I'm pretty sure you're kidding about the rice cooker, but I'd love to see someone actually make that argument, even as a troll.

I'm still hoping it's a troll, but read it and weep - "I have strong feelings about rice": http://queerandpresentdanger.tumblr.com/post/70015687820

That's not getting mad at white people for owning rice cookers, though, just for making fun of them.

Ehm, who's making fun of them? Mostly I just see a bunch of people not knowing how to use one...

One person made fun of them. The rest of the people either weren't familiar with them or use them to make a variety of foods rather than just rice, and the poster took as much issue with those people as with the one person who made a joke.

Which is still REALLY SILLY. And like someone else said most of them weren't even doing that.

*blink* I....I don't even know what to say to that.

Nothing. The very best thing is not to engage.

She's not. There was some idiot who had very strong fee-fees about white people owning rice cookers. I don't have the link, but I remember one line being: 'Not everything is for you, white people!'

Because rice cooker manufacturers care about the color of the people who buy cooking appliances.

I swear I once saw someone on tumblr saying "paisley isn't for white people" (in they were very ANGRY about it too)

and I was just like "...oh my loooooooord...whyy"

What? The only people I ever see wearing it are white. Oh, tumblr. I hate that site, but I don't want it to change. Ever.

Ahhh

TBH I do mostly because of the bullshit on there...and a person I knew (IMO) started to change since they started arguing with SJWs all the time. :(

*sighs*

That's sad. Bring them over to FS. Let our virulent anti-tumblr rhetoric heal them.

Eh...We're not really in contact. We sorta parted ways.

and besides...I felt like the whole "anti-tumblr" thing was actually the problem TBH. *shrug*

I once spent some time trying to argue with SJWs and spread more informed SJ knowledge but after a while I realized how much the negativity was getting to me by focusing on them so much.

and so I left and took care of my own blog. Ever since then I haven't bothered and only stuck to talking about an issue I had firsthand knowledge and experience with (issues related to autism/Asperger Syndrome)and only every now and then.

IMO it's important not to go far in either direction.

Careful. You sound like a reasonable adult.

Thank you.

*laughs*

...Even though a lot of it was produced in Paisley, Scotland, which is, IDK... an area made up of a lot of white people?

Eeeyuuup

Clearly they didn't think it out beyond "I DON'T THINK WHITE PEOPLE SHOULD TOUCH THIS!!11"

Honestly a lot of the way some parts of tumblr treat "cultural appropriation" reminds me of a child going "THESE ARE MINE YOU CAN'T HAVE THEM"

I mean, yeah, paisley design came from Iranian designs, but paisley has been paisley for 200-something-odd years. It's like the same people that complain about white people drinking tea. It's not appropriation if the tea-drinking or paisley-wearing is actually ingrained into the culture.

WHY isn't paisley for Whites?
