No she is not. Please don’t spread this. The Mayor is an inept corrupt piece of shit democrat. She has no business running a city, perhaps a cosmetics line. Just because the mayor is a black woman doesn’t mean she is exempt from reality. She’s worse than O’Malley.

It’s a Maryland thing.

I’m not sure why you think I’m referring to you personally when I don’t know you beyond a online name. I’m simply using you as a placeholder for the immoral majority since you communicate like one. I could care less if your conscience is clear, so was millions of Americans’ as they watched people slaughtered or sold…

You don’t need to publish anything. You just need to recognize, before you appropriate a culture whose demise you are funding, whether or not you have done enough to help stop said demise. Basically are your hands clean before you go through with this? It’s not about outsiders judging you, it’s about you being honest…

How about you help stop the drug war and the prison industrial complex that is comparable to genocide against african americans? Or is that too much to ask of you?

No they just want to be able to culturally appropriate while funding the systems that kills and dehumanizes the culture they are taking from.

No, I think when they do take from oppressed cultures that they speak out on the problems facing said cultures. Yes of course they should be held accountable when they are part of a system that preys on certain cultures. That's the only moral thing to do.

As of right now it seems like they are allowed to appropriate each other since they are fighting similar struggles. But that's not any of our call, that's between them.

Meh, people are missing my point. Cultural appropriation isn't that big of a deal to me I just recognize that even "celebration" of a culture is kind of lame when you are actively contributing to its demise. You want to start a blue eyed soul band while your taxes help fund a drug war that decimates black communities?…

Actually I'm saying that through art we should be able to come together and end major problems. How is it ok to incorporate things with origins from Africa when you are actively contributing to the demise of the people from Africa? That's insane and completely immoral.

I think there is less of a problem of cultural appropriation when you aren't actively contributing to the demise of those particular demise of said cultures. African and Native American(central american included) especially are off limits. I agree that some people are just too sensitive, but when you are responsible…

Not gonna lie, Scarlett in GITS kinda made me mad. Anime isn’t something that necessarily needs to be live action, in fact the best of it should be left alone, especially by Americans.

So quick to get upset over irrelevant things like this, but can’t make any progress where it counts.

Perhaps they are thinking trickle down economics will work here. Revolution, meh.

The really funny ones are the most fucked up ones. That's the easiest way I can put it. They don't have to play along, just don't come along if it hurts. We all experience things that hurt us, suck it up and focus on the job. I'm not really arguing in favor of much, just highlighting the reality of working certain…

You would be surprised at how popular those types of jokes are in certain circles. It's not the only jokes but there the best because once you have your closed circle where no one gets offended and everybody keeps their mouth closed, the wrongness of it multiplies how funny the joke is.

I'm saying we say crude demeaning things about each other, if she want's to be part of the group she needs to get with the program. If I tell my guy co worker he's ugly and shaped like a pear, we laugh and move on. If I joke like that with a woman, I'm not sure that she's cool with it even if she plays it that way.…

Meh, any joke can be funny and dark humour is as fine as any other type of humour. Funny is subjective. My coworkers obviously hurt more than I would if I wouldn't be able to tell the jokes, but I would be happy and my friends would be laughing. So it comes down to this, me and the gang happy and laughing with a sad…

The ones you might look in the eye everyday. The ones you allow to lord over you your entire life. The stereotypical white, wealthy, elite male who populate the tech and finance industries and seek to preserve the status quo at all cost, even while undermining democracy and America.

I concur, it's due to a lack of respect a lot of the time.
