No, but I constantly hear right wingers referencing it. It must be very popular in the echo chamber.

  Yes, it does support a right wing point of view, but that doesn't mean it's necessarily wrong. It's just one video, but there are many other videos and essays about the same topic.

    What "right wing point of view" exactly? That racism isn't a real problem? Are there mainstream right-wing organisations that actually promote that view?
    • jedberg 4y ago
      The right wing uses videos like that to show that, "liberals are the only ones offended by cultural appropriation". The topic is far too complex to be encapsulated in a TikTok video, but the video is just an example of how it's possible that representing another culture could still be appreciated, and that not every instance of representing another culture is appropriation.

      No. The point of view that between being maximally uptight about race is different than acknowledging and working against racism.
      • wizofaus 4y ago
        That's my point of view and I don't consider myself the least bit right wing!

        This is called Common Sense. To the extent that it's right-wing-coded in (and, I believe, only in) USA is only a reflection of how wacko their pseudo-left has gone.

    This guy simply edits videos to provoke a reaction and get clicks. It is just business, and not an accurate depiction of reality at all. It isn't even a creative or original idea. Remember Jimmy Kimmel's "The Man Show" where he got women on the street to sign an "End suffrage now!" petition because "suffrage" sounds like "suffering"? It is an easy trick to embarrass people by shoving a camera in their face and putting them on the spot. But it doesn't actually tell you anything. It isn't a data point.
