Cambridge students cancel theme party over 'cultural appropriation' fears

It is a shameless breach of the Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights. This is pretty much a space where you can't express your views if they are unpopular and a place to go for defective people to try to get away from reality.

There are so many genuinely important things you can get upset about rather than looking for excuses to get annoyed about SJWs...

If it's a breach of human rights,why do university campuses have them?

on Twitter.

Number one on the things that don't matter.

If it's a breach of human rights,why do university campuses have them?

Because it's not really a breach of Human Rights.

2. The exercise of these freedoms, since it carries with it duties and responsibilities, may be subject to such formalities, conditions, restrictions or penalties as are prescribed by law and are necessary in a democratic society, in the interests of national security, territorial integrity or public safety, for the prevention of disorder or crime, for the protection of health or morals, for the protection of the reputation or rights of others, for preventing the disclosure of information received in confidence, or for maintaining the authority and impartiality of the judiciary.

So basically article 10 declares freedom of expression in part 1 and swiftly kills it off in part 2.

And those people are morons, unfortunately Twitter allows their opinions to heard worldwide.

Cultural appropriation is a stupid term as nobody owns culture, most cultures are amalgamations of other cultures taking a bit of this and a bit of that to make a new culture. To say that someone is stealing a culture or using it in appropriately is retarded. Culture is there to be shared and changed. If you don't like it, go and live as hermit clinging to your precious culture, or it that appropriating hermit culture?

So,what do people do in a safe space? Do all British unis have a safe space?

But these activists don't see it that way. All they see is somebody,who has little knowledge about their particular culture,trying to mock it or gain popularity and being praised for it by dressing a certain type of way.

I am genuinely hurt by Islam and the Koran. Should we ban them?

I'm genuinely interested in attending a safe space and talking to the students. I feel like cultural appropriation is a big issue that's being discussed a lot in the media,on our university campuses etc. So,it would be interesting to hear peoples thoughts
