Suchomimus 12/20/18 4:04:01 PM #1:	The phrase, which roughly translates to "no problems" or "no worries" and is a common expression in parts of eastern and southern Africa, is perhaps best known as a song in Disney's 1994 hit movie "The Lion King." The company trademarked the expression the same year, according to the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The petition, created by Zimbabwean activist Shelton Mpala, had received more than 107,000 signatures by Thursday afternoon. Mpala told CNN he started the petition "to draw attention to the appropriation of African culture and the importance of protecting our heritage, identity and culture from being exploited for financial gain by third parties." "This plundered artwork serves to enrich or benefit these museums and corporations and not the creators or people it's derived from," Mpala said. https://www.cnn.com/2018/12/19/africa/africans-petition-disney-over-hakuna-matata-trademark-intl/index.html lmao. So...why didn't they have a problem with the phrase from 1994-2017? Classic SJW virus behavior. Guess nothing's important to them until there's a platform that they can try to jump on and ruin and get attention over. --- I'm a peasant. <cite>Suchomimus posted [p:914457747] in Lion King ...

More widespread on the right though. --- Place-holder sig because new phone and old sigs not saved :/ <cite>ImTheMacheteGuy posted [p:914461362] in Lion King ...
