What is Culture Appreciation!

Started by Emperordmb7 pages

****'s sake, there's an obvious difference between utilizing something from another culture, and lying for your own personal or political gain.

The attack on Warren's character is that she's a liar, not that she used some native American recipe that she had no right to use.

This is just some pathetic semantics bullshit.

Yeah, you most certainly did have a problem and it wasn't a "I was just joking" thing.

eg you attacked Warren's integrity and character as a person because of her Native American cookbook and the alleged cultural lies attached to it.

LOL! That cookbook was hilarious, I'd forgotten about it. It doesn't make me angry. She says dumb shit, like her thing about cheekbones.

I'm not sure. The fact is, all Dances with Donors had to do was claim minority status to get a job at Harvard University and change nothing else about her resume. That just shows the problem with quotas. And frankly, if a place like Harvard wants to play that game of racial politics then they should be taken advantaged of because it's a worthless and stupid game to play.

Don't worry Harvard brought in the top cheekbone inspector in the world. He verified she has native american cheekbones.

Also she can turn into a wolf or eagle.

Oh yeah I agree with you that these shitty quotas need to go. The fact that people like Warren, Dolezal, and Shaun King want to bullshit about their race indicates that there are political points to be gained from flaunting a specific racial identity, and that in and of itself shouldn't be a thing.

You're yelling "troll" to avoid the issue again, because you clearly had a problem with people like Warren and Dolezal, who appropriated other cultures, ergo, by your own actions you do feel there are instances when it's not okay to culturally appropriate.

Seems like you're trying to stawman his position here. From what I've gathered he's taking issue with what's basically a form of fraud, to which cultural appropriation would be a part of.

Like imagine for a sec that the government or some organization gave out some kind of grant(or something along those lines) for people who took care of lions at their homes. He could be ok with people dressing up their dog to look like a lion and still be against people who do so actually filing for the grant.

While he'll quickly jump on any assistance out of desperation, you are in fact agreeing with what I was saying, that what Warren and Dolezal are accused of is a part of cultural appropriation and what he had issue with initially before changing stances.

No you have it backwards. Cultural appropriation is a part of what Warren and Dolezal did. It's basically a lesser included offense to the real crime he's taking issue with.

That's overall irrelevant, it's still an aspect of the same, we essentially have the same views on the matter.

This came up because he said: Actually, there is no "not okay cultural appropriation".-Surtur

Clearly he felt there are instances in regards to Warren's and Dolezal's actions when it isn't okay.

You can appropriate cultures. You just can't lie like a little weasel about it.

Why do I need to explain this to an adult?

Therefore you feel there are indeed certain instances when it's not okay. Congrats on sinking your own previous arguments.

It IS relevant if the "cultural appropriation" aspect isn't what he's raising a fuss about but rather the fraud involved.

Which means there are instances when it's wrong... (the point)

I don't see cultural appropriation as lying about what you are. And that isn't how leftist cucks in this country use the term.

Are you going to claim you are not aware of this? Yes or no, are you aware?

Doesn't matter what you see or feel.

It does, because I see leftist cucks using the term in the way I use it. That is how you guys tend to define this. One more time: are you going to say that is not true?

surely robbie wasn't this much of a headache when he wasn't as old.

Again it seems like you're trying to twisting the issue. If his point is about the LYING rather than what's being lied about then there's no real contradiction to what he's saying. By the same token one can say "There's never anything wrong with having two children" but then later saying "It's wrong to say you have 3 children when you only have 2". You're not actually saying that it's wrong to have 2 children, your'e saying the lie itself is wrong.
