Perfect response to this nonsense.
Just look at them straight in the eye and say, “I don’t believe in cultural appropriation. It’s a fantasy and doesn’t exist.”
And walk away.
Sewage systems, fresh water to every house, electricity to every house, hut, and apartment, food available ... transportation. Roads (er, wait, them were roman inventions that the scots improved on ...)
The most horribly offended and most vocal will be perma-smug white women.

In NYV he best pizza places are using Mexicans as their pizza makers Grimaldis in Garden City, a top 5 on Long Island has no Italians, only Mexicans turning out their excellent pies. Does HuffPost believe this too is evil cultural apprpriation?
Having worked for a time in the hallowed halls of the news industry , I’m in on these “reporters’ “ dirty little secret:
Yes, they really do make sh!t up.
How do they come up with “trend” stories? By turning to the “reporter” at the adjacent desk and saying, “I think I’ll do a trend piece. What’s trendy right now?”
And fellow “reporter” (usually a female) relates whatever singular experience that she alone experienced last night, and her particular feeling, interpretation, or outrage in response to her experience.
And the first reporter says, “Eureka! That’s a story!” and hacks it out, by interviewing the adjacent-desked colleague to get some good quotes, while
taking care, of course, to disguise the fellow reporter’s name in the story. Can’t give away their dirty little secrets—that would make them look unprofessional.
I saw this happen too many times to count.
And thus, we are told that (fill in the blank) is “sparking outrage” among the masses, in what we assume are vast numbers of deep thinking arbiters of the public morality, so we’d best hop aboard the outrage train, too, or risk being untrendy.
When in fact, nobody’s outraged except the lone idiot overpaid reporter who is too lazy to report real news, and she’s probably not even outraged, either. Faux outrage just makes a better “story” so that’s just more sh!t they’ve made up.
I have never been anywhere (other than camp) that didn’t have civilized bathroom facilities ... although they were on the edge regarding toilet design in Amsterdam. One would think that an obviously superior design would emerge which everyone would adopt.
I’m not claiming that Americans invented paved roads, but everyone should be able to make them by now. As P.J. said, a few loads of gravel, some sand, and an ox (or the wife and kids) pulling a grader.
“Does that mean only whites should be allowed to drive cars, ride in airplanes or use electricity?”
Well, that’s completely different. But next thing you know, they won’t be letting us honkies use zeros.
And all the stuff invented and developed and improved upon by whites, that other races have appropriated?
let’s all get libtard crazy.
The only cultures liberals can take credit for belong in a Petri dish.
Indians invented Zero, according to the most recent scholarship, and they count as “white” for all preferential programs, although not when others try to do yoga.
Well, the Romans did pretty good - but very, very rough cobbles.
T’was MacAdams of scotland who got the details right” grading, surface and sub-surface drainage, culverts, rock sizes from large to small, top water runoff and culverts ....
Friggin whiners. I’ll continue with my cultural appropriation of making Thai Basil Chicken until the first frost deprives me of my abundant basil resource.
We’ll fill in with tacos and enchiladas till next year.
That's what I like in a road! On the other hand, the Roman version lasts and lasts through anything, while the Scottish improvement needs regular maintenance.
(Are you listening, North Carolina Department of Transporation? MAINTENANCE!)
Years ago in my town the Vietnamese were running the taco bell and the mexicans were cooking at the greek place.
Potty talk. Went camping for a few days with several people last week. Took a plastic yard chair and cut out a circle in the seat and glued a toilet seat onto it.
Put up a tarp enclosure and dug a hole.
As good as an outhouse!
I just barely got those things.
Strange, 75% of Japanese have Bidets, in fact the Bidet is a measure of prosperity.
