Just got done talking in class about cultural appropriation during Halloween
As in, the context in which it *actually* occurs (our culture being appropriated)?
Did you tell the black girls they are culturally appropriating European hair styles? <:teehee:381917632359563264>
and our language... (usually poorly)
Having a functional society is cultural appropriation of whites
I mean anyone whose not Celtic and celebrates Halloween is technically appropriating their culture
The irony is she just talked about the history of Halloween before talking about costumes
Celtic...I'm good.
You all get the H pass from a Kernowyon
Same.
Little black girls wearing Victorian dresses for halloween is cancelled
@Ald Alright, you're gonna need to stop using Cornish words as if more than twenty people on the planet still speak it, lol.
Patrick will be on JRE...it's nothing.
What if I learned Cornish
@Freiheit - CA is bored today...
That would be such a fantastic larp
I was like, "The 'H' pass from a Klingon, lol?"
That it would...
@Asatru Artist - MD I dunno Scots are pretty Germanic
@Ald Ya gotta get yer swag flag to hang next to the ol' Dragon Eye and Starts and Stripes:
@Goose about what
halloween costumes being bad
Good idea, it is a cool flag innit
@Virgil Scotch and Beer...whatever? :-p
@Virgil Scots is actually a Germanic language (if you consider it a language, rather than a dialect of English) 🤓☝
My professor gave the same bit where if you dress as a cholo/asian/native you are le racist whites
summer in cornwall... 🍿
@Ald Just remember, when visiting Cornwall: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHjlM5A1jME
@StevePines -WA should've told her celebrating Halloween is culturally appropriating white culture
I wanted to but that would probably get me kicked out of class
@StevePines -WA Why would anybody want to dress up like that in the first place?
I've had to grit my teeth so much through that class
@Virgil her examples were almost exclusively the sexy variants of those
"hey let's commercialize a Celtic/Pagan/Christian holiday. but make sure to leave jewish and muslim holidays alone"
to be fair, what are you going to sell on Ramadan...[fed posts]?
@StevePines -WA then you definitely should've told her to stop policing what women wear
Lowkey wish I was in a super shitlib college to argue with people
@StevePines -WA Ah I see the exotic fetish kind of stuff. I had a sociology professor make the same argument once lol
