people’s choices to empathize with a specific cultural group that they or their ancestors may belong to that is also a victim of exploitation and prejudice. But I can’t take you seriously when you call me an “ignorant fuck” - When in fact your blatant display of ignorance is that of somebody who hasn’t actually experienced that grief on a first-hand basis. If you collect any type of compensation because of suffering that your ancestors experienced and you are living a fully comfortable life today, I, who also have ancestors that experienced similar suffering LONG ago, will not take you seriously. Ever. So don’t message me on Etsy correcting me for my conscious use of terminology which is wrongly coined by corporate companies, Tumblr, and everywhere else as well. Capitalism reigns supreme and there’s a very real understanding to the tribe names people are using and their effectiveness on the public due to “kitschy” trends. Respect your tradition but also educate yourself enough to know that the rest of the world may not. Especially if it involves business and finance. That’s all.
