Culture appropriation

[BenThere]

I'm a fool for cultural exuberance; I'm sorry. Hope some can see the good in this.

Dude, I want to appropriate Okie humour...

A sad, PC story, about this kind of ***** about assimilating other people's cultures, what with me having German, Russian, Irish (dig the alcohol), Norwegian forebears...

Christ, the USA wouldn't be as great (Ben excluded) without cultural appropriation. **** me, they were all fecking each other...

I am going to assimilate the blues again (black men dig) and Okie and Arkies here...

Every culture has a right to their own music, stories, movies, cuisine, etc I'm actually somewhat regretful that US culture imposes itself as aggressively as it does. I agree, we're too sexy for our hat.

The world should find another icon.

But there is **** all wrong with American culture. Personally I love the American dream, as it sums up the Micks, the Spics, the Spades, the Wops, the Wetbacks, the Wasps and all the other ***** as well! Even the Jews man!

I mean it man. It deserves to do well, and I wish it well because at heart it is inclusive. Your Scottish, German knob lover excluded.

By the way, what is your background? You are clearly not native American?

Cultural appropriation is yet another steaming pile of manure shoveled up by the politically correct.

Does liking Curries and Chinese food stereotype me? May I add Mexican, Indonesian, African food to name but a few.....mind you, you can 'stick' Kæstur hákarl

I had never heard of 'CA' until today, but now I am seriously concerned and regret not paying more attention to 8/9 October.

I can see this turning into a youtube thread, where we all extol the music we like. I ask your indulgence for one more vid. I love the classic bluegrass song that is the focus, but I love the technical banjo artistry and general homespun vibe. If you hang around the site after the first Rockytop performance, you get a banjo lesson. It's real red-neck music and everyone can benefit from that. If you struggle with your ligature, you'll marvel at this, I think. Banjo ain't easy. Note also he seldom strays from the low frets.
