Okay then, I'd better not catch any of you guys in lederhosen unless you've earned them, or I'm pressing charges!
Also, does this mean I can't eat Mexican or Chinese food anymore?
Also, I want to see them try to enforce this pretty much anywhere in the Middle East. Also Russia. Also China.

Not to mention all the American and British rock performers who essentially appropriated Black music styles.

Aaaannnddd... back to needing a plague.

Aaaaand that's
how you get Trump why only useful idiots take them seriously.
And also, how you get Trump.

When did the NAZI party take over the UN?

It was set up by a communist...

Maybe people should be careful of what they wish for - I'm thinking of some people of African origin and their current claim of "cultural ownership" of hoop earrings, when Italian women were wearing them thousands of years ago.
And I'm also thinking of various groups living in teepees, igloos, and grass/mud huts just a handful of generations ago who have appropriated everything from electricity and modern medicine to automobiles and window glass . . .

It's cute that the UN wants to pretend they can do anything.

They're out to get Monkeyleg.
No more moccasins!

They can have my tacos when they scrape them out of my cold, dead wok.

Well said. And they best not touch my Korean taco stand. [ar15]

Is it cultural appropriation when straight people have anal sex?
-
Folks of European Descent need to make a cultural claim to the idea of limited government and individual rights over the whim of the government. Sick of other folks using our system! Get back to your tribe.

They have been pretending that for a long time. I think it is written into their charter.

Oh man, I could see a fantastic courtroom TV show come out of this!
Next on "Whose Culture Is It?" we have a mixed race trio of jazz musicians, all accused of appropriating some other culture's culture!
I used to think that getting out of the UN would be a horrible thing to do.
Now I think it's ludicrous to even consider staying in it because it's become even more of a retarded clown circus that I could have ever imagined.

I'm pretty sure a retarded clown circus would be far more useful, and far less of a nuisance to mankind, than the U.N.

A retarded circus clown knows he's a clown; he's there to make people laugh at him.
The U.N. doesn't know why they're there or why people are laughing.
-
A single retarded circus clown, yes.
But when they cluster together? They begin to think that they're normal.
And that's where the hilarity ensues.

I figure everyone can potentially fall victim to the echo chamber when it comes to their viewpoint, but I really think leftist liberals have done so. It seems every left leaning organization has veered off the mainstream over the last decade. There is no thought to maintaining the appearance of objectivity or neutrality. If global warming were starting up today, that whole song and dance about 95% of climate scientists agreeing wouldn't even be voiced as there would be no attempt to justify it at all.

That describes the DNC pretty well.

I think "Retarded Clown Circus" would be a great name for a band..

Do you want Juggalos? Because that's how you get Juggalos.

the UN is irrelevant.

I'm thinking of a show where the cultural appropriation issue is pants, and the accused have only a cultural tradition of wearing loincloths, grass skirts, hollow horns . . . or nothing. :O

If somebody far away wears blue jeans, who's culture is being appropriated? I ask because as a melting pot it's never clear who is appropriating from who. Also, I got a notice that my agency is "celebrating" (their word) LGBT month. Am I allowed to celebrate the month even though I'm hetero or is it only the asexual agency that can celebrate?

Well, blue jeans are an American invention, but credited to Ashkenazi immigrants from two different countries. "Denim" comes from the French language.
I'm so confused right now.
