i saw a post on my dash and im not going to reblog it but….

“omitting a few words that don’t belong to you”

??????????????????

words,,,, don’t belong to anyone?????

especially if its in English and you speak english???? like,,,

i understand if its one thing if you speak in certain way mockingly and use it to put other people down but if you legitimately adopted a word or phrase into your vocabulary and you use it in a way that doesn’t mock the group that it originally came from then thats not cultural appropriation….

like for gods sake its not even a deep or spiritual phrase its fucking slang if you think that people aren’t allowed to start using words and phrases that they heard someone else use and started using themselves then i dont think you understand how languages and learning work….
