Saw he was trending on twitter so I clicked to see what's good and he is getting destroyed for appropriating black culture. But, I thought he was black? Or at least mostly? It's a classic example of the left being so rabid that they eventually start feasting on each other for not being left enough.

How does appropriation work exactly?


Are minorities appropriating white culture when they use things like electricity, or plastic, or the internal combustion engine?

Did Beyoncé appropriate white hair and noses?

I think you can only appropriate if you're white. So I'm confused as to how Bruno is appropriating.

He's successful, popular, and wealthy. Of course he will be hated by some who are none of those things.

according to wiki his father is 1/2 Puerto Rican and 1/2 Ashkenazi Jew. Mother is mostly Phillipino with some Spanish. He was born and raised in Hawaii.

I literally feel dumber for reading that crap.

Also, didn't realize you had to have ultra dark skin to be black. News to me.

Not too dark though. If you are REALLY dark, they will call you crispy.

The left slowly feeding on their own. Give them an inch and you get new extremists that are a yard past that and pushing for more

So that's what crispy means.

Sort of way past bright.

Bruno Mars is wiping his tears with hundred dollar bills after reading that while he puts his glass of vintage Dom Perignon on a 24-carat diamond studded coaster. Dude is more talented than 99% of the clowns out there on pop radio.

Yep, and while I don't necessarily agree with some of the points made, I do think the fact that people think it's black is their issue

Ironically, the personality that started this is a black woman with the handle Sensei Aishitemasu. I bet Ken Watanabe is so pissed at her appropriation

But not too light either, or high yella.

simply googling and reading a wiki page before posting is a good rule of thumb.

Hint: he isn't black. 0%. There truly are some ignoramus's on this board. Good lord.
