SteamedHams 05/03/18 12:26:16 PM #12:	I don't know, I remember years back some of my friends went to a Mexican restaurant for Cinco de Mayo dressed with ponchos, sombreros and fake moustaches, which seems kind of excessive and racist to me. But I'm not sure if that is "cultural appropriation" or just a racist caricature like blackface at that point. Anyways, the whole "cultural appropriation" thing seems dumb because the people who make fun of it always pull from the most ridiculous examples, as usual, but there is probably some validity to it.
