It hasn't. You don't see Irish people getting mad when their culture is appropriated into a drinking holiday.

You don't see Christian people mad when their culture is appropriated into a Santa Claus and an Easter Bunny. [/quote[

That is less appropriation, and more of a long term cultural shift driven by consumerism.

"Cultural appropriation" is a key word for segregation, a shield against criticism or expansion, and a hipster way of "keepin mah culture mine!".


No, and this just shows your complete lack of understanding on the subject. Being against cultural appropriation isn't holding up cultural beliefs as a sacred cow. Cultures should be critiqued and analyzed. However, viewing an appropriated culture as no different from a genuine culture is basically using a strawman version of an argument.


You don't own your culture. So you don't get to decide who follows it, who can talk about it, and who can adopt or change it.


Ultimately no. However, people who actively misrepresent a culture should be scrutinized, especially by the culture being misrepresented.


Get off your high horse.


What? Okay, so I'm guessing at some point you started thinking that I'm trying to preserve my culture or something? Not really sure you you did it if you did, but okay...

Guess I should say something about frank...
I'm too lazy to see if this has been said yet but can we take a moment to realize He used the rise of anime in pop culture and the ironic self hate that was becoming popular at the time to make himself famous. Pretty fucking genius.

Cultural appropriation is an interesting discussion, so I'll be glad to have it.

Frank is also a big internet figure so talking about him, what ideas he represents is fun too.

I really don't understand the ethical problems with cultural appropriation besides 'this dude made fun of my ancestor's beliefs'.


You mean other than leading to a warped, and often negative view of a culture?


Maybe because no one proved how culture is such a sacred thing that it must not be doubted or questioned.


Nor am I saying that culture should not be challenged.


Does cultural appropriation always leads to a negative, warped view of a culture? Is segregation going to lead to a more accurate view? How?

People who buy katanas are not weebs.There are people who practice kendo or other kinds of martial arts you know.If you buy a katana and you don't know anything about how swords function in real life then you're a weeb.

''Weeaboos degrade us anime fans, like who the heck masturbates to a body pillow? Or buy Katana or stuffs?''

I have to agree with you at the first part, but what's wrong with buying a katana? People spend their money on what they want, those are their money, not yours.

''I mean there's a limit to how obsessed you can be about anime or Japan. ''

Not particullary. I can be pretty obsessed. I'm talking about myself particullary, not in general.

''Weeaboos waste their life watching anime all day, dressing like anime characters and getting fat and unhygienic.''

Why do you think all weeaboos are fat and unhygienic? I mean, I have just 60 kg and I take a shower everyday, and I can't stand to think myself as a dirty person, I do all I can to clean myself all the time. I could say I'm obsessed with being clean. If people want to waste their life watching anime, it's their choice and none of your business.

''They think they can learn Japanese by just watching anime and they act like Japanese (even though they are not)''

So? What's the problem here? Everybody acts how they want. And I did learn japanese by watching anime, but I also begun to study it.

''They can't get a job or a girlfriend. Their life is pretty pathetic if you ask me.''

Really? And if a girl is weeaboo, she need a girlfriend too? Not a boyfriend if she is straight? I particularry don't want any relationship because humans are shit. Rotten humans till the core.
Pretty pathetic? Oh please, give me a break, and how life can be not pathetic? If you have such an awesome life, please tell me about it.

''I mean I like anime and I don't watch anything other than that. I also have a favourite waifu "Emilia-tan" but my room is pretty normal. It's not filled with useless anime or Japanese things.''

Rem best waifu ever. That's the only thing I want to say here.

''So what do you guys think about him?''

Who? That freak? I just need to see his face to figure out that he needs to go to a doctor.

''Is he right?''

I didn't even bother myself to try to watch the video. I fell it would be too cringy.
