If you’re uninterested, feel free to scroll on. One message reads:
wow racist much? she cant appreciate mexican culture because shes white? holy shit…
and the other reads:
I think it’s very uneducated of you to assume that every non Mexican participating in Mexican festivities is doing so…
If you are interested in my culture, I welcome you. But you don’t get to take it. You don’t get to use it as your plaything. It is not your toy. You are the one who is not entitled to anything here. If I am entitled, that is because it is mine. This is my family. These are our people. This is our culture. Our way of honoring the dead.
Deutschland den Deutschen?
You know, this is exactly like Nazi germany
except minus the part about purging other races for the sake of some fucked up ideas about white racial purity, the mass genocide of gays/jews/the disabled/gypsies, and Hitler - yes, asking people to not wear Calavera skull makeup on Halloween because it’s not part of Halloween, and is disrespectful and it’s not up for “adaption” by white people for their own shits and giggles…
THIS IS EXACTLY LIKE THAT.



Who died and made you Queen of the Mexicans? You’re not a Mexican. And yet you impose your values on their culture? And then you give me shit because I don’t care what you think? I’ve yet to read from any actual Mexicans who are offended. I’m not the one here who’s making generalizations about a culture I’m not even part of. You are. At first I thought this clusterfuck was from people who were just hyper after starting their social studies. But now I’m thinking you’re all too ignorant and immature. APPROPRIATION IS NOT OK! Wait, what? Are you crazy? Find me anything on this planet that wasn’t appropriated. I’m not even sure you understand what’s a culture. You know that girl who made the original comic says he favorite movie is The Lion King? The biggest plagiarism of Disney. I mean common, how am I supposed to take this seriously. You’re so sure that you’re different that you have absolutely no self-consciousness about what you’re writing. Here’s some homework for you. Read about the different point of views of Mexicans about La Malinche. And realize how things are much more complicated than they are in your little black and white isolationist universe.
I…
You want to know who died and made me queen of the Mexicans?
Frida Khalo.
I am now Queen of Mexico.
#I am actually mexican it says so on my blog
#You used godwin’s law everything from here on out is invalid
#my age has nothing to do with anything
#La Malinche has aboso-fucking-lutely nothing to do with little white girls wanting to use calavera catalina dress as halloween costumes
#Why the fuck do people keep bringing up The Lion King
#What does this have to do with anything.
#Cultural appropriation used while being an asshole to people is not okay -BUT THE LION KING!!!111
#not “a” mexican. because mexicans are things
#someone told me to grown the fuck up

#how does one “grown the fuck up”
