RaiderHaters Revenge 4,363 Posted July 15, 2016 I know not all the left is like this but when you hear stories like this its always from a leftist and it is driving me absolutely insane, where will it stop https://heatst.com/culture-wars/lena-dunham-agrees-sushi-is-cultural-appropriation/ Feminist celebrity Lena Dunham agrees with students at Oberlin, her alma mater, who protested the dining hall sushi as an example of racist cultural appropriation. “There are now big conversations at Oberlin, where I went to college, about cultural appropriation and whether the dining hall sushi and banh mi disrespect certain cuisines,” Dunham said in a recent interview with Food & Wine magazine. “The press reported it as, ‘How crazy are Oberlin kids?’ But to me, it was actually, ‘Right on.'” Good to know. Oberlin students made headlines last year when they complained about the dining hall cuisine, including insufficiently “authentic” ethnic dishes such as sushi, which were deemed “appropriative” and “disrespectful.” As one student wrote in The Oberlin Review: “This uninformed representation of cultural dishes has been noted by a multitude of students, many of who have expressed concern over the gross manipulation of traditional recipes.” Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baker Boy 1,704 Posted July 15, 2016 The Political Lefties feel a need to control others because they want everybody to be the same as they are. They can’t tolerate difference. They are also the most tolerant of being controlled by invasive social rules. They are responsive to fads and fashions and suppress opinions not shared by their group. This is why they mimic and flock like sheep to the Main Stream Media and knuckle under to left wing extremists. They have a natural attraction to totalitarian states Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looking forward to hearing Obama complain and cast blame at everyone but radical Islam about France, like he did with Orlando. You know, when he said "we" had to change our attitudes about LGBT people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
