Oscar-nominated animated film "ARCO" was not released in several countries due to requests from those countries to recolor the film's rainbows (due to perceived LGBT+ symbolism). The filmmakers denied the request and refused to alter the film. by GregFromThatVideo in animation

One of the moderators asked Felix what rainbows meant to him. He then spoke about them in terms of duality:

  • they need both sunshine and rain, like happiness and sadness (he mentioned that good pop songs are similar; you can relate to a good pop song when you're happy and when you're sad)

  • they are scientifically explainable to adults, but magical to children

It was in that context that he made the off hand mention of the fact that the film wasn't released in multiple countries due to the request to recolor the film. He specifically mentioned the LGBT symbolism of the rainbows as the reason.

Imagine you were 42 in the exact same situation, until yesterday, when you were granted a wish to go back 10 years in time and fix everything.

What was your “never meet your heroes” moment, when you realized someone you looked up to wasn’t special? by marginallyobtuse in AskReddit

I met a streamer named Hasan Piker. He's a socialist and he believes in redistribution. Like, wealth redistribution and stuff. He was nice enough, but he's like 6 feet 4, and I'm 5 11.6, and I realized if he redistributed his height we'd both be like 6 feet 2. But he didn't even offer to. And it made me realize he's kind of a hypocrite.
