Is building a snow man racist or just cultural appropriation?

Question

I've never seen a a black snowman and the only yellow one I've seen was thanks to a great dane with a full bladder. Which has got me thinking, if I blacked up a snowman I'd be accused of being racist, so does it follow that if a black person builds a white snowman then they're being racist or even engaging in inappropriate cultural appropriation?

No one claims that a snowman represents a "White" person.

It is like the dumbest thing you ever posted. Kids have made "men" out of mud, dirt and sand since the beginning of time.

No one claims that is a representation of a "Black" or "Brown" person. I don't understand racists. Why not just be racist and stop trying to come up with bullshit logic that justifies "White" supremacy? Just believe in your "White" supremacist nonsense like a religious zealot or extremist.

Every time tried to add body parts on, they tend to fall off or kicked off.

The bigger the bits, the quicker they end up dropping lol

This has led me to believe Snowmen are happy being gender neutral.

Although it’s fun trying to make tackle that sticks in place.

It's just a fun activity mostly kids do. There isn't anything racist or cultural appropriate about it. Some people who live where there's beaches, but no snow, might make a snowman out of sand instead.

I didn't see you complain when you got that yellow slushie from the yellow snowman, which you relished.

This is... one of the dumbest questions ever 😭 ofc a snowman can’t be black. Snow is white. No black person has ever complain about this damn. This is seriously some white guilt or what? Yes ‘blacking’ up a snow man would be racist because you’re just adding fire where there shouldn’t be and making it about race.

Snow flakes falling when you look up at the sky look black 😂 but when they land on the ground they are white. That's magical.

I don't know why you're even asking this, we both know you won't do it.  Who's going to waste that much time to change the snow black just to build a black snowman?  Go do it and post a pic.

I never really thought of snowmen as “men” though. More like a mythological creature like a yeti or Bigfoot.

The first snowman was seen in a book in 1380 and nobody knows who built it.

Let's not pick apart a snowman. Snow is white and your rolling 3 snow balls to make them different sizes and putting them together. There is no race, religion, or sex. It's very simple

But there ARE black snowmen. Only: they are in Africa; that's why we rarely see them.

OddBeMe · Answer

If black people do it, they’re appropriating white snowy culture.
