I am assuming you are being sarcastic.

There is no such thing as cancel culture so of course I don’t want him canceled. I just want the guy with wrong opinions to never work again and to give a public apology to all of those he has physically hurt with his words.

How can you not denounce him as Elba seems to be getting awful close to suggesting that there is a cancel culture.

exactly, pulling of those shows have nothing to do with protecting minorities from the kind of harmful imagery these shows had, but protecting said shows and white people from being called out in the future. dont hide your hand, yall knew exactly what yall were doing with those episodes, just be prepared to explain…

I don’t think “we” did anything. But also: “LaToya.”

It is cultural appropriation, but the idea that we should be concerned about using such a phrase is silly.

that is kind of gawker in a nutshell. real appropriation is bad. a silly term from the nebulous miasma of new agey terms is not referring to these monolithic “native americans” animistic religion was practiced all over the world, and for most people its a jumbled harry potter/ game of thrones reference anyhow(and for…

Yes and that’s what is nonsensical about this, there is no Native americans debating on this. Just mainly a bunch of white people trying to stir some shit up.

Wait, I thought we cancelled 30 Rock for blackface? Or is it cool because the person reviewing is called “Latoya”?

(pssstttt... “spirit animals” have nothing to do with indigenous American civilizations).

are we really going to segregate language to try to wash away some of the guilt some white people carry because other white people did shit in the past?
Spirit Animal are english words dude! This has to be the most nonsensical debate I have ever seen.

no because cultural appropriation is made up bullshit. culture is meant to be shared. its just something people bitch about when they see someone enjoying something and they think they dont deserve it. 

I know multiple people who have told me that saying that is blasphemy toward the lord and I should never do it. You should try meeting christians occasionally

Yeah... I mean, if that’s your most damning example of the show “ignoring” complaints of racism you’re really scratching the bottom of the barrel.  I can even kind of see how that might be accurate but, if that’s the hill you’re going to die on I doubt there are many workplaces you’re going to find “non-toxic.”

The problem with that is that it’s a stupid thing to say generally, not that it’s ‘cultural appropriation’ in any way.

It is something white people came up with in conjunction with neoshamanism. It would be more offensive if it was “what is your totem?” because that’s actually indigenous. They're not the same thing at all. As is, asking what someone’s spirit animal is in a serious manner is akin to asking what color aura they have.

“Spirit animal” sounds like something white Americans thought up in the 1970s, like having a Sicilian play the Crying Indian.

Hell, the very letters we are using to communicate in are a Phoenician invention, modified by the Greeks and then Romans.

Wait, do I have to be Italian to say “pizza is my spirit animal”?

I mean if we go back long enough all of humanity was descended by cultures who wondered their spiritual connection with animals through art.
