Yeh ffs I hate this kind of prodding by self proclaimed social justice warriors in a context where it has no sense whatsoever. It makes them look stupid, and diminishes the issue in places where it actually is an issue.
Mikklesen response:
"Well, first of all, the film takes place in Denmark in the 1750s. We do have a big plotline about a girl of color who is being subjected to racism, which was very rare, any people of color in Denmark… almost nobody. She was probably at the time the only one in the entire country of Denmark.”"
Diversity shouldn't be a pre-requisite for a story.
It takes place in 2023 New York? Cool, there should be diversity.
It takes place in, say, 1450 Saigon? Diversity would look artificial and out of place.
If you're going to use 12ft.io, you should include that link in the body of the post, and keep the original URL as is. As a user browsing their feed, there's no way to tell - prior to clicking - where the link is going to.

This whole “sell your body back to society and then maybe you’ll get some free time in your old age where you can no longer do much” is such a sick sad joke.
As someone who became disabled in their early 30s, I wish more people understood this.
Don't wait to live your life. You never know if you'll be able to later. I am endlessly grateful for my younger self traveling while I was still able to do so, even if I was broke.
Ah yes, just in time to fuck up the recipes even more through cost cutting!
Not to say that the original Twinkie recipe wasn’t just some kind of industrial waste, but you get my drift. These kind of buyouts literally never result in a higher quality product. It’s just one more thing for J.M. Smucker to drive into the ground for profit.
Quick! Build walls around Italy and establish guard posts demanding visa/passports to all living beings trying to cross the border in order to stop immigration…
