All of them due to cultural appropriation. Because, wearing a kimono says it all.

And she apologized for this?

That’s even stupider than the morons who scream about “cultural appropriation” as if it is some sort of crime.

MMA needs to ban Brazilian Jiu Jitsu since they “appropiated” it from the Japanese. Only MMA fighers from Japan should be allowed to use Jiu Jitsu.

No more sushi for me. Only Japanese should be allowed to eat sushi.

This is what 60 years of Cultural Marxism have brought us.

People (mainly white) have been taught to always feel guilt - and now self-police their own thinking.

Any mentally ill or leftist freak with a twitter account can now shame thousands of people with one meaningless slogan on “diversity” or “racism.”

Moochie and her daughters have "White" hair. What's up with that?

So I guess people who aren't White can't use phones, cameras, computers, planes, autos, Western medicine, Western agriculture and engineering, etc...

I thought the “cultural appropriation” was artfully done and appropriately done. Karlie Kloss may have opened up a new rage in the fashion world with the Geisha Look. Wow! Move over PajamaGram®. I want my wife to have that Geisha Look for bedtime!

From the picture, it appears that she is only dressed in Asian clothes with an Asian wig. At least they didn’t try to make her eyes look almond shaped! THAT would be real cultural appropriation.
