Not really sure where to put this, it's something that was unknown to me but I recall something about author insensitivity/cultural appropriation being posted somewhere recently (if anyone remembers where let me know I'll shift)

I mean some of the nonsense here is just plain ridiculous

My link

It's about books being cancelled, basically because of the internet idiots

It was the Identity Politics thread. Couple of pages back but the last two pages moved pretty quick. :)

Thanks Maccy

Fucking hell, but there are too many retards with too much time on their hands.

I wonder how long it will be before someone identifying as an Elf will sue the Tolkien foundation for stereotyping ... :doh:

Sure. It probably fits there better than here, though the two threads cover fairly similar subjects, it is definitely more geared specifically towards the kind of identity politics being put forward in that link, than generic "political correctness".
