

"Did you hear about my cousin who immigrated to the US?  Yeah, they flew him and his family to an ocean resort town.  For free!  Hey, where you going?"

"Home to pack."

Need I remind you that the original little mermaid (152 years before the Disney film was released) ended up dissolving into sea foam? So if you’re going to raise a stink about not being faithful to the original, why not focus on something that actually has a material impact on the story?

Funny how there’s no record of conservative whack-a-loons being incensed when John Wayne was cast as Genghis Khan.

Honestly, if there’s any Disney-owned variation on a public domain character people should be annoyed isn’t a readhead, it should probably have been Thor. Admittedly, being a redhead (and with a full beard) wouldn’t have changed anything, plot wise in the MCU, but anything that manages to A) distance Norse mythology from the racist dickheads who’ve come to latch onto it, and B) still be true to the original lore, would be a huge plus. At least making Heimdall black accomplished the first part.
