Your response is perfect. Thank you.

“The Christening”

That story of a trip to see POTC with a nun on St. Patricks Day actually sounds like a good movie, or a scene from a good movie at the very least.

No, no, no... We are going to flash-forward and show the Book of Revelations brought to life via CGI and the talents of Sir Ian Mckellan and Patrick Stewart as horsemen (via voiceovers and mo-cap) of the apocalypse, Helena Bonham Carter voicing God and Jim C. Returning as Christ.

Even so, are we going to say Janis Joplin should not have performed the music she did, in the manner she did? She and her performance had zero to do with the systemic racism that kept people of color off the radio.

So, assuming I concede your point, which I do not, should Ms. Trainor have recorded her album and then vetted it against some panel of cultural experts to evaluate for how much she has appropriated?
