Latest Hypocrisy of the Left: Cultural Appropriation [W:41]

I love how the left accuses the right of being socially controlling, but the fact is the left is more involved in the social sphere of things than the right could ever dream of being.

From the guy that wants his book of fairy tales in everyone's bedroom no less.
 
It's true. Some bitch was yelling at some white guy because he had dreadlocks, and apparently that's 'cultural appropriation'.


In which case the woman is not only rude, but a racist.

Dreadlocks have nothing to do with race. In fact the earliest examples of this type of braiding are found in ancient Greece. Many sects in India, who are Caucasian practice the art to this day.

The practice began in North America by Rastafarians in a religious practice, not cultural. The dreads who copied some of the traditions in Ethiopia, as representative of "The Lion of Judah"

They became a copy-cat fad after the film "Marked for Death" as representing the criminal or gangsta thing

Exactly. These 'Cultural Appropriation' morons make me want to drive a tire iron into someone's head. First off, they act like they can "own" a culture, which is impossible. And secondly, they state that white people aren't allowed to participate in different cultures because of the fact that they are white, but then somehow they aren't racist for saying that (It's that prejudice + power BS). It literally makes no sense.
 
Where do you find this ****ing garbage? I never knew it was a belief of "the left" that white people cant get dreadlocks....

It's not. Fusion placed a video asking if it was okay. Although the video seems to conclude that they don't like it, the vast majority of comments made indicate the exact opposite.
