Steven Universe, Star vs. The Forces of Evil, and Gravity Falls are pretty great too. But they fucked up Teen Titans and The Powerpuff Girls.

It's not some absolute numbers game. We can focus on multiple issues at a time.

Nah, but it dates back to the Incas and Aztecs. Then a white guy patented it some time later. But George Washington Carver did come up with a ton of uses for peanuts, as well as his innovations with farming.

Sure they may have started it. But the majority of the slaves were born and raised in the US.

The difference is that one is trained. I can at least somewhat understand with mental illness if it helps you cope, but if you want actual treatment, then you can't rely just on self-diagnosis.

It's not a matter of calling everything cultural appropriation. But there are instances in which it should be called out. It's not so much extreme as it is polite.

I can group Hitler and the Pope together, as they're both Catholic. I could group Nicki Minaj with Rosa Parks, as they are both black women. Would that be right? You can make your groups include whatever you want, as long as they are broad enough. But would it be correct?

You can't just modify my metaphors. And the KKK and Nazis at least would be okay with eachother. This "transracial" group has little to no support from those who dislike cultural appropriation. In fact, all this "transracial" junk is entirely contrary to such ideas. It is anathema to them.

Those people are shunned. You're overgeneralizing. It would be like grouping Nazis and the KKK with Catholics and Christians.

It's different then. Chinese food is just food. It's not religious or heavily cultural. It's another thing if the white guy decides to call himself Chinese. I'm sure even you can see the problems with being disrespectful towards someone's culture or religion, like if you made a Jesus-themed gay porno, blackface, or weaboos in general.

Appropriation is when it's used disrespectfully, or without full acknowledgement of the background. So many white people just want the dreads to be like Bob Marley, but they don't realize that black people have been judged for their dreads. Amenities, tools, and other such objects that don't hold meaning can't be appropriated. Religious and cultural items can be.
