At some point someone needs to point out that ‘culture’ is a concept and not a lockbox. Cultural assimilation has been an on-going process since there were identifiable ‘cultures!’ Anyone who says the word ‘pajama’ and is not an Urdu speaker is practicing cultural ‘appropriation’ from the British Raj.

At one time, it was education that alerted us to the cultural richness our modern world has made available to us. We could enjoy yoga derived from the Indian subcontinent cultures and potatoes from South America or American cowboy-derived Stetson hats.

Now we have institutions of mislearning pandering to overly-sensitized cultural NAZI behavior. It is the ART of imposing one’s delicate and easily offended FEELINGS to exercise POWER and entitlement on others!

I think that this will inevitably collapse under its own weight of conflicting IDIOCIES and idiosyncrasies as various groups struggle to prove that theirs is the more important victimhood. Indeed, with stories like this, I am of the growing opinion that members of these pressure groups are just trying to out-do one another in their outrage just to enjoy that power-feeling of justification.

Please GOD, let their comeuppance come SOON!

Maybe this is a start to their comeuppance. Do we know this is not a Freeper type slyly using their own tactics against them?
