>tfw a coworker unironically says "be careful not to culturally appropriate"
Cultural 'appropriation 'is probably one of the oldest and most cordial of interactions between societies.

I will only accept this meme when all non whites move back into mud huts, give up electricity, accept no modern medicine, wear robes and paint, and only eat what they themselves can grow or catch.
SJWs do all these mental gymnastics to remain in denial that they really just hate people of European descent
they're the real racists
>>28108515
There is no winning with these people
I've heard a lot more SJW radical leftist type rhetoric in real life than ever before. Then again, I've also heard a lot more /pol/-tier rhetoric in real life lately.

Well non-white people developed agriculture, clothes that weren't robes and paint (I'm not sure how this is a criticism anyway. Are pants somehow a massive improvement over robes), and the Chinese had a primitive smallpox vaccine centuries ago.
Anyway, I like white people and I'm pretty glad they invented all this cool shit but there's no need to pretend like they're the only ones who ever accomplished anything.
>>28108666
I have some kind of fucked up political philosophy that I've cobbled together that manages to make everyone from Nazi to Communist hate me.
>>28108652
Would definitely appropriate your culture, mexibro. It's a shame the way that part of the world is these days. I wish there was a way we could restore the pre-Columbian culture.
>>28108811

There is a difference between cultural exchange and appropriation, which many SJWs and anti-SJWs seem to overlook. Cultural exchange, like listening to hip-hop or watching anime, is perfectly fine and can bring different cultures closer together (much like what happened in the 50's with rock and roll). Cultural appropriation, like wearing indian headdresses or dressing in blackface, is not ok as it cheapens the other culture and often portrays them in a negative light. Technology is in most cases independent of culture, especially in the modern age. Saying that "non-whites using electricity is cultural appropriation" is obviously a fallacious statement, as there is no cultural significance behind electricity.
I don't like when white people wear dreads but that's simply because they look dumb with them.

I don't make a lot of friends.
>>28109085
You sound like a Strasserist.
>>28109054
Nice reading comprehension; I never mentioned anything about everyday dress. Do you really think Indian headdresses and blackface are ok?
>>28109085
Close enough. When you anti-feminist do you mean equality for women or anti "PIV SEX IS RAPE YOU FUCKING SHITLORD"
>>28108993
Doesn't the mass adoption of white culture "cheapen" it? Many people don't believe that Europeans even have culture, since it's become so globalized.
>>28109146
It depends, do you think black people with blond hair is ok?
>>28109085
I'm pretty similar besides economic views. Fuck the peasants.
>>28109196
I think traditional gender roles are for the most part natural and it's for the best if society in general agrees with them.
If someone really doesn't want to settle down and raise a family then I don't think they should be forced to, because that would turn out to be a very unhappy family anyway.
I just think it should be encouraged, and this whole individualistic (haha healthy families are an archaic 50s relic hahaha be polyamorous bruh) shit needs to go.

>>28108993
This has to be bait. How the fuck is there no cultural significance to electricity when it was discovered, refined and aplied by a distinct group of people. You're completely Ass backwards.
The blackface makes no fucking sense. Blackface was invented by whites. Non whites are cheapening white culture by using black face.
Fucking all this. It's proof how retarded this meme is. If something as superficial as skin color or lineage is the criteria for humans to not act like other humans then you're a fucking idiot.

[citation needed]
I understand where you're coming from though, but mass adoption doesn't mean that it is necessarily being cheapened. I already mentioned hip-hop in my previous post; it's been adopted all around the world, but the message hasn't been lost along the way. Same goes for many European things (drawing a blank right now on specific examples). Not to say that there isn't European cultural appropriation, just that mass adoption =/= appropriation.
>>28109267
It doesn't bother me, because blond hair doesn't have a big cultural significance. Though maybe I'm being ignorant of some Nordic people that are offended by this, I don't know.
>>28109359
The compass was discovered, refined, and applied by the Chinese, but that doesn't mean it was culturally significant to them. Just because a culture does a certain thing does not mean it is culturally significant.
Blackface is appropriation because it takes the appearance of black people and uses it to mock them. Most blackface sketches revolved around the person in blackface doing stupid things. Do you see the problem here?
>>28108993
Headdresses can be fine if done tastefully. The problem that arises more often in the >current year is if a guy or girl wears an outfit that has some resemblance to native American style and is criticized as if s/he is wearing blackface in a minstrel show.

How can a headdress be done tastefully? I understand clothing or shoes (moccasins and their variants are pretty popular), but I've never seen someone wear a headdress that wasn't part of a costume.
