Yep. Exactly. And I love how you brought in the teenager who wore the Chinese dress to her prom, and you’re absolutely correct in saying that she definitely didn’t have any malicious intentions, nor did she care enough honestly about cultural appropriation, and probably just wanted to get attention by looking different. That’s the thing nowadays though, every act is scrutinized under the microscope for any kind of “supposed misdemeanors”, irrespective of a persons age or personal opinion. It seems as though people are constantly judging other people for “sinning differently than them”.

So glad to have read this post of yours! Please keep writing these thought provoking pieces!
