I enjoyed their songs and found them to be good people.... Until I started re-watching certain stuff.
It& #39;s been a couple of days since the MV came out and the people spoke up for their culture and against the disrespect shown to their religion and so far, not only have we not received an apology but we (surprise! surprise! )

I have a lot to say about this. I have almost too much to say to be able to address it properly so I& #39;ll be using pointers to address some if not all of my issues with desi culture & religion becoming an aesthetic https://twitter.com/bloominbtsverse/status/1276477514827743233?s=19">https://twitter.com/bloominbt...
2) This is not the first time they& #39;ve done this. Not just Blackpink but Gidle, Oh my Girl and even Dramas!! have appropriated #DesiCulture. It& #39;s not funny. It& #39;s hurtful and takes a mental toll on the people watching their culture be mocked so openly.
Take #KkondaeIntern for ex.
a) No one in the ad seemed to be brown??
b) Who said Indians don& #39;t eat meat??
c) No. We don& #39;t break into song and dance at every chance we get.
It follows all the stereotypes and dismisses us as diverse people in all.

3) Typically Entertainment industries use cultures for its aesthetics and do not take the initiative to understand nor seem to respect the people whose culture they& #39;ve conveniently "borrowed" to put it mildly.
When minorites are in their element they& #39;re looked down upon whereas

4) Those who have appropriated these cultures are praised.
Cultural appropriation is a part of systemic racism that majorly affects a person& #39;s perception of them and their dynamics in the world related to what community they belong to and how they want to "fit in" outside of it.
For example, Colourism is still prevalent across the world. I, a dark brown person, still find it hard to accept my skin colour for what it is and was obsessed with lightening my skin tone before I educated myself on topics of race etc. I still find myself to be thinking that +
Something looks completely different on me than it does on lighter skinned people because I was conditioned to believe lighter skin will be appreciated no matter what and them borrowing my culture without any appreciation for us as a people was not wrong at all.
5) It causes harmful and vicious stereotypes that are hard to break in the long run. Desis especially have asked time and again for an apology and tried to educate those in the wrong. Yet, our incidents in particular are swept under the rug.
It is so disheartening to see ones culture be used for its aesthetics and be mocked in the same breath.
6) The excuses given are a pathetic attempt to stand up for their idols problematic behaviour. No one is without faults. What matters is they learn from their mistakes and not repeat it in the future. We live in an age where we have information at the tip of our fingertips
The idols definitely have an internet connection. So do the companies. They need to look it up and educate themselves once they are accused of something instead of ignoring these things.
What is even worse is the fact that k-pop is growing globally and reaching a lot more people than it did before. This in itself is one of the biggest reasons the companies need to educate themselves, their idols and their staff of CA and how it is harmful
This is not a fanwar or about cancelling idols/actors . It is to get the apology we need.
Everyone& #39;s favs have done something problematic. But the point of this thread is to educate them ans their agencies and to make them understand how wrong CA is and how they need to stop it.
