he still does that bullshit where he makes other people open keycard doors for him and pay for hotel rooms because it's okay if he's forcing other people to give up their PII and use nonfree systems for his benefit, as long as he personally isn't affected he's a giant gross hypocrite and he deserves to be cancelled

Fortaleza posted:lol for real? he would routinely prop open the door to the office building where he was squatting so that he didn't have to use a keycard to get in. when the boston bombers were on the loose in the area he apparently became very irate because the campus was locked down and people refused to let him leave the doors open quote:I am looking for a room in a shared house or apartment as an interim place where I could stay for at least two months. Ideally I would have the option of staying for up to six months, but I could do without that.

echinopsis posted:is it offensive? from a food pov maybe joking aside cultural appropriation doesn't necessarily mean that the end product is offensive outside of the appropriation. food is iffy, though, imo it's mostly a problem when you see a person or business from outside of the relevant food culture try and present themselves as an authority and benefit economically without any ties to the originating culture

cultural appropriation is well understood by an example: if you're a white hipster running a higher-end mexican restaurant in direct competition with a mexican-run food truck down the street it is tacky as hell to go on about how authentic and genuine your stuff is, and how you use the correct hard-to-get chilis that "some other" places don't have. the name we give that specific kind of tackiness is cultural appropriation.
