Sombreros are racist unless one submits to a blood test establishing proper mestizaje between Iberian and Mixtec/Nahua/Maya blood. I, for one, am delighted that the University of East Anglia has its priorities straight. [W]e know that when it comes to cultural appropriation the issues can sometimes be difficult to understand and many don’t realise that they may be about to cause offence or break a policy. Because racism isn't about intent, it's about appearance.

This is why White Pride rallies are going to come back. EDIT: Nope, because we're already banning White heritage in America so I guess the only proper genocide is a white genocide.

I'm glad that people have realized that cultural appropriation is problematic and are making moves to support cultural segregation instead.

Funny, the article appears to have nothing to do with the OP?quote:Union officials pointed to a key advertising policy sent to all stallholders before the freshers’ fair that bans potentially racist imagery. It reads: “Discriminatory or stereotypical language or imagery aimed towards to any group or individual based on (discriminatory) characteristics will not be permitted as part of our advertising.”

Considering advertisement sombreros to be culturally appropriated racist tools of oppression will surely protect the completely oppressed UK Mexican minority that definitely exists in the way student union occifers imagine and there exists no country in which Mexican culture isn't oppressed. i.e. it's still dumb even if you think the OP is dumb, too also lol at the well-known bastion of journalistic integrity and factual accuracy The Tab being cited as a source (in this case the thing actually happened though)

There has been a cultural appropriation thread previously, and posters who shall not be named advocated policies which would effectively segregate all cultures that are deemed to be of insufficiently similar oppression level to preserve their purity of essence or something.

In Seriously, China and to a lesser extent other South East Asian countries are chock full of mindless aping of ~western~ cultural things, ranging from intentionally similar knockoff products to skin whitening cream for beautiful women () to whole fake castles and cities, which would be totally offensive if you did it here. Look at this poo poo.
