All my family are Fox News types who claim to be libertarians but are really just neo-cons with delusions of grandeur who make any political discussion into a completely miserable and aggressive ****fest. So I just kind of sit back and let them make assassination jokes about Obama and eat their turkey. No idea what a family meal with sane people would be like. I probably wouldn't be there either TBH.

I have one person in my immediate family, so the holidays are actually really awesome. We just make a ton of food, eat it for a week, and enjoy each other's company. At Christmas we buy each other dozens of gifts and that's kind of it.

It's nice in theory to have a big family, but in practice it's just a bunch of Irish Catholics who are uncomfortable with shows of affection watching football for four hours and then scattering like cockroaches once dinner is over.

It's a discussion over human rights. Anything else is kind of irrelevant even if it's an issue for retain people. Achieve equal rights for men first.

Why men? We've historically had a bigger leg up than women.

You don't see a problem with cultural appropriation?

Can you honestly look at a weaboo with a straight face?

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

The argument started because at her school (she's an elementary school teacher) they had a vote for a mascot. I can't remember the finalists, but one of the options was "the Warriors" which was then scrapped because apparently that makes me people think of Indians which in turn is culutural appropriation. She actually tried to draw a comparison from this to wearing black face.

With that being said,

I think not wearing black face comes down to whether or not you're a douchebag or not, it has nothing to do with "appropriating culture." I believe in complete freedom. If you want to dress up like a Native American for Halloween, go for it. If you want to sit around and watch anime all the time and cosplay in public, do ya thang bruv.
