I have not heard of this

see im in the camp that its shady not a scam

and look up memeology101 for context or go to pewdiepie

Gotcha

both give good points memeology broke the story

imho it's a scam

Is culture appropriation a real thing

culture isn't a real thing, so cultural appropriation can't be a real thing

if anything, it's appreciation, cultural exchange is the core of human cohabitation

ehhh

it's not really appreciation if you remove all context and change the meaning

or if you copy it for a profit :^)

It can be appreciation, let's say you go to a friend's house who's of another race and culture and you eat dinner with them, and you actually like it

That's not removing context and/or meaning imo

What If you take that meal and profit off it by serving it in a restaurant

Would that be appreciation since your spreading to more people

that wouldn't ever be called appropriation tho, Reynala

Tabmite's scenario might be called appropriation but that's silly imo

Ok, so let's say they teach you about wherever they came from and you learn about how to make ethnic food, would that be appropriation? I've seen Chinese people make texmex food and Spanish people make Chinese food

culture appriation is not a thing its a bs term used when a certain group doesnt like another group using their culture

culture is meant to be spread and shared

That would be more of appreciation since your taking the time learn the background but is it wrong just to use parts of culture without "appreciating it "

it is not owend

Yah, I agree. I don't really think appropriation is a thing

If anything, making parodies of another culture or whatever is either for comedic value or you're just an asshole

i do think disrespect of culture is a thing which if they called it that id be more on board

I think that would be way more accurate

I mean, we make fun of stereotypical American culture all the time, and it's funny

valid

well take a example my culture is irish

>if you remove all context and change the meaning
that means you aren't appropriating if you change it entirely, like mention disrecpect would be a thing

do you think i care non irish people get hammered and celebrate st patts day no lol

like there is no more connection to the cultural thing if you change the meaning and context or is just my language barrier fucking with me ?

culture comes from race.
and pushing culture to other races is cultural appropriation.

well thats a slippery slope then

cause who started that culture

i think the point about calling it disrespect makes sense

because certain cu;ture have been known to adopt other thing from other cultures

Wouldn't the specific group from a specific area start the culture

a lot more understandable than "appropriation"

yea but lets take a example
