Cultural appropriation

An excuse to bully somebody for expressing themselves.
Cultural appropriation is not a real term or a problem. Stop bullying others.

cultural appropriation!

A one sided view which tries to hide the fact that the European white races invented just about everything that is of any use in the home or industry, all of which are readily available to and are used by black and brown people, but it is wrong to put a slice of Pineapple on a pizza and call it Hawaiian. This is a particularly hot topic amongst white hating white people that have been indoctrinated by left wing school or college teachers and have not gained any World experience yet.
A non PC use of cultural appropriation! would be; "Hey look, there is Beyonce with her lovely long, straight, blonde hair". Or "Look Leroy is using a knife and fork and wearing clothes".

cultural avpropriation

When your online avatar (av) contains elements from a culture other than your own
It has been alleged that your av is eating a taco but you're Cuban, not Mexican. The only things your online persona is allowed to do are smoke a cigar, drink a mojito, eat a ham sandwich with pickles, or listen to the "Havana ooh-na-na" song. I hereby find you guilty of the heinous crime of cultural avpropriation and sentence you to 50 years in federal pound-me-in-the-ass prison.
