More anti-Pluto lies. According to this Pluto hatesite article, Pluto is "so tiny, itโs not even technically a planet". Bullshit! Even the IUA propaganda website they link to admits that Pluto has sufficient mass to classify as a planet according to the anti-Pluto IUA rules. What classifies Pluto as a Dwarf planet is the ambiguous rule that a planet must "clear its area". I would argue that if Pluto does not meet that criteria then neither Does Neptune whose orbit is intersected by Pluto.

Oh and by the way maybe Pluto would not have such an Icy Heart if it got the love and admiration it deserved. Pluto is a planet. Deal with it.

My former astronomy teacher founded the "Society for preservation of Pluto as a planet". I'm not sure he's getting much traction with it though.
