RE: If Cultural Appropriation is Wrong, What About Technological Appropriation?

in #politics6 years ago

Culture evolves and adapts and grows as they encounter different cultures, this has been going on since the beginning of time... When I was younger I wondered about whether the practices we have now were exactly the same as they were 100 years ago... Now I believe that it's almost certainly different and it doesn't really matter. Outrage at cultural appropriation (clothing, movie roles, drinks, inconsequential trifles) is I think misguided energy better directed towards actual problems... For example the disproportionate use of lethal force by police against black men is the epitome of disrespect (not even respecting life) but I wonder how this can be fixed...
