United Nations Wants to Outlaw Cultural Appropriation Worldwide

The UN wants to expand intellectual property regulations to include cultural entities and concepts, such as clothing, dances, arts, medicines, etc. The UNs efforts would allow for legal action to be taken by minority groups against those who supposedly steal or monetize a piece of their culture.
The United Nations has been making efforts to outlaw cultural appropriation for over fifteen years. Via CBC:
Delegates from 189 countries, including Canada, are in Geneva this week as part of a specialized international committee within the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), a United Nations agency.
Since it began in 2001, the committee has been working on creating and finishing three pieces of international law that would expand intellectual-property regulations to protect things like Indigenous designs, dances, words and traditional medicines.
The meeting takes place as concern grows worldwide about the rights of cultures to control their own materials. In the U.S. this week, designer Tory Burch agreed to change the description of one of her coats for women after Romanians protested that it had been described as African-inspired when it actually appropriated a traditional Romanian garment.

How much longer are Americans to put up with this garbage?
The UN is part of the Deep State to usher in the NWO. It needs to be disbanded yesterday. We should NEVER fund it-—AND it is funded with OUR money.
The Deep State with the Federal Reserve and the Marxist Income tax put in a structure to completely enslave us-—we are paying for our own enslavement.
UN is antithetical to the Constitution—as is so many of their unconstitutional laws and regulations. The WHOLE system needs to be dismantled starting with the skool indoctrination systems which destroy virtue and force ignorance and insanity (where boys are girls) on little children.
So many of our citizens are so brain-dead and immoral from constant brainwashing by the MSM and skools, TV lies, that they are destroying our freedoms. Vice is Virtue, and the evil sodomites glorify evil so that we will all be slaves of the State. Vice creates slavery only. We are supposed to have a Justice System which can ONLY promote “public virtue” (and Truth (God).
What is the Italian equivalent for the middle finger?????
I might want to appropriate that.
And only the US can have mass production on assembly lines. I think the Germans only get diesels and gasoline engines go to England along with the turbine which is why Germans don’t get jets after all. Well and the Wright Brothers.
And the NYtheater cell’’s bastardization of willie the shake’s appropriation of Roman history is now verbotten thanks to the Un.
Protecting culture for some minority groups while at the same time trying to dissolve the culture of countries by insisting on a new world order and open borders!
Waiting for the Un to outlaw nuclear weapons for any of the nonWestern nations....
“Does that mean that I cannot eat a carne asada burrito?”
Well, it’s a good thing TUMs were developed in America, or you’d be SOL.
Per Wiki...”In 1928, Jim Howe, a pharmacist in St. Louis, Missouri, developed Tums in the basement of his home while treating his wife’s indigestion.”
It is an extension of EUssr rules against certains cheeses or wines being made in other parts of the world.
Yes, and the medicines and treatments developed in the west. Deprive the rest of the world of these and the global population might come down to where we in USA can actually thrive. Mosks and hiqabs and ramadance are all Mid-Eastern and East Asian so leave them (and their peoples) right where they are and transport the emigrees right on back there. Might not be such as bad thing.
The best thing that could happen to the UN is 27 rounds of 16”/50.
Sorry Third Worlders, no computers, Internet, TV, radio, automobiles, aircraft, running water, indoor plumbing, modern medicine, non-thatched roofs, firearms, electricity or oil for you.
WHY are you writing to me in English!
Are you from ‘Jolly Old England’?
/S
Okay, southern Mexico, (Chiapas area) and Guatemala. They're essentially neighbors on the isthmus.
But does it have a drive-thru liquor store on the side?
Yeah, we want our money back!
They want to protect words???
Does this mean I won’t be able to say “heap big trouble” anymore?
