White people who do a downward-facing dog are contributing to a system of power, privilege, and oppression, according to a Michigan State University professor.LOL.

I’ll acknowledge these moronic cultural appropriation police and ugly race shaming immediately after they stop all black people from playing basketball—a game invented a white guy in Massachusetts.

We have a process by which novel ideas can be protected for a limited time in order to benefit everyone through innovation. We call this “patenting.”
On the other hand, natural law dictates we have an innate right to learn from observing others. We can learn from their successes and failures.
Appropriating the actions and experiences of others is an innate human right. It is natural law. We are not slaves. We are free people.
Anyone promoting the wrongheaded concept of “cultural misappropriation” is a slavery advocate. We fought a costly war to end that in this country. But we can do it again if need be.

Can someone put up a “ Oh jeez not this chit again” sign.

apparently Shreena Gandhi missed the message....that the practice of yoga will lead you to a sense of peace and well-being, and also a feeling of being at one with their environment. I 'spose Shreena needed some ink, showing a great lack of intelligence makeing a remark like yoga contributing to a system of power, privilege, and oppression"....parents, send your child to a trade school where he/she will learn something useful.

...Americans who practice yoga are contributing to white supremacy and promote the yoga industrial complex. Laughed so loud I woke MrsProv1322.

Doesn’t Michigan State have enough issues from coddling Larry Nassar for years to have to deal with this dingbat?

We need to step back and let these people self-immolate. The more absurd and preposterous their claims, the more voters will come to see liberalism as the derangement it really is.

Nothing wrong with women doing the downward facing dog...;) Well, some women, anyways...
The supremacy of ‘whiteness’ is an empirical observation, innit? Unbelievable bullsh!t.

...reduce the cost of yoga classes for poor people, a group that often includes people of color and recent immigrants, such as Indian women to whom this practice rightfully belongs, Gandhi argued. Yoga belongs to Indian men, not Indian women.

What would be even funnier is if people really paid attention to these opinions and changed their behavior as a result.

Oh my GOD, doing yoga is racist? Dear liberals, I'm a white, happily married married man with kids. Tell me what is not racist, so I won't offend you...
Oops, I think being a white, happily married man with kids is racist to liberals....😀

We can solve the problem by changing the name of that position from downward facing dog to “upward facing @ss”.
