    It turned out that although she looked white and her parents looked white, her extended family was actually asian. So it wasn’t even appropiation to begin with.

    Still everyone needs to chill, my fellow honkeys, please stop getting offended on behalf of others. Playing the role of the “White Savior” comes off as more bigoted than progressive.

      I saw a The Onion video where a white woman pledged to never say a word that began with the letter N. Not only the N word, all N words.

      “I was shouted down for wearing black facepaint and white lipstick, so why does Tom get to wear a kimono?”

      You, and the rest of the posters on here, completely misunderstand. I, a white guy, don’t get offended “on behalf of others” - the fact that white people have to constantly reference other cultures because we sterilized and sacrificed our own for the sake of white supremacism and “westernism” so long ago is offensive, period.
