The reason feelings of cultural appropriation exist is because the children of immigrants feel like society treats them as foreigners because they're not white, despite growing up all their lives in the US/UK etc. This leads to feeling like some dipshit is enjoying the food and fashion of your home culture while rejecting it's people. Think about a Maga moron voting to kick out all the Mexicans while wearing a sombrero and eating tacos; it's a hypocrisy of culture vs race.

Better that they know about it at 6 than grow up feeling like they're broken inside and end up taking their own life at 16.
Yeah, not that it's a bad curry sauce recipe (I don't think it's a great one though - that's pretty western butter chicken style curry, especially with keens powder and not a traditional garam masala), but that's not going to taste like Japanese curry at all. You're better off getting some java/Vermont/kokumaru brand curry roux cubes and just adding some finely diced pork, sauted onion, cubed potato and carrot, and chicken stock to it. The typical Japanese curry is about 2 cups of the curry sauce to that amount of chicken/rice. Also, get rid of the broccoli and instead go with some shredded cabbage.
Just one cookbook is a great resource for Japanese recipes, although your katsu could be improved with bigger flaked panko crumbs instead of the finer style breadcrumbs.
I grew up in a small town. Things were hard. We needed to make little jokes. I learned to make my car a little funny. I’m sorry if I sent the wrong message, like I was some sort of representative or something.
Sonos is the apple of speakers: great hardware, but overpriced and a walled garden.
I'm confused about the single full stop. It shows they have knowledge of basic punctuation, but refuse to use it.
You're splitting hairs here for the sake of winning an argument. There's no practical difference between cruelty and torture to the people suffering it. "Oh and don't worry about it, because it's only hundreds, not thousands in this particular ~~torture~~ cruelty facility".
And as far as genocide goes, you're moving the goal posts here, but if we're playing that game, the native Americans might have something to say about that.
I mean, going back to the original argument here, my overarching point is really that people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones and the US's track record of authoritarianism and human rights abuses is comparable enough to make them just as untrustworthy at the most and certainly not in any position to criticise a state who is trying to manage billions of people at the least.
Did you just try "U mad bro?". What are you, 10 years old? That was probably your only takeaway because you have the reading comprehension of a 10 year old.
People aren't tortured with an iron maiden, but when you have conditions like under trump in 2020, and the suicide rate in ice detention jumped 11 times higher than the previous 10 year average, I don't think you can suggest ice detention is that far away from concentration camps.
Also, Gitmo isn't for enemy combatants - they can chuck anyone suspected of terrorism in there, even US citizens. It most definitely isn't exclusively "war crimes".
Please outline how your personal political opinions about china are going to affect the fact that you have a Chinese toaster. I'll wait.
I'm not sure that's a bar you even clear, given the ice "detention centres" you set up domestically and places like abu ghraib or Gitmo you run on foreign soil. And as for criticising the government, what's the practical use if a felon and a billionaire can rig your election without any repercussions anyway?
"I can call trump a criminal online, that's freedom right there!"
"Will he actually be arrested?"
"Well no, but it feels good to say it"

I'm telling you how people feel, I'm not writing a manual towards a post race society. When people feel ostracised because they look Mexican, they get salty about the same society who routinely rejected them and made them feel like outsiders gleefully housing down Mexican food and cosplaying at being Mexican.
