Cultural appropriation is the PROFITEERING off of STOLEN ideas of another culture. NOT a white guy in a sombrero. So no.

[Sparks32]

Australia trains many many times more colored doctors than white doctors same goes with IT professionals and so on. The founding fathers of modern medicine and computer science along with almost all areas of Academia were all White. Are white ideas are for everyone just like white countries are then?

[TwoToTooTutu2]

Yeah just like Cornrows are free. Wear them to your hearts content

[Sparks32]

@TwoToTooTutu2 So White people using white Science almost invented everything. Those inventions are white ideas that everyone profits from, right? Cars, trains, planes, Electrical infrastructure, water treatment systems, Electronics, The scientific method and the list goes on and on.

[TwoToTooTutu2]

There is no such thing as white science. Those were all individual inventions.

[Sparks32]

They weren't individual inventions but were developed by many white people. You are lucky we taught everyone the science that makes the modern way of life possible. Everyone profits from our ideas while POC accuses us of doing everything that they themselves do.

[TwoToTooTutu2]

What have you invented?

[Anonymous]

No silly. It’s only cultural appropriation when White people do it. Didn’t you know there are double-standards?

[Anonymous]

Yes.
I hate double standards

[Birdlegs]

How is using electricity and medicine cultural appropriation? I don’t believe in cultural appropriation personally I think anybody can partake in culture as long as you don’t disrespect it, but your examples really just don’t make sense

[Sparks32]

I only want to hear from people that believe in Cultural Appropriation thanks.

[Sparks32]

taking credit for the achievements of another culture is one form of cultural appropriation I read.

[caitycat21]

I thought trolls were supposed to be funny

[Sparks32]

Progressives have no sense of humour anyway and they cry when presented the truth. No body is laughing when dealing with double standards anyway little girl.

[caitycat21]

“Progressives have no sense of humor” in other words you get butt hurt when leftists make memes because you’re the one with no sense of humor

[Sparks32]

@caitycat21 lol A Leftist meme lets hear one! Lets play a fun game we exchange a few memes and the first to get insulted losses ok? do you want to go first or should I?

[caitycat21]

I’m not arguing with a 48 year old about Facebook memes

[joeldalton]

Absolutely

[MountAverage]

Um, no?

[Sparks32]

Can anyone tell me what it is then? Thanks

[HeartFullOfGlue]

What what is?

[Sparks32]

@HeartFullOfGlue what is cultural appropriation? What is it?

[HeartFullOfGlue]

Look it up

[Sparks32]

@HeartFullOfGlue I can't seem to find a clear definition.

[MountAverage]

It basically refers to when aspects of a culture of an oppressed minority are being adopted and exploited by members of the dominant culture for their own benefits, without the minority benefitting from it.
People who claim cultural appropriation isn't a thing simply make the mistake of believing it to be the same thing as cultural exchange in general, which of course is a wonderful thing.

[Sparks32]

@mountaverage So there are Different rules for the oppressed minority. well I've watched black people single out a white person for a 10 or more on 1 gang beating many times that i found to be very oppressive and their are many more of them then white people so I guess white people are the oppressed minority now then.

[MountAverage]

Ah, you're one of those white supremacist "great replacement" conspiracy assholes. Go fuck yourself, Nazi pig.

[HeartFullOfGlue]

@mountaverage seeeeeeems like it

[SmokinAces2000]

Are you retarded?

[Sparks32]

why don't you explain your position rather then act like a little smart ass.

[SmokinAces2000]

How can I explain my position on something that doesn’t even make sense

[Sparks32]

@SmokinAces2000 Why did you ask if i was retarded? does Cultural appropriation exist? is it a real thing? what is it? according to you.

[SmokinAces2000]

Is electricity or “white medicine” as you call it part of “white culture”?

[Sparks32]

everyone else got the question but you seem to have a reading and comprehension problem, You also don't know what cultural appropriation is so go look it up and if you feel like sharing what you found then i'll be here.

[SmokinAces2000]

I do know what it is and like I said electricity and medicine isn’t part of a culture

[Sparks32]

@smokinaces Using the scientific method to innervate and discover the principles that make our use of electricity and modern medicine possible is part of white culture that the rest of the world adopted this order capitalize on our hard work. One definition I read was:- Cultural Appropriation is taking ideas from another race in order to capitalize from it. our achievements and countries belong to everyone else every form of right and nationalism is respected except white nationalism and rights so there is a very clear double standard here.

[SmokinAces2000]

“White culture”? That doesn’t exist

[Sparks32]

@SmokinAces2000 White culture exists. It's just that you don't notice it for what it is because everyone has adopted it. Like BQQ's are enjoyed by everyone but it was done widely by white people before everyone else started doing it. just because I cook with a Wok doesn't mean it isn't part of Chinese culture.

[SmokinAces2000]

Irish, English, Spanish, Italian, those are cultures white isn’t a culture

[OddBeMe]

You’re a moron

[Sparks32]

Yet you can't tell me why without exposing the double standards you bought into, isn't it about time you grow up being 38 and all.

[OddBeMe]

Yet being 10 years older and your intellect is that of a child.

[OddBeMe]

Just as stupid as saying America was discovered by natives so we’re appropriating Native American culture.
