You know what cultural appropriation has in common with the unicorn?

Neither of them exist.

The worst part about this article is reminding us he was in a terrible Fantastic Four movie.

This is crazy. I thought "cultural appropriation" was an excuse to vilify White people. But now people are calling for the cancellation of a Black man because he appropriated someone else's culture? Get the fuck outta here.

People expand their horizons by adopting the foods, clothing, and music of other cultures. It's part of how we grow and adapt. If these idiots saw a fish crawling out of the water, they'd say it was appropriating amphibian culture and prevent it from evolving.

Adopting is one thing. Trademarking and making money off a culture that probably won't be seeing any money from it is another thing entirely.

Cultural appropriation is the stupidest shit ever. Pisses me off honestly. But I can see why peopel would be pissed in this specific situation. Though the article does touch up on the fact he would need the rights to the name. But he shouldnt be cancelled over it lol he probably thought it was a cool name and he knows people party to it. But he is clearly trying to take advantage of a name that shouldn't be his anyways.

Seems more tacky than cancel worthy. It'd be like Liam Neeson making an Irish Whisky and calling it Juneteenth. Like it's definitely in poor taste.

After reading the article I kind of agree with the complaints. He should change the name out of respect.

They probably didn't list it because he's a villain in that movie.

This exactly. Those complaints about the high school girl who wore a qipao to prom were stupid. This is a legitimate grievance. It's also highly probable to obscure the cultural origins of the word and destroy the culture in the process by redefining it.
