did a 180 in 30 seconds lmao thats really how easy this goes bros, people just believe whatever they are told
Or his examples he presented make sense. After his post I did some digging and it’s not even a stretch.
op Chet hanks confirmed
Halloween costumes are trash too
like people dressing up as chiefs or Mexicans for example
why are those costumes? do they fall in the funny category or scary category, and why? they’re not made up characters, animals, or items. they’re making caricatures out of whole groups of people as a gag. it’s no different from white people dressing up in blackface with fried chicken and watermelon for a Halloween costume, if you need something to compare it to.
it's a unique garb and isn't that culturally appropriate attire?
you tried to compare it to blackface which is a reach. it would be the equivalent of a white person wearing a kimono or a dashiki, which are both also perfectly fine
don't see what the big issue is with putting on a sombrero or native american headdress
Lowkey some people overreact about this issues (sjws namely)
When did appreciation become appropriation
Mothafuckas getting s*** misconstrued smh
This is a product of cancel culture btw
This a bullshit argument if I appreciate someone’s s*** I don’t claim that I made it better when I did it, try and take it to make bread off, pretend that I came up with it, or turn it into a joke

Dressing up like a mexican to get drunk isn’t the same thing as wearing a dashiki, s***s racist as f***, and even with the kimonos and dashikis it depends on the context niggas are wearing em in

the entire point of wearing that kinda stuff on Halloween is to make a mockery of it, not to appreciate it

Anytime you have ghosts and mummies in the same group as Native Americans and Mexicans you know you f***ed up
I went as Pikachu on Halloween as kid, is that furry cultural appropriation. I apologize then
It looked like this but I was much cuter
Nah the white girl with braids take is legit. Black women have historically been denied jobs and made a mockery out of for wearing braids and when white women do it, it doesn’t effect them.
The fact that there's an asymmetry in how society judges white and black people doing the same thing still isn't cultural appropriation. They are presumably getting a hairstyle like that because they appreciate the style and its heritage, not because they want to use it as a weapon to disparage black people.
The reality is, for better or worse, nothing is exclusive in an allegedly multicultural society. There is no racial trademark or licensing for idiosyncrasies, nobody walking around with test kits to verify that you have sufficient African DNA to wear braids. White people are gonna do things black people invented, black people are gonna do things white people invented, and the same is true for every other demographic

That’s... debatable...

Nah I’m not hearing this tbh. That style of braid is black culture. Black women been through hell and back for their hair so I’d be pissed too if Becky with them f***ed up loose braids get praised while I get denied opportunities for something that’s been a piece of my culture for a lifetime.

so the solution is to continue to deny people?
nah keep let the braids RUN
