They do anything for some likes...

"Use cultural appropriation to gain likes and followers in your second-hand blog,
that is to fall really low, very low."

There is no such thing as cultural appropriation, there are only people looking for excuses to promote more hatred in a world that has decided to change in favor of becoming more diverse, more complex and increasingly integrated.

The correct definition of culture is "the set of own elements by which an ethnic or social group is identified, such elements may be of a geographical, social, or religious nature, and may result in a constitution of languages, symbols, traditions, and forms of acting or dressing. "

Beyond the way of dressing and speaking, the music and folklore that characterizes each people, culture can include all kinds of elements that represent the essence of a group, especially an ethnic group, such as the symbolisms used in traditional clothing Mexican or African, characteristic hairstyles used by different races and specific groups, or tribal makeup used during religious ceremonies of different ethnic groups from Asia and Eastern Europe.

"Culture is the social fusion of different elements (ethnics, spiritual and socials) of a race,
and this cannot, and should not be, under any reason be immobile or permanent."

The culture that represents a town always results in a fusion of elements that symbolize for them historical or geographical characteristics of each one (such as Mexican ornamental drawings evoking animal figures). And the culture is not and has never been something immobile or permanent, the culture is changing, especially when we refer to religious and ethnic cults, it is quite difficult (if not impossible), because most of the ethnic peoples and Indigenous races adopted the culture, language and elements of other indigenous, ethnic and territorial groups once they conquered them after some war, as is the case of the Turks, the Kurds, the Waori Indians of Venezuela or the Kariba and the Pemones in the surroundings of the Amazon, and many others.

Therefore, this new trend to which everyone joins about 'betting on cultural appropriation' with the only reason to win some likes on their social networks and extra views on their blogs, is not only to abuse the same thing they criticize (someone making money at the expense of someone else's culture), but also putting a social wall and a racial border to those groups and societies that are beginning to integrate freely by adopting certain elements of other cultures.

All this without mentioning that 'Interculturalism' helps to greatly promote the values ​​and elements of other cultures around the world that are disappearing, and opposing this cultural exchange only limits our own societies to integrate with each other and evolve collectively under the excuse of "that culture does not belong to you "when many of us are (whether we like it or not) the result of a racial, social, ethnic and linguistic mix, and refusing to socially promote the support of other cultures would only lead us to deny our origins, our past and of our cultural essence.
