Ni hao! 👋 Do you think the folks in Chinatown were as bothered by Will Witt's Halloween getup as the non-Chinese college students were? 😉😂 This is so good.
If only japanese can wear kimonos, then only japanese can eat sushi. But instead of restricting our taste, we can stop getting offended and start being happy that our culture is spreading.
That's fact. I am Chinese and I do not find this racist or offensive in any way. The person that commented this was a Japanese attire, that was absolutely hilarious. Shows to me you know nothing. Time for him to learn.
That's the problem. These ethnic attires were used to mock Asians. They would also add the gong sound whenever a typical chinese person would enter the scene in movies. It's like asking black Africans who had never understood American racism if they get offended by the word Nigg*r.
China kicks ass every single day for thousands of years. Soon your country will subjugate mine, and that is sad for me, but the Chinese people deserve our affluence a lot more than we do.
@@finnaplow Your future Chinese overlords will not be from Hong Kong. They will be CCP from Beijing....it would be like if the Axis Powers won WW II. Don't think you would enjoy that. Plus, the CCP steals vast amounts of wealth from the Chinese people.
American manufacturing and textile industries sold out America and gave themselves to China as a result we have urban and suburban poverty that never existed before and the social problems that go along with it and both Dems and Reps are to blame for this.

Notice those that think independently take good care of themselves and look gorgeous because they don't wail in self-pity, waiting for people to sympathise with them.
Dude, we love tourists wearing hawaiian t-shirts! We wear them all the time too, but our ancestors culture is not hawaiian t-shirts. Hawaiian t-shirts originated from white culture and was brought to Hawaii anyways. My favorite thing is when I first came to the mainland EVERYONE asked me if I walked around barefoot and wore coconut bras, it was pretty funny.
cultural appropriation is an American concept. People in America care so much because there is a lot of racism and prejudice in its past. The thing is, a lot of countries were colonized and affected by imperialism like India, Australia, and China. The only difference is that most people in these nations don't let things that happened over a century ago affect how they feel today. When they see someone wearing traditional garments they take it initially as flattery because we are no longer in a time where people had to protect their culture from being wiped out. The world isn't as black and white anymore.
yep im an American and i study overseas and when I wear the cultural dresses of the people here they all say i look beautiful in it and tell me to wear it more because i look good in it. they see it as appreciation while our woke society in America sees it as appropriation which is ridiculous
I went to a party wearing the thobe (Arabic men clothing) and someone told me that is disrespectful to the incident (you know what I'm talking about.) The worse part about it was I was an Arab 💀
Unfortunately, woke people will always want to dig up the past and shove in people's faces how racist they are for doing the simplest, most harmless thing.
She was the only reasonable person in that campus. Think about it! There's something really messed up with a large number of people in the american society
I was in college 2004 - 2006 We all did costumes all the time This shit they're saying never even crossed our minds Only debates we cared about were Beer or rum? Road trip or campout? Pubcrawl or house party? Bonfire or beach? Costume party or masquerade? Movie nights or hangover hair of the dog? Only safe spaces we ever even thought about were safe spaces for the booze so it wouldn't be knocked over
after watching this video, i asked my Chinese mom: “Do you find a non Chinese wearing a qipao(traditional Chinese cloths) disrespectful?” she started laughing and said “how in the world is that offensive? They must think its beautiful!” and i laughed with her. its interesting to see the people who actually get mad at cultural “appropriation” arent even the ones in the culture.
they just want to convince us that we should not perceive humans as humans but should divide them into races and not accept anything from another race in order to prevent interbreeding we learn from it not better to live together but rather to divide us further and that is sad
Bro im hispanic but always loved the chinese tradition and Japanese due to martial arts food and other aspects hell thanks to kung fu i learned tae kwon do i know not in the same culture but still expanded my horizon.....i ended up getting a wushu uniform for trainin in my spare time plus its comfy ....i never understood why this is bad....personally i think its fine as long as their not being shitheads lol its crazy
Lol for some reason white people think that by visiting certain ethnic areas and speaking couple of phrases in foreign languages that they prove themselves as multicultural and tolerance. Haha no dawg.
We love to sell our cultural costumes because it makes money. This is not cultural appropriation, it is spreading our culture. Americans sell cowboy costumes and others american costumes. If nobody buys costumes, costume prices will raise and no one will wear them anymore.
@@bige2576 Well, YOU tell us the secret then, smart guy. I bet you're as multicultural & tolerant as Larry the Cable Guy. Another dip shit with a big fat mouth... like a fish.
I think that Mr. Will Witt could have asked the Left's hostile racists if buying chinese-made products "is cultural appropriation too"?! Plus, if the black women and men who straighten their hairs _(and even paint themselves as blonds)_ and chop-off their huge noses in order to try to look westerner, "is cultural appropriation too"? What about Michael Jackson doing all sorts of cosmetic surgeries to look white etc??
I’m Japanese. And I don’t care if non Japanese wear Japanese traditional cloths. 1:23 boy said Japanese culture but it was Chinese. But I think It's not raicist for me as a Japanese. It happened to us a lot. Some people think Japanese traditional clothe as Chinese clothes. But it should not be called racism, it is just lack of knowledge. People make mistakes. Don't worry!!
Yea, although Japanese clothes and Chinese can be told apart, you can’t blame people for mistaking them. If I showed a Chinese person a Dutch dress vs a German dress they probably wouldn’t be able to tell the difference. And that’s okay
@Russell Smith I mean it kinda is when you have white nationalists praisimg for an all white country( culturally and visually) yet love to eat and use cultural foods and things from different places. Thats just being hypocritical
@Ko Chan American culture is the amalgamation of the good parts of every other culture and the abandoning of the bad parts. Freedom number one. Taiwan is the real China. God bless the 2nd amendment.
I’m an arab and when I see foreigners wear our clothes, I feel sense of pride. It never felt offensive and it actually makes me believe “ ah, they respect our cultural and appreciate our history.” In my country, we find joy in watching other cultures enjoying our culture, there’s nothing offensive about it. Never understood the woke of it.
@@user-qt3mg3sl5g we are arab, how can anyone sexualize what we wear when there’s nothing sexual about it? the main point of our culture is modesty.. so
@Back in Black my thoughts exactly. The competitive market is already suffering from lack of "good entrepreneurship traits" among their young employees... for me it's a clear result of this leftist-woke culture. That makes people like her really shine among so many near-autistic amoebas. I should know, because I recently got a job where most people sitting next to me on interview waiting room were like these young people (you can tell it but their appearance and posture alone, sorry but its true). There was only other person there that had a more serious/disciplined/commited demeanor like me and we were the only two people that got the jobs.
My aunt is Mexican and I love her and her family dearly and I used to love it when she involved me in cooking with her or when she gave me anything from Mexico. Back then no one was offended when I wore my poncho or my espadrilles. In fact it was all part of fashion for us. I grew up in Salinas Ca. where I had friends and coworkers who were Mexican. No one was ever offended by anything. We all made jokes about ourselves and each other and all we ever had were laughs and good times. But, when I was twenty I had a boyfriend and we were madly in love. We were inseperable and began to spend a lot of time with our families and they were always gracious to me. We were secretly engaged. He came from a very traditional Mexican family and when they found out they were furious. They forbade him to marry a white girl and told him to quit seeing me and threatened to disown him. He was furious. They were a fairly prominent strawberry farming family in the community and he was fully expected to follow suit, which he was going to do. But in the end, I called it off and walked away because of the pain and utter anguish it was causing him. That was the first time I experienced what is now known as "reverse racism". Back then I just called it utter heartbreak. I will never ever forget him, my first true (adult) love.
If you wear it to mock another cultural and to make fun of it, then it is wrong. If you wear it to appreciate another person culture, i find no wrong with it.
This reminds me of the white high school girl who wore a qipao to her prom. Everyone in America was horribly offended, but all of my Chinese co-workers (I was working in China at the time) thought she looked beautiful in it. The left's idiocy knows no bounds.
America Chinese get angry because it was hard for them when they were young, and they were bullied by other people because of the difference. But then when a white person wears it gets a lot of praise. Even bigger, they get racism from different eyes, for example. But when it is made into makeup, it suddenly becomes trendy.
I’m Korean and when foreigners come to Korea and they visit the historical sites they rent and wear the traditional garment called Hanbok. Koreans like this because they are flattered people from other countries want to celebrate our culture. We even offer free admission to one of the palaces if you wear the traditional garment. There’s no problem as long as you aren’t mocking the people while wearing it. It’s really silly to see others be offended for you. Actually, that’s more offensive in a way - it’s arrogance. This whole cultural appropriation thing started out of insecurity.
Can't agree more! Besides, it's a very hypocritical way of thinking when you consider how every culture gets influenced by others and "appropriate" elements to heir own way all the time, influencing our lifestyles. It was hilarious to see the girl being offended by the costume but she eats Chinese food, high levels of hypocrisy there I'm afraid. Also it's a retrograde way of thinking, tagging people and dividing society when we should be concentrating on uniting.
@@georgaseebalack6003 - hanboks aren’t really hot. I think it depends on what type of material it’s made out of. Korea in the summer is just hot anyway so there’s that lol. Go in the spring or fall.
As a Chinese, the issue is that what you are wearing isn't actually traditional Chinese attire, but costume (or what a lot of people envision as "traditional" instead). Second, your attire is for a rich person, but you're wearing a farmer's hat. Other than that you look great in this.
I remember learning about an English missionary who moved to China to witness to the people there. There were other English missionaries who lived there, but Hudson did what almost no one else was doing: dressing like the Chinese and living like the Chinese. Guess what? He made a lot more headway because he fully embraced their lifestyle and culture and thus, gained their respect.
Exactly what Paul said and did: For though I am free from all, I have made myself a servant to all, that I might win more of them. To the Jews I became as a Jew, in order to win Jews. To those under the law I became as one under the law (though not being myself under the law) that I might win those under the law. To those outside the law I became as one outside the law (not being outside the law of God but under the law of Christ) that I might win those outside the law. To the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all people, that by all means I might save some. I do it all for the sake of the gospel, that I may share with them in its blessings. 1 Corinthians 9:19-23 ESV
Im from Bavaria, germany. The oktoberfest ended two days ago. People from munich actually want people to visit the festival in traditional bavarian clothing. I was also born in the same city as Karl Mai. He wrote the Winnetoe books. Every year was a celebration where kids dressed up as native americans and rode horses (I did not like though^^)
Exu are you blind??? And are tradcons racist against whites now too? You only saw white people being PC when anybody with functioning eyes saw it was mostly black and brown people who were triggered. I always knew tradcucks and feminazi SJW DemonRats are 2 sides of the same coin.
Do you ever notice the same liberals who sing the praises of "diversity" are the quickest to call other people racisit when they acknowledge the most nuetral example of "diversity"? They mock whites who say "I don't see color" why do you think are shamed into feeling that way?
@@alansands256 I think you shouldn't belittle people for their ethnicity, or discriminate, but embracing your culture or celebrating another culture should be fine. I did get the sense that he maybe overplayed the costume a bit, but it's not really worthy of hate
I am chinese, I don't find that inappropriate. I am happy to see more people wearing it. And for the record what he wore is NOT originally Chinese, but Manchurian traditonal clothing, the Chinese adopted it in late 1600s. I don't give a shit why other non chinese people making a fuss!
Im late to the party but a mainland girlie once told me I cant wear a manchu inspired blouse because I'm white 😂 I asked her if SHE was manchu for wearing something similar. Han girlie went bright red and walked off.
I'm Chinese, and I'm totally fine with this. Just asked my wife, who's also a Chinese, and she's fine with this too. We love it, when you like our culture :P
I always liked traditional Chinese attire. It looks very comfortable, like the stuff people wear for martial arts, zhi gong, Tai Qi etc. I would wear it, but I'm tall, blue eyes, brownish blondish hair, I would look like a poser and catch all the side eye. If I were Chinese I'd shamelessly wear traditional garments, I however would be lynched in the woke west, or severely ridiculed, I don't need either. Luckily European fashion is very diverse and has lots of nice stuff, but I wouldn't mind to diversify, I'll get a Chinese garment once I have a little spending money and use it as a pyjama, who's going to say shit. Besides, if they're in my personal space trying to attack me I'll shoot them dead. :)
I don't get that. It's not a culture. 🤔 it's like when someone puts American for ethnicity or Hispanic for race. I'm just confused. Maybe he's British - No one adds bangers and mash to their Thanksgiving menu. They're not like Hungarians, Italians, Jews, Cubans or Poles in America with the holiday food. (I just looked up his name, "witt" is Dutch for "White" 😂)
Hahaha at the end of the day we are all whites 😂. I'm Brazilian but let's check: Portuguese is a Indo-European language, Catholicism is an European religion, my family is Italian and Portuguese, so...? 😂😂😂 No idea
Hilarious video... Yet, I've some doubts: I wonder if cooking or eating a hotdog or hamburger, is "cultural appropriation"... Is playing football (""soccer""), "cultural appropriation"?

We must teach our kids not be offended. Psalm 119:65. If people are easily offended, society will get more chaotic and violent. More like Communist Russia.
I was wearing a Salakot (Cone hat) when I was roaming in Luneta (Rizal Park, in Manila). A white girl told me why am I appropriating Chinese hat when I'm Filipino. A tour guide nearby had to explain that what I'm wearing is a Filipino hat but is rarely used these days.
Yeah, you are right. They are highly uneducated moral colonizers... I also would wear a hat like this if I'd like to do so. No matter what any woke nitwit's opinion is. I am sure no native would feel "triggered", rather they would like it, seeing a Westerner adapting to their culture. At least that's what I experienced while traveling. God bless!
I love when he does the cultural appropriation episodes. The sjw's and race hustlers lose their minds over this stuff while virtue signaling and pandering. The folks who's culture is being "appropriated" are not offended by this stuff at all. Lol
@S p By western I mean from countries that has western culture. Ok so I am swedish and live in Sweden, would it be cultural appropriation if I started wearing traditional east asian clothes every day but still act the same way? Or African clothes or whatever
@S p White countries is kinda what I mean but not exactly. Eastern Europe is not western, same with Turkey and Mexico and South America (I think). But I'm not an expert on this. But white countries kinda yeah
And rules made by some western people only. In Asia, we aren't all crazy about it. As long as you're not being derogatory, we like it here just like the old chinese woman did.
@Varaug Carsaib wearing such eccentric clothing in public is really really weird, especially walking around asking people questions awkwardly makes me cring like the reaction you'd get from that walking in public in the mainland wouldn't be outrage, it would be something like "crazy foreigner"

I am Eurasian American and I can say that the only thing that offends me even slightly is when someone assumes that I’m from a generalized country when I’m not. I can relate to you in someway, though 50% of my DNA is Korean I was born in Europe and then adopted in America. I can say the same about, hey if they’re wearing something from a culture then hey great, no problem. It’s when people disrespect that culture openly and I mean truly disrespect it. Then that’s where I start getting vocal.Anyways, have a nice day.

S M I’ve only been going to school here since fall of 2019, so I haven’t had a lot of incidents occur, but I would say that one of the more extreme ones was something that happened to a girl I met in one of groups I’m in. She’s a government major, so inevitably she’s taking some kind of gov classes, and as soon as the class found out that she was conservative, they turned against her and have called her a white supremacist on multiple occasions. I have more examples if you’d like to hear them, but that’s one of the more extreme incidents I’ve heard of/experienced.

I've heard west Texas has some of the nicest people. But anyways, some more things that have happened, I'll just make a list. -Incmoing freshman this year that were wanting to join one of the two conservative groups on campus (YCTUT and Turning Point) were being threatened to be doxxed by this far left group on campus.

I don't personally take the class so that's all I can really say but I know it's not a good class lol. - There's just a lot of people on campus that have a far left mindset, and I've even read some hateful comments on twitter responding to posts made by YCT. Im currently in YCT so ask me after this school year and I'll bet I'll have a lot more to tell ;)

morning sunrise i mean another example is the October Fest from Munich where I come from. People from all around the world go there and wear Lederhosen and the Dirndl etc. this is why cultural appropriation is so backwards and unbelievably stupid.

College or no college it makes no difference hard skills is what people need to focus soft skills are fine but make no money like art, history and philosophy etc also even if people like half heartedly they should focus on a career in health care the work is clean for the most part and the job security is really good and will get even better as America's population get older.
@@fraserfir19 as you said, soft skills won't get you a job like hard skills will, but they will be important in actually obtaining a job and keeping it, if that makes sense. One of my early classes had a single class on soft skills, a quote that I remember from that was "Hard skill will let you obtain a job, but only soft skills will let you maintain that job". It went something like that. Lets say you are a programmer. Sure, hard skills in programming will get you the job, but if you cant lead a group, or work together in that group, you likely wont have that job for long. Leadership or teamwork are the example soft skills. Point is, soft skills are equally as important as hard skills. People often underestimate how important they are, or don't realize just how broad the term is, and how it encompasses so many skills that people don't immediately notice.
I personally think it's just about attitude. One can wear other counties traditional clothes to appreciate, feel their culture, their clothes etc.. but one also can wear to disrespect the culture.

The elderly Chinese are the cutest! They always seem to appreciate that their culture is being noticed in some way or recognised by a younger generation. I feel like our current generation are less involved culturally that they see the little recognition they get in the community. I'm sure they would want their grandchildren to see significance in cultural dressing more too! Soo beautiful though!
His Chinese isn't that bad. Now before you get on my case, I studied Chinese language and Japanese.

Dude, we love tourists wearing hawaiian t-shirts! We wear them all the time too, but our ancestors culture is not hawaiian t-shirts. Hawaiian t-shirts originated from white culture and was brought to Hawaii anyways. My favorite thing is when I first came to the mainland EVERYONE asked me if I walked around barefoot and wore coconut bras, it was pretty funny.
@@HisDudeness1986 Just like the Chinese don't get offended by whites wearing their clothing.
cultural appropriation is an American concept. People in America care so much because there is a lot of racism and prejudice in its past. The thing is, a lot of countries were colonized and affected by imperialism like India, Australia, and China. The only difference is that most people in these nations don't let things that happened over a century ago affect how they feel today. When they see someone wearing traditional garments they take it initially as flattery because we are no longer in a time where people had to protect their culture from being wiped out. The world isn't as black and white anymore.
yep im an American and i study overseas and when I wear the cultural dresses of the people here they all say i look beautiful in it and tell me to wear it more because i look good in it. they see it as appreciation while our woke society in America sees it as appropriation which is ridiculous
I went to a party wearing the thobe (Arabic men clothing) and someone told me that is disrespectful to the incident (you know what I'm talking about.) The worse part about it was I was an Arab 💀
Unfortunately, woke people will always want to dig up the past and shove in people's faces how racist they are for doing the simplest, most harmless thing.
People of almost every culture will usually be happy if an outsider tries something from their culture

after watching this video,
i asked my Chinese mom:
“Do you find a non Chinese wearing a qipao(traditional Chinese cloths) disrespectful?”
she started laughing and said “how in the world is that offensive? They must think its beautiful!” and i laughed with her.
its interesting to see the people who actually get mad at cultural “appropriation” arent even the ones in the culture.
Qipao isn’t traditional, it’s modern
they just want to convince us that we should not perceive humans as humans but should divide them into races and not accept anything from another race in order to prevent interbreeding
we learn from it not better to live together but rather to divide us further and that is sad

Yea, although Japanese clothes and Chinese can be told apart, you can’t blame people for mistaking them. If I showed a Chinese person a Dutch dress vs a German dress they probably wouldn’t be able to tell the difference. And that’s okay

My aunt is Mexican and I love her and her family dearly and I used to love it when she involved me in cooking with her or when she gave me anything from Mexico. Back then no one was offended when I wore my poncho or my espadrilles. In fact it was all part of fashion for us.
I grew up in Salinas Ca. where I had friends and coworkers who were Mexican. No one was ever offended by anything. We all made jokes about ourselves and each other and all we ever had were laughs and good times. But, when I was twenty I had a boyfriend and we were madly in love. We were inseperable and began to spend a lot of time with our families and they were always gracious to me.
We were secretly engaged. He came from a very traditional Mexican family and when they found out they were furious. They forbade him to marry a white girl and told him to quit seeing me and threatened to disown him. He was furious. They were a fairly prominent strawberry farming family in the community and he was fully expected to follow suit, which he was going to do. But in the end, I called it off and walked away because of the pain and utter anguish it was causing him.
That was the first time I experienced what is now known as "reverse racism". Back then I just called it utter heartbreak. I will never ever forget him, my first true (adult) love.

I’m Korean and when foreigners come to Korea and they visit the historical sites they rent and wear the traditional garment called Hanbok. Koreans like this because they are flattered people from other countries want to celebrate our culture. We even offer free admission to one of the palaces if you wear the traditional garment. There’s no problem as long as you aren’t mocking the people while wearing it. It’s really silly to see others be offended for you. Actually, that’s more offensive in a way - it’s arrogance. This whole cultural appropriation thing started out of insecurity.
if I go to Korea, I am 100$ going to rent an outfit. hanboks are gorgeous and knowing I can rent on e is awesome. hope I don't die of heat though.
Can't agree more! Besides, it's a very hypocritical way of thinking when you consider how every culture gets influenced by others and "appropriate" elements to heir own way all the time, influencing our lifestyles. It was hilarious to see the girl being offended by the costume but she eats Chinese food, high levels of hypocrisy there I'm afraid. Also it's a retrograde way of thinking, tagging people and dividing society when we should be concentrating on uniting.
So, it's okay to mock the people if you're wearing some slacks and a T-shirt?

As a Chinese, the issue is that what you are wearing isn't actually traditional Chinese attire, but costume (or what a lot of people envision as "traditional" instead). Second, your attire is for a rich person, but you're wearing a farmer's hat. Other than that you look great in this.
Exactly, he wore the stereotype of a Chinese in the Western mind.
That "hat" is actually a Vietnamese hat. No relation to chinese or what so ever. It is south east asian if anything.

That looks far from a formal attire.
Usually you just wear that shirt and suit pants. Now that's formal Chinese attire.
Hmmm I never new that, I learn new things everyday thanks!
Honestly looks more Vietnamese than Chinese lol.
I remember learning about an English missionary who moved to China to witness to the people there. There were other English missionaries who lived there, but Hudson did what almost no one else was doing: dressing like the Chinese and living like the Chinese. Guess what? He made a lot more headway because he fully embraced their lifestyle and culture and thus, gained their respect.

Exactly what Paul said and did:
For though I am free from all, I have made myself a servant to all, that I might win more of them. To the Jews I became as a Jew, in order to win Jews. To those under the law I became as one under the law (though not being myself under the law) that I might win those under the law. To those outside the law I became as one outside the law (not being outside the law of God but under the law of Christ) that I might win those outside the law. To the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all people, that by all means I might save some. I do it all for the sake of the gospel, that I may share with them in its blessings.

I always liked traditional Chinese attire. It looks very comfortable, like the stuff people wear for martial arts, zhi gong, Tai Qi etc.
I would wear it, but I'm tall, blue eyes, brownish blondish hair, I would look like a poser and catch all the side eye.
If I were Chinese I'd shamelessly wear traditional garments, I however would be lynched in the woke west, or severely ridiculed, I don't need either.
Luckily European fashion is very diverse and has lots of nice stuff, but I wouldn't mind to diversify, I'll get a Chinese garment once I have a little spending money and use it as a pyjama, who's going to say shit.

Can you please help me understand the statement she made?? I can't put it together. Thanks
I go to the university of Texas at Austin...it’s terrible...:/
S M I’ve only been going to school here since fall of 2019, so I haven’t had a lot of incidents occur, but I would say that one of the more extreme ones was something that happened to a girl I met in one of groups I’m in. She’s a government major, so inevitably she’s taking some kind of gov classes, and as soon as the class found out that she was conservative, they turned against her and have called her a white supremacist on multiple occasions. I have more examples if you’d like to hear them, but that’s one of the more extreme incidents I’ve heard of/experienced.
@@SM-by1od If you want to not be close to the more liberal parts of Texas, just don't live in any of the big cities like Austin, Dallas, San Antonio, Houston, etc. I grew up in a small town I'm grateful I did bc I didn't have to experience any far left nonsense growing up lol. I've heard west Texas has some of the nicest people. But anyways, some more things that have happened, I'll just make a list. -Incmoing freshman this year that were wanting to join one of the two conservative groups on campus (YCTUT and Turning Point) were being threatened to be doxxed by this far left group on campus. It made the news you can look it up. - This is a smaller thing, but definitely not good, but I hear people all the time dissing capitalism and saying the socialism is the way to go. - I have a friend who is in a blackness incarceration class (you can already tell by the name that that's terrible lol) But my friend who is in it is actually conservative and frankly the nicest person I've ever met, and they pretty much talk about how blacks are being oppressed and how socialism and communism is the way to go. I don't personally take the class so that's all I can really say but I know it's not a good class lol. - There's just a lot of people on campus that have a far left mindset, and I've even read some hateful comments on twitter responding to posts made by YCT. Im currently in YCT so ask me after this school year and I'll bet I'll have a lot more to tell ;)
@@SM-by1od ha me too. The only thing that's keeping me here is the fact that I'm passionate about what I'm majoring in
I laughed so much when the lady at 2:36 told him "Bonito" 😂
It was so unexpected to hear a spanish answer from a chinese person being asked a question in english.
She isn't speaking Spanish, She is speaking Portuguese, perhaps she is from Macau, a former Portuguese colony
@@pedroaguiar9128 Sim, sem duvida que ela é de Macau. Mas a palavra bonito tanto se usa no Português como o Espanhol.
As vezes parace que a gente se esquece que as duas linguas são 90% idênticas..
@@pedroaguiar9128???? Sabes que el español y portugués son prácticamente lo mismo muy pocas palabras cambian
Filipino maybe, because they speak some spanish
@@pedroaguiar9128 bonito is used in Spanish too?
I feel sorry for these kids that have been taught to be offended by everything. They are gonna grow up and feel so dumb for being told how they are to feel
they are already dumb
A bullet can even cure cancer my good mate
especially the black women with braids down her butt telling he was offensive appropriation of chinese custom when her braid never come from Africa at all. it was a very asian and european custom for women hair and some men's hair. the democrat slave in the past got that style after many generation here. so did they steal that custom ? are they being offensive ? do anyone care? it seems they are the only ones who care? so we cannot eat other culture's food or wear their cloths? than she should be walking around with only african cloths even though she and her ancestors have been apart from the place when an african tribe sold one of her grandparents years ago to a muslim trader on the african coast.......
Yea
Dude... they'll grow up and teach that shit to their kids
The girl who was like, “oh, right… I forgot where I go to school.”😅
That Chinese lady said "bonito" which is Spanish. I'm confused.
That also means beautiful in Portuguese which is an official language in Macau S.A.R.
@@gabrielbaynunn2418 you are absolutely right. And the funniest thing they have the most similar accent as Brazilians have. Hahaha I don't know why or how 😂
@@anandadaquino3604 Brazilians' English accent?
JD's Progress 2nd Channel she probably is Filipino because it was a Spanish colony for a time and so picked up a few Spanish words
Macaunese people can speak Portuguese
A Westerner wearing a kimono would get the same positive reaction in Japan.
@JKay11235, ikr. Asian people actually happy when western people enjoy and Like wearing our Asian traditional clothes. As a matter of fact, we are wearing western clothes every single day. Only libtards that offended in everything.
@JKay11235 In most countries (not only Asian), nobody cares.
Onlu Leftist LibTards behave as if they do.
They would probably laugh.
morning sunrise i mean another example is the October Fest from Munich where I come from. People from all around the world go there and wear Lederhosen and the Dirndl etc. this is why cultural appropriation is so backwards and unbelievably stupid. The “progressive left” is actually incredibly and ironically “regressive” because we should all come together as people and celebrate the cultures and traditions of everyone. Obviously, they don’t seem to want that.
My wife is Laos... her family wanted me to dress up in Laos traditional wedding attire. But since I’m Irish I wore a kilt. Just to mix the two cultures.... but every year during Laos Thai Cambodian New Years I wear men’s Laos clothing. And everyone at the temple always comments how good it looks
Most surprising part of the whole thing:
Student: "I personally don't see a problem with any of it."
Will: "Thank you. You're one of the first."
Student: "Really? I mean, that's not surprising. I forgot where I go to school."
So not all Berkeley students are idiots!
Guess I've been stereotyping them all this time...
Yep... the situation is much brighter. All -1 Berkeley students
Friggin weaklings
That hat actually looks great for keeping out the sun and rain, and those clothes look very comfortable and breathable
Funny thing is that Chinese people absolutely LOVE it when their celebrate is celebrated
In Canada we have Edmonton Eskimos and one of the national Inuit representative in Ottawa was like I’m offended by this name and going on the national news and everything but the actual Inuit came together and defended the Edmonton Eskimos it was hilarious and Inuit and Edmonton Eskimos formed a great bond because of this I really thought that was cool
Ca W. Jews would absolutely NOT care at all. They are not sensitive little nancys.
When their celebrate is celebrated
celebrate is celebrate is celebrate is celebrate is celebrate is celebrate is celebrate is celebrate is good. :) sorry couldn't help myself haha
Lmao Jews would get this guy cancelled if he was mocking their culture in this way, they are a protected group in the west but everyone else is fair game.
That old woman telling him, “No, good!” made me so happy. Reminded me a lot of my own grandma who passed away in 2015. Sharing culture is important, and as long as no one mocks it, i think it’s totally fine to wear what you want. i miss u nainai
so sweet, may your grandma rest in peace 🥺 I'm not Chinese, I'm Greek, but the grandma saying "pretty, pretty" reminds me of my yiayias (grandmas) 😭 I love Chinese people and culture
That is so sweet

"Do you like my outfit?"
"No, but I'll take a picture so I can tell all my gender studies friends how woke I am that I said that to you!"
More like comatose.
Did they actually say that
@@QuinnGriffithIsTheBest When asked if he liked the outfit the little soy boy just said "No!" but I can imagine my remark is pretty true since he did take a picture
I was so heartened by the second half of the video. Gives me hope.
Same. And I say this as a western student. My people have gone crazy…
Same as my Mexican bros, we don’t care if you wear our culture, it’s just clothes for us, use it bro.
I miss your poncho and sombrero, it looked cool on you
Parzival V like even for Halloween?
kohaku
Yes, I don’t see a problem.
People here dress as the Mexican stereotype for fun, also when we have Día de muertos we dress as Yucatecos with our shirts and dresses.
You know whats funny they say its wrong for us to wear a diffrent cultures atire. But yet all of these countries sells stuff like sambraos and kimonos to the tourists. If they really didn't want forgniers wearing traditional clothes they would not even sell it to them.
Parzival V I can understand that many may not have a problem with people from other ethnicity wearing their own ethnic closing for fun, or to make fun, to certain extent, but I also respectfully understand some others may get offended by it.
@@kohakugawazy yeah white millennial's
Racists: You shouldn't wear that.
Liberals: You shouldn't wear that.
It's almost as if...
I see the pattern
Because liberals are racist! lol
@@thelastpioneer2824 liberals technically arent, leftists are. Or the modern democrats
HOLY SHITTTTT
Wow what a funny coincidence! I wonder if it has any significance?
College a place where students become dumber.
More like where they become giant pussies.
You'd want to say become more dumb not dumber 😉 just kidding you can use either 👍
College or no college it makes no difference hard skills is what people need to focus soft skills are fine but make no money like art, history and philosophy etc also even if people like half heartedly they should focus on a career in health care the work is clean for the most part and the job security is really good and will get even better as America's population get older.
@@fraserfir19 as you said, soft skills won't get you a job like hard skills will, but they will be important in actually obtaining a job and keeping it, if that makes sense. One of my early classes had a single class on soft skills, a quote that I remember from that was "Hard skill will let you obtain a job, but only soft skills will let you maintain that job". It went something like that. Lets say you are a programmer. Sure, hard skills in programming will get you the job, but if you cant lead a group, or work together in that group, you likely wont have that job for long. Leadership or teamwork are the example soft skills.
Point is, soft skills are equally as important as hard skills. People often underestimate how important they are, or don't realize just how broad the term is, and how it encompasses so many skills that people don't immediately notice.
Chances are they were already pretty dumb prior to arriving. But your point is a valid one.
I personally think it's just about attitude.
One can wear other counties traditional clothes to appreciate, feel their culture, their clothes etc..
but one also can wear to disrespect the culture.
The lesson: Young liberals get offended way too easily.
Leftists
That way it's so fun to mess with them
Yep, that's why they're a laughing stock.
My girlfriend is Chinese. She is very eager for me to wear certain types of Chinese clothing. She wants me to have the quilted pjamas. She wants me to have the jacket with the cords around the buttons. And I am absolutely required to have slippers to go in her apartment.
Young Liberals are the first to go on the Extinction list..simply because it is not sustainable and in the end stupidity loses out to Darwinism !
When I spent time in Thailand and told local girls that I was there studying meditation, they LOVED that. They understood that I was paying their culture a huge COMPLIMENT. Cultural appropriation is the biggest non-issue ever.
Meditation is a quality, not an act, great that you're open to it.
Totally agree
Disrespectful.
As an Asian the only offensive thing in this video is when 1:26 that guy mixed up Japanese clothing from Chinese clothing like seriously
He assumed his culture, that’s a nono
@Cicero Progontus By being educated in world culture.
EXACTLY!!!!
@Cicero Progontus he did assume though, and didn't just ask.
Dude, seriously. People mix up (Korean) Hanboks and kimonos, too, and it drives me crazy.
As a Spanish American, I can confirm he has got the drip. This isn’t cultural appropriation it’s cultural appreciation.
I'm of chinese ethnic and whoever wants to wear Chinese costumes can wear it. It's nice to see people from other races embrace the culture. Just don't be racist. I don't know why white, black people get offended.
America Chinese get angry because it was hard for them when they were young, and they were bullied by other people because of the difference. But then when a white person wears it gets a lot of praise. Even bigger, they get racism from different eyes, for example. But when it is made into makeup, it suddenly becomes trendy.
@@lolypoppp7 urm you dont know everyone experiences based on their race and whrere they come from.You're ignorant just say you hate white people and go
Only americans care about this.In the rest of the world,you can wear whatever you want,it doesn't matter your color
@@lolypoppp7 Source of white people being praised: I made it up
Because either A: they don’t wanna be left out. Or B: they don’t wanna be seen as racist
Omg the old people were so adorable 😭 also this was hilarious Ni Hao y’all! 😂

Insensitive.....
@@goinginwardistheonlyway493 thanks
"That's not surprising. I forgot where I go to school.." 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
For those who didn’t like it just tell them that you identify as a Chinese
" If chinese gov. say no, I'm sorry we can't do anything about it. So it's not right. "
I mean. Race is technically a social construct. So Boom!
For real, hahaha
LMAO
This made me LOL! (laugh out loud!)
1:44 dude talking is LITERALLY wearing Hawaiian design shirt
Dont call him out. He'll get offended twice.
Wow i didnt even realize, that's hilarious.
That's coconut face!
Nice catch
@@bmac4039 no, as opposed to figuratively ;)
*Liberals - OOHH MY GOD THAT'S SO OFFENSIVE, WAAAH WAAH WAAAAAHHHH.............*
*Asian - Well if you're not being racist then all good bro*
Legit though
Literally all most of them said was like "I mean it's a bit weird dude" LIBTARDS DESTROYED AND TRIGGERED EPICLY LEFT OWNED
Saying someone can’t wear a certain thing because they’re not a certain ethnicity is actually what’s contributing to racial division.
Girl near the end saying "I forget where I go to school" sums up the video.
The old grannies were awesome hahahaha god bless them
I am Canadian. Several years ago I was walking through the streets of Paris and met two young Parisians dressed as Mounties for a party. Not only was I not offended, I made conversation and took their photos. It was quite flattering in a way to see one's culture, even something as stereotypical as the Canadian Mountie, being embraced in a good spirited and fun way.
They can also eat all of the poutine they want
My generation is butthurt and offended about absolutely nothing
America is about celebrating other people's cultures.
Is that what Will Witt is doing? Is he celebrating the culture of people from China? It seems like he's just using this as an excuse to make a point.
@@jazzstandardman thats exactly what he's doing. He's making a point. I point i believe he made perfectly.
Yeah, because guess where all those cultures decided to migrate to.
Furor Teutonicus lol. Ok
@Furor Teutonicus I understand that but dude, what does that have to do with the fact that America is a very diverse country?
Lol if these guys knew “Chinese” food on Malls is actually Americanized they would be triggered for life
Kevin D. Najera
American-Chinese is a fusion cuisine,
But not all of it is “Americanized”.
So is Panda Express cultural appropriation?
They wouldn't be triggered because they don't actually care. They're just judgemental asshats who want an excuse to be mad - they consider themselves immune to the things they condemn others for.
@@HuntingTarg
Panda Express makes me sick, and I'm not kidding. Physically ill.
HuntingTarg Panda Express is founded by Chinese so.....no?
Will: are you surprised that your one of the first not offended
Girl: Well yah, wait I guess not, I forgot where I go to school
haha thx for exposing your school
She was a looker too. Very attractive.

She was being sarcastic. She didn’t literally forget.
@@stevied3400 I understood her sarcasm. But thanks anyway.
3:10 she has perfect sense.
The elderly Chinese are the cutest! They always seem to appreciate that their culture is being noticed in some way or recognised by a younger generation. I feel like our current generation are less involved culturally that they see the little recognition they get in the community. I'm sure they would want their grandchildren to see significance in cultural dressing more too! Soo beautiful though!
Coz they are proud of their country, when they see people wear their clothes theyll be like oh they wear my dress they prob find them cool
The only part of this video that offends me is his horrendous Chinese
He’s white what do you expect?
First Last me
Neeehowwww 🤦♂️
“She she”
His Chinese isn't that bad. Now before you get on my case, I studied Chinese language and Japanese. No matter what Americans will murder Asian languages, but then again I have talked to Chinese and Japanese native speakers and they do the same when they speak English. I know why it happens and if you can speak Asian languages and get your meaning across then you have not done to bad.
