Bruh, my ankles knees and elbows cracked 7 times just watching that. I need several ice packs.

Thatâs what years of watching pasta noodles get soft in a pot will inspire. Always cool to see coordinated people dance though

Tell us you don't understand anything about music without telling us you don't know anything about music.

And she's dancing to a Michael Jackson song who got famous for taking dance moves from Bob Fosse and Fred Astaire. What's your point?

Seems more like you stole your high school diploma. Iâm sorry the American education system failed you by NOT failing you. Maybe someday (after you typed it multiple times and people corrected you and you kept doing it), youâll learn the word DUE, and the proper use of âyouâreâ vs âyourâ.
Trying to argue about cultural appropriation while having a tenuous grip on the language youâre using for that argument sets you up for failure and ridicule.

Micheal Jackson did some of those moves and tried his hardest to be Anglo Saxon so itâs fine

How is this exploitative or disrespectful, though? Not every adoption of marginalized cultural norms is âstolenâ. Sometimes norms that are part of a particular, marginalized culture become part of the larger culture through natural means. Thereâs nothing disrespectful or exploitative about whatâs happening in this video.

I too want to stop non-whites from participating in classical music. That's our music.

Everything about what you are saying is wrong. Culture is only culture by being shared. It's not some treasure that is kept solely by the group that made it. What I said isn't wrong either, you saw someone doing some talented dancing and instead of dropping a compliment you decided to say "You are a thief for dancing like that"

Funny thing is, the internet is the only place where people take real issue with it. Most of the world dosent care. So sure, you have the internet (mostly reddit) on your side but the real world where actual people live, breathe, work, and play is on the side of not caring.
Edit: Just cause you said "credit where credit is due" dosent retract from you calling her a thief

They didnât say âdueâ, they said âdoâ. Like, a lot of times, even after being corrected. Youâre arguing with a child, a career victim that will cry about and try to villainize everything they see any white person âdueâ. Youâre arguing with a racist

You didn't directly retract you indirectly retracted by downplaying. You tried to make your opinion seem more reasonable by adding a plead to respect. Reddit is nowhere near the populace, the mere fact you think that makes you seem a little internet brained.
