The little mermaid song “under the sea” is obviously racist and I’m offended...?

In the song “under the sea”, the song clearly states from a Jamaican crab “The seaweed is always greener

In somebody else's lake”..... THE seaWEED! Why does weed have to be involved with black Jamaicans!! Then the song state, “Up on the shore they work all day

Out in the sun they slave away”. That means up on the shore the white man has the good jobs and the BLACK MAN are slaves! And slave all day! RACIST! IM OFFENDED

    I'm sure if you put some statistics in there and turned this into a proper essay you might get some internet fame for your destruction of The Little Mermaid.

    Then again, seaweed is a form of algae, which can be unicellular or multicellular, whereas plants are only multicellular. As well, algae is found underwater, different from plants, and they lack connective tissue like plants. Not the same as the marijuana plant.

    However, I might agree with your racist part considering their dramatization of a French chef, and that the only evil things in this movie have darker skin than white. Shark (small antagonist) paler blue. Flotsam and Jetsam are gray. Ursula is half gray blue, purple, and BLACK. Just when you think you can reject my argument by saying her human form is white-HER HAIR IS BLACK, the remnants of her evil essence in disguise. Also when she turns people into that pathetic shriveled up thing it assumes a darker color. Boy, I think you're onto something here....
