A duck swims, then climbs a rock, then walks, then he lounges for a while, then runs, then swims again, then dives, and suddenly remembers some time ago he heard about another continent, so he takes off, and flies for days, only stopping to eat and sleep. Yeah, I'm a duck.

YSK ducks gang rape, routinely resulting in female ducks, and their ducklings, drowning. But sure, you be a duck.

Also, and this may sound harsher than it's meant. I mean I don't know you, this may not even apply to you. Anyway, I thought the whole spirit animal thing went down the hole labeled cultural appropriation. Not that I'm offended, if it is cultural appropriation, then I'm on the list of cultures for whom it's inappropriate to use.

1st, lighten up. This is a meme sub, fer chrissakes!

2nd, if you are a Dane, as your UID implies, it's likely you identify with Vikings, whose main contribution to Europe was pillage, rape, and redheads all the way to north Africa.

3rd, cultural appropriation is bullshit. That amounts to saying that culture is a thing, and that it can be owned, if we go down that route, no Japanese Orchestra should be allowed to play Beethoven, or Bach, or classical Spanish guitar, or anyone in the world should be allowed to listen or play to Rock, because it appropriated African rhythms and other musical elements.

But mostly, yeah, lighten up.

  1. Just because it's a meme comm does that make it OK to use non inclusive words? Can we use racial slurs, because it's a meme comm? What about ableism?
  2. I don't see what that has to do with anything, other than highlighting your immense powers of deduction.
  3. Whether cultural appropriation is a thing or not is not up to us to decide. I can definitely see how someone, from a downtrodden cultural minority, could want to protect their culture. I couldn't give less of a fuck if you wanted to eat rød grød med fløde or risalamande, but then again, as you implicitly pointed out, nobody's tried to destroy my cultural heritage recently.

And lighten up? I made a comment apologetically pointing out a possible issue with regards to inclusion, and you took it like I had just raped you cat. WTF? Could you lighten up? I wasn't attacking you

Lol I think the only thing more ADHD, than my obsessing about the issues with the post, is interpreting a comment almost apologetically pointing out the issues, as an assault and getting defensive about it.

The spirit animal concept is problematic itself https://duckduckgo.com/?q=is+spirit+animal+cultural+appropriation and claiming that it's a duck exposes either your own lack of knowledge or sexual kinks.

Besides reading articles about it, potentially written by white Europeans or hallucinated by AI, I can't know whether spirit animals actually are offensive, as we don't have a lot of native Americans here in Scandinavia to talk with. But if we want to be inclusive then maybe we should just err on the side of caution?
