Cultural Appropriation ~ a new one on me.

[qccfc]

We live in strange times and it’s an ever perpetual circle of people being offended by people being by people being offended etc etc etc .
People basically believe write shite on social media and then it gets multiplied.
An example of this today I’ve viewed is one of my duller aqaintamces sharing a picture of a bacon sandwich beiciae Facebook has removed it for being offensive.
It’s come from a ‘proud to be English page
Ironically the person sharing it is of mixed race from the Docks who’s not the slightest bit English.
When did people become so thick?

Not a day goes by on this message board where someone is posting about a story which is sourced by social media.

The thing is social media is targeted, it will reflect your world view, if a page you like suggest that pictures of bacon sandwiches are banned off social media then they eat it up. The fact that its nonsense doesn't occur to them.

I think the idea of offence is over rated by many, the ease and access of social media is that many people will post throw away comments, that do not reflect the true view, the media report it because it is easy and generates clicks.
