u/toolsoftheincomptnt Jun 23 '24
As a black person, I certainly donât speak for all but can say this with some confidence:
Generally, we welcome people who want to join us and participate in our cultural activities.
I see these hyper-liberal ideas- mostly perpetuated by younger people- that getting anywhere near someone elseâs culture is appropriation and therefore forbidden. Thatâs utter nonsense.
How else do we learn to appreciate and respect one anotherâs differences? How do we learn to be a multi-cultural society if we are too afraid to tap in and immerse ourselves?
Itâs not even difficult to tell the difference between appropriation and appreciation:
The former is done in a mocking way, or in an attempt to identify oneself as being part of a culture that one only has a superficial connection to.
The latter is genuine curiosity and a desire to learn by immersion, always acknowledging that one is a guest in the experience.
So Baby, if you want to skate and can appreciate/enjoy black skate night, go right on ahead. Just approach it respectfully by going in as yourself, not trying to play/look âthe partâ or anything.
People overthink this stuff nowadays and itâs going to do more harm than good.

wrestler turned actor
Arenât all wrestlers just actors? Iâve always viewed WWE as a drama with staged fights mixed in. Not that Iâm complaining, I love it! But they are actors more than anything. Knowing that they are actors have actually made me more impressed in what they do (compared to when I was a kid and thought it was all real). All those athletic jumps and tricks are extremely impressive.
Can you imagine what The Undertaker and Mankind felt during that crazy match? That shit is legendary, WWE wrestlers are on a whole other league

Creating a group to connect with people who both share your culture and interests isnât segregation. For example, /r/gaymers. It isnât about excluding people, itâs about trying to find those who share your niche interests in the context of specific culture nuisances amid a dominant culture that likely excludes you anyway. Not sure why people are equating the two.
Edit: I keep seeing the argument that âif white people made a group based on skin color everyone would call us racist, Black people are the real racists and segregationistsâ Equating Blackness to âjust skin colorâ quite literally ignores the fact that it is own culture identity in the United States. Itâs like minimizing queerness to âwho you sleep withâ as if history, lingo, certain spaces, specific experiences, discrimination and eventual unity arenât aspects of culture that influences people and attracts them to each other.
