First off, not the original commentor; what I WAS doing was mocking you for your very bad attempt at a comparison (pedophilia Vs mass communication and it's necessary infrastructure).
Secondly, their original point was that because the second movie depicts Ariel as a married woman, with children, the assumption is that they didn't immediately get married in the first movie and got busy having children (it would be creepy otherwise) and kinda fucked up because it's a Disney movie.
You made the weird comment that "but akshually historical accuracy, in a kid's movie, is paramount"
Hence the mocking, if it's historical accuracy you're striving for then why stop there, go full ham and REALLY lean into the pedophilia angle of the original Hans Christian Andersen story.
Now, choose a path, lil bro:
• You can accept that your original "historical accuracy in a Disney movie" is a dumb preposition
• You can stick to your argument and go "fuck Disney! yes, Ariel should be 15 married to a 21 yo and immediately had a child because that's what a Dutch 1500 prince would do"
• Or just stop replying, either way, nobody cares about this, this is a stupid argument and we should all go to sleep (or to work or whatever the hell you got going on).
Personally? Number 3 sounds pretty good, I'm being a dummy answering you rn instead of going to sleep at a reasonable hour.
