Vgr what do you think the mean free path is now? Cause I see he same trend as Antonio. Everyone is offended all the time, and even saying this offends people.
More raw material? Why does a serious discussion of appropriation and representation preclude making fun of those same things? It’s just a creativity challenge. It is entirely possible that there can be substance to those debates and potential for humor in them.

Like I feel comfortable making the joke, “I’m going to appropriate me some tacos” at a Mexican restaurant. That’s a joke, but it doesn’t invalidate the idea of appropriation. And I wouldn’t make the joke in a context where it might trivialize a genuine appropriation concern.
