About a month ago, two creators, Patience Xina and Noah Samsen, had a little bit of a back and forth regarding their opinions on the discourse surrounding the upcoming live-action Little Mermaid movie, starring Halle Bailey. In doing so, they also expressed concerns over bias, echo-chambers and the true meaning of nuance. All very interesting things that I wanted to take a gander at. So join me in exploring their thoughts...while interjecting some of my own, of course.
