      I disagree on the Pluto stance because it being classified as a dwarf planet makes sense for various reasons and isn’t about the ego of a racist megalomaniac.

      W.r.t Pluto then you’re no better than those people denying science. The golf of Mexico’s renaming is due to ego and politics, Pluto’s classification is not

        it’s more so emotionally based because it’s personified and I feel bad for poor Pluto 😢, not actually thinking that Pluto should in all scientific circumstances be considered a planet.

        It’s a lot different to vaccine deniers who don’t trust meaningful science and evidence that actually effect the lives of people and can do real harm to the lives of others.

          Well as a planet pluto was mini mini. As a dwarf planet Pluto is one of the mightiest.

          Also, if you call Pluto a planet then it’s not fair to Eris and they’ve done nothing wrong

      If you want Pluto to be a planet, have the definition of “planet” changed so that Pluto would fall within that definition.
