The people who scream about 'cultural appropriation'

and other such idiocies need to apologize to the trees that provide the oxygen they breathe.

And then stop breathing.
Kali Wilgus and Liz “LC” Connelly, owners of Portland pop-up shop Kooks Burritos, just wanted to make and sell some really great burritos. So when they were on a trip to Puerto Nuevo, Mexico, they “picked the brains” of the local tortilla ladies and brought those recipes back to the States.
...
Whelp, apparently this interview sparked an Internet shitstorm, which ended in Kooks Burritos shutting down and the two white women who owned it scrubbing social media of the business’ existence.

Wilgus and Connelly were accused of cultural appropriation by the Internet mob, and even the theft of PoC’s recipes.
Because making tasty burritos in fucking Portland somehow harms people in Mexico.

So, people of color are limited to wearing grass skirts and loin clothes because of cultural appropriation?

Oh...I see...it was two "white" women!!! That explains it now. So even the sacred ground of womanhood is being attacked by the PC police.
So, riddle me this Batman....what hasn't the white population appropriated!?!?!?
