When did it stop being cool to humiliate the people you defeated? Time was you exterminated a rival tribe, you'd drink from the skulls of their ancestors and use their temples as public bathrooms. Now we can't even dress up as Ninja Turtles for Halloween without someone bleating that we've appropriated Japanese culture.

blame that multiculturalist Cyrus The Great, he took idols to a central temple system to imply both subjugation of as well as respect for the foreign deities, and its really all been downhill since then

as a hawaiian idgaf about tiki bars etc, but as it turns out rich and powerful people only care about us when it suits them but they tell us to go gently caress ourselves when they're in a position to do something that would actually help us at little to no expense to themselves

like five, six years ago i was a lot more on board with the whole liberal social justice thing because it was a lot more acceptable to make dumb racist jokes and tell women to get back to the kitchen and boy i dont even give that much of a poo poo but it was getting old. it seems to have gone out of control a little bit and yet 'PC out of control" is literally what all of those shitlers were complaining about. like i am okay with the fact that 'faggy' is no longer an acceptable replacement for 'lovely' but also i should still be able to use the word human being in context of a bundle of sticks even if it does make people uncomfortable

most of it operates completely under the fallacy that morality is determined by how hard you yell while trying to disingenuously convince people that there is mass outcry. like its not just a fallacy of the people its a fallacy of the people where there actually isnt even 'the people' just a buzfeed writer and like four people's angry tweets

theres only so many times you can have people get mad at you for something that is without a doubt not important to them nor particularly offensive before the entire thing just seems culty and retarded

1. I really want a Pina Colada right now. Thanks.

2. I don't care either way. If Maoris and Samoans and other Pacific Islanders voice a problem it's not like I'll miss Tiki bars. If not then whatever it's not like I care about Tiki Bars.

My cousin is like a quarter native Hawaiian but he is super into being proud about it and when the family all went to Disney world for vacation one year he got crazy upset at the Tiki room not because he found the attraction itself offensive but because the animatronic parrot called Hawaiians 'a bunch of Polynesian pineapple suckers'. It was hilarious he actually yelled at the robot parrot like it would respond and security or whatever came in and escorted him out.

I don't have much of an opinion about tiki bars but I do like drinks served in a gaudy ridiculous glasses so I think i'm pro-tiki.

"What you're looking at — the carvings are either representations of gods, or they're representations of ancestors," he says. "So if we were to put that into a context that Americans would understand, it would be like going into a Christian-themed bar" with drinks served in glasses shaped like the Virgin Mary.

Those exist, Japan and China have a bunch of kitschy christian-themed bars and restaurants.

It's the most patronizing thing ever. "We need to be stalwart defenders of those noble savages!" It's like they view minorities to be children or something instead of full human beings with their own agency. I think that's way more disgusting and offensive than a tiki bar.

Or a hula dancer bobblehead on someone's dashboard.

My mother laid an embryo in a mans esophagus and I hatched after his ship touched back down on earth. I was somewhere in Europe and they had these things called "Giger Bars". Now, as a carnivorous insectoid you can see how I might be offended.
