Missed opportunity to have the dancers have alternating skin colour and add some interesting patterns to the dance.

It's funny how that argument would've been passable in 1987, but in 2024 they would immediately be cancelled.

As it should be. Deplorable things deserve to be cancelled. That's why we have laws.

[–] abbadon420@lemm.ee 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yes but laws don't matter much if the public opinion isn't there as well. Public opinion is there now, but aparantly it used to be different in 1987

Yes, I'm not wordsmith so "funny" will have to suffice.

Depends on the definition intended, but other adjectives could probably describe it better.
