"They're appropriating a culture that isn't theirs and using it as a joke," wrote one student on MEChA's Facebook page

I've learned the best way to reply to that to shut them up is to say YES, I DID.

Geez. In the Hippy Daze, a Mexican Serape and sandals made from old tires coming from Mexico were cool. How times have changed.

All of this coheres in a sick way:

The people who as kids regarded ANYTHING as a limit on their freedom as adults now insist that EVERYTHING is out of bounds.

From the unruly village anarchist to the Evil Church Lady in the fancy house up on the hill.

I remember in elementary school doing the Mexican hat dance. I guess that isn’t allowed any more. We also sang Pick a Bale of Cotton.

A hat = a culture?

This is an Ivy League school. What passes for intelligent now is a far cry from what defined intelligent twenty years ago. But Cornell offered this immature snowflake admission, so they deserve each other.

If this is what students are up to nowadays, why not just abolish student government and let the adults run the show?

ok — no more cultural appropriation.

Let’s start with no more black people being allowed to play basketball, which was invented by a white college phys ed instructor for his white students.

Then let’s talk about no electricity for non-white people.

The university is developing a form so you can get three signatures from members of another ethnic group to approve you wearing their clothing.

Most insurgent groups vaccilate wildly between opposite extremes:

1. We’re being excluded. We want to be at the CORE.

2. Embracing us is suffocating. To thrive we need to be APART.

So you see a weird political schizophrenia.

“It’s injurious when whites know nothing about us. But when they wear the Sombreros that they enjoy IT’S LIKE THEY KICKED ME IN THE GUT, OH GAWD..!!!”

They can modulate between the two poles in seconds, and it’s not just Mexicans.

Probably blacks are the worst offenders..?

Dear Snowflake,

America is a melting pot of cultures. We’ll appropriate whatever the heck we want from any culture that lives here, and you can pound sand all the way back to your safe place.

Kindest regards,
