Laughing @ all the white ppl calling Met Gala theme “cultural appropriation.”
To appropriate, a dominant culture takes from a marginalized culture. Not happening here. In fact, Catholics FORCED their religion on Black/brown ppl all over the world - it’s called colonialism.

Let's be careful not to say "all the white people" ~ because ALL WHITE PEOPLE aren't responsible for the racial mess that is always forefront in America. You'd be quick to pounce if someone said "all the black people" and would find it equally as insensitive. Atheist here...

Hell, Catholics forced their religions even on other whites. They're the reason we know jack shit about just about any Western European pagan religions; Catholicism suffers no rivals.

By your logic, it would be. Catholics, especially Christians, are marginalized, even killed, every day for their faith in some parts of the world (over 50 nations). Despite the race which you inaccurately associate Christianity with, its disrespectful.

I was brought up Catholic and honestly, I knew this would get certain reactions but there’s no way you can appropriate the dominant culture 🙄
