It's not cultural sharing now, it's appropriation. See also the endless monologues about dreadlocks.

Remember that twitter isn't real life. For every college freshmen tweeting about the sushi counter being cultural appropriation, 98% of people disagree.

Just because someone is loud and inflammatory does not mean their views are widely held.

Unfortunately, it isn't confined to Twitter. Now a family friend is giving her kid crap over wanting dreads.
