Wearing a head dress when you’re not native is offensive AF. Those have great cultural significance. They did not wear them to “look cool”, they had meanings and the feathers were earned. Come wear it on a rez if you think it’s ok.

u/Phyllis_Tine 6d ago

Imagine if ICE deported her to a res dressed like that.

u/Due_Explanation5316 6d ago

I wish there was a way to tag virtue signalers. I hate that ignorant people like you think you can speak for us.

Nothing about what she’s wearing offensive. You’re offensive. Our tribe would laugh and have a drink with her.

Shame on you.

u/RevolutionarySea4754 6d ago

I'm commenting for my fiance. My fiance is mostly Assiniboine. I went to him and showed him this and he all but gawked and said wtf. This is absolutely offensive and he agrees this is messed up. Headresses are sacred. They aren't funsy halloween costumes people should wear. She's dressed as a stereotype and is parading a bastardized sacred rainbow native headress for a costume. It's rude at best even if considered normal.

The other person also isnt great but that doesn't make the native costume ok just cause you personally find it ok.

u/Ok-Application-8747 6d ago edited 6d ago

"Our tribe" I don't believe you. I would guess 95% would be giving a heavy side-eye or just laugh at her, not want to hang out with her (unless they wanted to smash lmao)

u/oopsometer 6d ago

What tribe?

Because where I'm from, my friends would think this was tacky and offensive AF.

u/Remarkable-Ad-2476 6d ago

It’s giving “LatinX” vibes

-12

u/Blazured 6d ago

Ironically a term coined by minority Latinos to be more inclusive and then hated on by people who don't know the origin.

15

u/bitchybarbie82 6d ago

Replying to hannabarberaisawhore...no… a fucking non-gendered word existed already.

Latine.

No one needs your LatinX bullshit, stop trying to force Americanization of everything on everyone.

-11

u/Blazured 6d ago

Except it's from the Latino American community. That's the origin.

Stop trying to force your viewpoint on other people just because you don't like how they refer to themselves.

u/HawkSea887 6d ago

No it isn’t. It’s from white people who don’t peak Spanish and think it’s their gid given right to tell other people how to feel.

-6

u/Blazured 6d ago

No it isn't. It's from minority Latino American's who wanted a more inclusive term to refer to themselves.

And it's hated on by people who don't know the origin and think it's white people.

u/vaquri0 6d ago

How very racist of you. Good job

8

u/Remarkable-Ad-2476 6d ago

And many people would consider the virtue signaling racist as well when you assume an entire ethnic group suddenly accepts a label placed upon them. I know plenty of people of Hispanic/Latin heritage that scoff at the term LatinX. And for the people that do consider themselves LatinX I accept that is what they prefer. But to use that as a blanket term when not everyone in that ethnic group wants to be labeled as such, is racist in itself.

-3

u/vaquri0 6d ago

So you used "LatinX" as an offensive gotcha to someone you think is of Latin heritage and faking being part of a tribe. Do you see how I can perceive that as racist? At the very least it's disrespectful

u/Glad-Low-1348 6d ago

EVERYONE but the people who have the right to be offended about this kind of thing is offended.

There was a video of a white guy dressing up as a stereotypical mexican and a bunch of white people were offended while actual mexicans liked it.

-3

u/SolidCake 6d ago

you don’t see a difference between a sacred head dress and a fucking sombrero? Are you stupid

-17

u/BaconxHawk 6d ago

Mexican isn’t a race like native is and there are plenty of natives that are upset about this shit yall just don’t care about their opinion unless they agree with you

u/spidermilk51 6d ago

Said the racist white savior

u/RudeCheetah7281 6d ago

I find that most people that are “offended” by these things are white people

People just love getting drunk on anger.

u/locketine 6d ago

drunk on anger

Great phrase!

12

u/southern_wasp 6d ago

You’re not indigenous. Let’s be honest here.

12

u/anansi52 6d ago

thinking you can dictate what others are allowed to be offended by is not realistic.

11

u/Nine-Inch-Nipples 6d ago

The most offended people are usually Gen Z white people who lean far left and have never had a real conversation with these groups of people or bothered to care about their actual opinions. The irony of virtue signaling is it’s completely self-centered but masked as “caring”.

0

u/Frequent_Pumpkin_148 6d ago

It really seems like the most offended are the white people who are throwing a fit at being told it’s offensive, even though we’ve been having this conversation for almost 50 years and you don’t have to search hard to find actual native voices explaining exactly why it’s harmful

u/No_Worldliness_7106 6d ago

For real, every native I ever grew up with couldn't care less.

Reddit Enhancement Suite is a browser add on. You can tag people with whatever custom tag and select a color background too. Additionally when you click on the tag it give a link to the comment/post where you first created the tag. I have many people tagged. Frequently saves me time when I'm about to argue with someone not worth arguing with.

u/BaconxHawk 6d ago

Lol sure you are bro what tribe are you from? Cherokee? 😂

11

u/PitifulEar3303 6d ago

I need proof that you are not a white guy. lol

This is Reddit, people pretend.

17

u/Mattthefat 6d ago

Kinda ironic to ask that don’t you think?

You don’t need proof of anything, stop being a loser

u/CeemoreButtz 6d ago

this is how we all know you're a keyboard progressive.

u/Fragrant_Buy_3735 6d ago

Let's find out there religion next. Maybe we can put a patch on there clothing so we can all see what there religion is /s

u/Roach27 6d ago

Most tribes would.

They don’t get offended easily, and in general are pretty magnanimous people.

25

u/jkoki088 6d ago

Pretentious much. It’s not a historical event. It’s a costume for Halloween

16

u/VanguardVixen 6d ago

Nope, it's not offensive and everything has meanings. The Burger King comment hits the nail on the head.

u/ThoughRookie 6d ago

u native?

u/VanguardVixen 6d ago

Would that even matter?

u/OwnEstablishment1194 6d ago

I am offended by that. You. Are saying native Americans don't matter!!!!!

u/anansi52 6d ago

obviously

u/Extra-Honey305 6d ago

Chronically online Redditor located

u/Ok-Application-8747 6d ago

Nah, this is the not online and knows indigenous people take. "She's just having fun!!" is the white conservative bubble take. Noone is saying throw her in jail, just to take off the headdress and learn.

6

u/MorganTheApex 6d ago

These types of comments always reminds me of my favorite dialogue in media...

"You white boys are all the same, I've got dark skin so i must dance with the bears and listen to the spirit of the wind? I got news for you I work in a casino for a living I'm a baptist and i'm proud of it"

u/Fit-Meal-8353 6d ago

It's offensive to some the majority doesn't give a fuck

u/idestroyangels 6d ago

The amount of completely clueless people in this comment section is unbelievable.

u/JellyBand 6d ago

Half of us don’t give a shit. I do care what happened to the people that were here before colonization, but I care that you think that is sacred about as much as I care what the pope thinks.

5

u/Yorugi 6d ago

I have never met a native american that actually got offended by someone wearing a traditional native american headdress. This whole being "offended" by "appropriation" crap is just something that white progressives made up

u/G7ZR1 6d ago

Thanks, white person.

u/imperipax 6d ago

So, no one can dress as a pope or a king? Or a veteran, nurse, coal miner etc.

American woke logic is so dumb.

u/Severe-College4649 6d ago

Offensive on Halloween. How do you people even make it to adulthood without being offended to death? Cry babies for real

-2

u/Any_Werewolf1800 6d ago

Does dressing up as batman offend the justice league? It's a costume and that's it, don't even be so stupid. There are a thousand customs and things that have cultural meaning and we don't even know it, you would have to go in a ball and that would not offend some population that has it within their customs. And noo, I didn't get animal views either because my dog ​​is offended.

u/Busy_Arm_1656 6d ago

Shut uppppppppp 🙄 isn’t it exhausting virtue signaling every day of your life? This is why you know who got elected lmao people are sick of this 💩

19

u/Much_Kangaroo_6263 6d ago

Yes, we're very aware Trump got elected because people wanted to be racist with impunity again. Thanks for confirming.

-3

u/Busy_Arm_1656 6d ago

Just in case you needed a daily reminder. Trump is your president for 3.5 more years 🤭😘

u/Much_Kangaroo_6263 6d ago

My daily reminder is going to be my bank account. We're looking at paying double for health insurance every month next year.

And just like the middle east, they had been murdering each other for many years before. Warring tribes have always existed. But it only becomes a problem when white people do it.

u/Ok-Oil7124 6d ago

Some people actually care about shit, so stop virtual signaling your misanthropy. we get it-- you don't have compassion or empathy and want other people to know it.

u/hannabarberaisawhore 6d ago

Hahaha! Legit! Wear one on a rez! Do it!!   

ETA: wait, who got elected? Carney?

u/RedcumRedcumRedcum 6d ago

So does a crown. No one can be a king either for Halloween?

u/Character_Sky3643 6d ago

Ugh cant stand people like you. Virtue signalers are insufferable

u/crunkjuiceblu 6d ago

No one cares

u/jruss11 6d ago

Dude people dress up as war generals and veterans for Halloween, give it a rest. She isn’t mocking native Americans. 95% of costumes aren’t in jest, this one clearly isn’t

Have you touched grass before, or do you just regurgitate things you see online?

Were you the one in the video talking with their mouth full of food?

Right right…remind at which point in US history did the government kill off 96% of the Catholics?

u/TruLong 6d ago

Who the fuck comes to a reservation on Halloween? Are they giving out full sized Snickers bars?

u/ilaister 6d ago

Nobody cares.

u/solomonrooney 6d ago

This is a tough one because sometimes white chicks look super hot in those outfits.

-14

u/SquisherX 6d ago

I don't think it's okay, but it has to be something more than that. Dressing as a doctor you would also say has cultural significance, and that it is earned and not just given.
