Not at all. The article was simply too long. A parable should not run five pages.

“cultural appropriation” has to be the single stupidest Leftist trope there is. Its all appropriation. Everybody steals everybody else’s good ideas. They’d be complete fools not to.

How about Whoopi Goldberg appropriated a Jewish name.

“No way it’s a true story.”

Of course it’s not true, but it’s entertaining. If some pissy little SJW happens to read it, they might get a clue as to how ridiculous cultural appropriation is.

It reminds me a little of what my brother-in-law said to his teenage nieces when they visited. They were looking for the “other” trash can. You know which one.

The oldest asked, “Don’t you recycle?!”

He replied, “I drive a Hummer. What do you think?” (It was funny at the time.)
