I just saw that Am I The Asshole reddit thread where the white girl started going to a black salon because she had extremely curly hair and the black salon was the only one that didn't massacre it. Her white friends straight up gaslit her into believe she was engaging in cultural appropriation and stealing resources from black people. WILD 💀​

@malwaretech people with just half an understanding of a problem can get it so much more wrong than the totally ignorant would

@malwaretech A lot of society's problems are ultimately due to the overapplication of perfectly valid concepts to totally invalid contexts.

@malwaretech yikes. "White people shouldn't buy services from black businesses" isn't the anti-racist statement you might think.

@ftp_alun when you go so woke you come full circle back to enforcing segregation

@malwaretech Wha?!? Giving business to a Black salon because they provide a valuable service and specific knowledge about how to care for your type of hair is appropriation? What sort of bananas justification is this! So long as you tip well and aren't a racist jackass, I'm sure every Black stylist and barber is just fine with white customers.
