Serves these two right for living in “culturally appropriate only” Oregon. Even in LA they could’ve made a go at it.

¿Tinga de pollo, algunos?

Why isn't "Transgender" considered "Sexual Appropriation"?

Ok ... let’s for a moment accept that white people should not make traditional foods of indigenous Mexicans. Cultural appropriation and all that.

But, the same rule should apply to indigenous Mexicans. So: no flour tortilla, no beef, no chicken, and no onion should be allowed in the authentic, indigenous Mexican tortilla. Also, cheese is a European invention, so that’s ruled out as well. No cilantro, either. Because all of these ingredients — which account for about 90% of the typical burrito — originated in either Europe or Asia.

A recognizable burrito is pretty much impossible if limited to ingredients that are native to the Americas. It would only be a genuine, indigenous Mexican burrito, untainted by Mexican appropriation of European and Asian ingredients, if it were a corn tortilla stuffed with fish or meat from a nutria or other rodent, tomatoes, and peppers.

What about the cultural appropriation by the Italians using tomatoes (origin in Central and South America) or the Irish using potatoes (origin in the Andes)? Or Latinos using wheat tortillas?

When I lived in Germany I frequented a
Chinese Food restaurant owned and operated by Italians.

Can you imagine how triggered a snowflake would be at that!

I remember being in Iquitos Peru and the housewives were crazy about I Love Lucy. I guess it had recently been dubbed in Spanish. This was in the 70s.

James Naismith (November 6, 1861 – November 28, 1939) was a Canadian-American physical educator, physician, chaplain, sports coach and innovator. He invented the game of basketball at age 30 in 1891.

So does this mean that only Whites can play basketball?

Their first mistake was starting a restaurant in a racist area.
Their second mistake was granting an interview with a leftist racist rag to start with.
Their third mistake was telling the truth as how they come about.

Any minority using a cell phone is ‘appropriating’ technology developed by whites.

We had better all stop eating noodles and pasta, because Chinese claim they gave those to marco polo in the 13th century

When I was in Brazil I had Pizza in an Italian Restaurant owned by a German. It was after the war if you know what I mean!

But... but... the white girls were just trying to be “diverse”. Isn’t that what all the leftists want?

Or maybe they “identify as” Mexican women. That should get them some level of protection, right?

And they only “stole” the recipe and tortilla-making technique out of necessity and desperation so we all need to have sympathy for their situation. Portlandians need to understand their struggle and stop oppressing them.

ban any movie or show made by white people about non whites...

With white folks just doing and promoting the ideas, food, music, and art of white folks, I guess the 'flakes want America to have an all-white culture. It worked before, I guess it could work again just fine. Most people truthfully haven't been enchanted with this "diversity" shtick of the past 20 years anyway.

Or speaking or reading English.

Did he really though?

So does this mean that only Whites can play basketball?

Only if the Olmecs let them.
