Cultural appropriation

You are not the only one who can exercise freedom of expression. Nobody appointed you to defend the "beautiful creature", who was too busy singing about "stupid boy" and yet call it "empowering" song. If Ramiro wants to point out something, who the hell are you asking them to shut up? Surely you have not watched the video to make a fair comment. 100+ Maneki-neko dolls, yet audacity to say that. Funny to see you exercising your constitutional rights per the first amendment, but want to curtail other's fundamental rights to freedom of expression.

LOL ... I am not so much defending Netta ... I am attacking Ramiro. The concept of cultural appropriation should not exist and there's nothing to point out. My telling her to "stfu" is not curtailing her freedom of speech, it's more saying her statements are complete garbage and nobody should listen to her. Have you seen her twitter? It's a never-ending stream of bitching and moaning. She is dividing people, not helping to bring together any kind of common understanding.

The funny thing is Netta and Ramiro are both obviously fourth-wave feminists. So, they should be allies, right? Well, no. The philosophy is so toxic that they will eat each other as they attack anyone and everyone with their bullshit message. I did not watch the video, but I have seen still photographs.

You've seen the video of the performance. Were you offended on behalf of the Japanese people? Was Netta oppressing them? I understand there was a Pokemon involved in this dire human tragedy.

But you did not hesitate assuming she was defending the culture.

I didn't have to assume. That's what she said she was doing. And, yes, I've read a lot more of her tweets than just the one in the article.

If I was reporting her tweets as hate-speech or some other nefarious shit, then you could say I was trying to curtail her freedom of speech. Saying "stfu" does no such thing.
