What does everyone think about the new Mario game where he openly appropriates the rich heritage of Mexican head ware? Does it count as appropriation if he's Italian? Explain.
>>
they are both sub groups of caucasians
>>
>>129813321

So this doesn't count then?

What's up with all the shill threads today?

I'm genuinely worried about the future of Mario and what might happen if Nintendo is perceived as culturally insensitive.

>>129813775
Should blacks stop using english and dressing up with anything else than war paint and coconut leaves around the genitals? They're culturally appropriating white culture.
>>
>>129814413
Its all small and vocal minority who think like that and they only really exist in the west, I think Mario will be fine
>>129814513
I didn't mention cultural appropriation
>>
>>129814413
Who gives a fuck about cultural sensitivity?
People will play it regardless of it's cultural appropriation.
>>
>>129813161
It's okay when Ubisoft does it but it's bad when Nintendo does it? I don't get it.

Holy shit that looks great, got a link to the conference?

how exactly does a fictitious italian plumber appropriate any culture? isn't it appropriation for a japanese company to make some caricature of a new york italian guy? why is the problem with the mexican stuff? is this some kind of meta-appropriation, where we're supposed to accept the premise of mario's fictitious national and cultural identity as the benchmark, and that any cultural representation imposed on mario beyond that benchmark is now appropriation?

why aren't these idiots mad about him being portrayed as a stereotype of italians???
>>
>>129813161
Culture isn't something that you try to keep other people from taking. It's the opposite, culture seeks to expand.

If we were set as a rule people could not interact with the cultures of others than non-whites would not be allowed to read or write English. Even worst they would not be allowed to THINK in English. To even attempt to pose a counter-arguement in English is to forfeit the idea that culture is something you 'own' rather than something you 'share'.

Kek, just watched the trailer.
It's a literal ape and a nigger working together and fighting cops.
To top it off, they're constantly swearing like a bunch of ghetto niggers. How the fuck is this BGE?

Libfaggots never acknowledge the cultural appropriation when a nigger is using a computer or a spic is celebrating St. Patrick's Day or a kike is assuming a position of power in a white nation or a chink is speaking English. No, "cultural appropriation" is a sin of which only whitey can be guilty. For muds, they have a right to take anything they want to take.

The first game involved an asian woman named "Jade". That's already fucking cheesy. It was always about playing with dumb steriotypes.

And as an American, I love seeing other countries doing Murikan shit. Eating burger/bbq, wearing goofy cowboy hats, shootan guns. Culture is something we should share.
