the rice thing l o l

like if someone fucks up pierogi or whatever its not ~insensitive to my polish heritage~ despite me learning all of that poo poo from a 90 yr old woman who cant speak english. it sure is offensive calling a bunch of beef chunks and limp onions goulash but its not offensive to my cultural identity despite it being my cultural identity

i guess its not appropriative because poland is of the white, pure, slavic erace and im missing the point b/c saying that is Problematic and belittles those who are oppressed but what do i know

not to mention the cultural appropriation when you see americans wearing adidas track suits.

Oberlin is somewhat cool as being the first US uni to have co-ed classes and also admit black students.

Oberlin college is exactly where the terrible people in the article congregate. Also it's in Ohio so that's really all that needs to be said about that shithole.

I imagine Afrikan Heritage House is a society full of Afrikaner boers including a authentic "slegs vir blankes" sign at the entry.
Anything other would be appropriation of the proud boer culture and the Afrikaans language.

As a gay man seeing LGBTQIA+ used with sincerity and seriousness in one of those articles makes me real loving mad because good god that looks like such a loving joke. The struggle against adversity is about finding common ground and working seriously and maturely against it not being bogged down in the minutia and specificity of labeling and safe space accommodation.

Well, maybe part of the issue is that 'adversity' is a bit vague as far as opponents go.

Oberlin students also wanted the establishment of black only "safe" places across campus.

This particular demand was pretty hilarious to me since Oberlin was the first US university to admit black students.

Stop appropriating the Hungarian culture by eating goulash, shitlord

Also I think the Japanese should start paying royalties or something to the Portuguese for centuries of brazen tempura abuse.

Countdown until the tumblr left perpetrates their very own Reichstag burning (or, you know, some more poo poo swastikas) and forms an LGBTQIOULMNOP secret police to sniff out microaggressors and appropriators. If we're lucky, they'll get caught up in infighting and all hound each other to suicide!

Realistically, though, they're just going to bitch and make the lives of the kitchen staff forced to cater to their hysterically bourgeois tastes even more miserable and difficult. "EXCUSE ME, Juan, that sushi rice is overcooked. Why don't you just put Satomi here in an internment camp while you're at it, you Capitalist Pig!"

There are reports of campus hate crimes that turn out to be staged reasonably often already.

That's not a fun fact. Indians/people that eat beef can't call themselves Hindu, because it breaks many major rules in all sects of Hinduism. There's never been any provision in any book for anyone to kill and eat the cow. Even the ruling class, who can pretty much eat anything and go hunting for sport without worrying about karma, are not allowed. Because the cow/bull offer so many services with milk products possible to make, field tilling, cart pulling, dung for fuel/heat, etc., you were/are considered a retard to go kill a cow to eat for one meal when you could get like 20+ years of milk/cheese/butter and industrial services out of it. If you actually want to talk Hindu thought on it, since heaven and hell are temporarily visited places, the punishment for killing a cow (killing, selling, and eating are considered the same act) is as many years in hell as the cow had hairs on its body. The cow is considered one of the 7 mothers that a person must respect as his/her own mother, and you don't kill your mother (and if you do, you get a big karmic penalty).
Most of today's Hindus are really just "Hindus" who claim it because it becomes like an ethnicity type of thing, without knowing a single thing about it other than maybe at best the basic Ramayan and Mahabharat plot lines. It's a caste/hereditary claim with no practice or knowledge.

Those Rajputs selling beef are full of poo poo.

so if you shave the cow first you're in the clear?
