You are incapable of intelligent response.

Except with spec work if you don’t get paid the client is not still able to use your work. In this case, all work submitted will belong to the company whether you win and get the money or not.

So, huge difference, actually. 

Sure it is. That doesn’t change anything I said. All the losers get shit and their stuff is still owned forever by someone else. Plus all the other things they get to own, holy shit! I mean sell your soul, it’s yours.

Holy shit!

Wow, $5000 is pretty cheap for so much content. Because I’m sure they get to own all submissions and are free to use any and all ideas submitted. 

Oh, what, no response? Now who’s making claims without being able to back them up? Fucking, YOU.

Feel free to act dismissive and claim that you’re leaving the conversation anytime, as your type often does when they can’t get their way.

I am absolutely arguing in good faith, frankly I don’t find that NoOnesPost is acting in good faith here because all they’ve said to me is that my statement isn’t any good. They’ve explained nothing and when proven wrong about what a rebuttal actually is they disappear. They made no attempt to engage meaningfully at…

Oh, a whole shitload huh? And what would all those claims be specifically?

That’s absolutely true. That’s also a terrible reason to say some people should not wear certain hairstyles.

Except, the entire top should be covered in a layer of onion. You should not see the green beans.

Your statement was not an accurate representation of the behavior of people on this site who complain about cultural appropriation. They are not that reasonable. There is no amount of appreciation that will stop them from complaining about the wrong people wearing the wrong hairstyles.

I don’t know why you think your…

It is a rebuttal to your statement that:

Again, what does that have to do with anything I said?

Or are you just saying “nuh uh” in the fanciest way you can think of?

My comment stands.

What does that have to do with anything?

Holy shit, maybe give it a bit of time or check another site?

The issue is specifically when it doesn’t appreciate the originators.

It’s because everyone is chomping at the bit to be offended and get pissed at someone.

“Cultural appropriation” is one of the dumbest things people get upset about. No one owns a culture, and no one has the right to tell someone else what clothes they can wear or how they can style their hair. 

I think you have a point because there is and should be a difference between historical blackface which was intended to mock people, and dressing up as a particular character for purposes that everyone agrees are not to mock or put anyone down.
