Re: Cultural appropriation?

That's stupid. I mean. I understand wanting your culture to stay your own and pure. But. We live in an increasingly global world. There's no way to stop the sharing and (in some cases) taking of bits of one thing and rubbing it in bits of another thing. Yes, people should be educated to be respectful. No, you cannot put the stuff from 'your' culture in a bubble and keep anyone else from touching it, ever.

Um, yeahhh, except you don't have to think very hard to think of some really awful moments in history, and some awful crimes that happen today, because people want their culture to stay "their own" and "pure". It's actually not a good sentiment at all.

I didn't say it was good. I didn't say it was bad. I did not pass any value judgement at all. All I said was that I understand people feeling that way. Because a lot of people do. Human beings don't always feel things that will cause no problems and be perfect.

Fair enough - on a re-read of your comment, I see I was reacting primarily to your first statement there and not enough to your followup. Sorry!
