Their solution is to educate yourself and learn their culture. But how does one learn their culture? Travel to their homeland. But if I wear a panache and sombrero that’s bad. But it’s also not respecting their culture if I don’t dress like them. Imagine a woman going to the Middle East wearing a bikini. It’s the only way to avoid cultural appropriation.

Over time I realized that you're trapped as soon as you try and comply with all these crazy demands. "Educate yourself." may as well mean "Brainwash yourself." It's exhausting.

I read a book, Canceling the American Mind, and the guy described it as the Perfect Rhetorical Fortress.

Yeah you don’t take the severely mentally ill seriously when it comes to life advice. Just laugh at them and live your life.

Agreed. I learned not to play the game.
