As Twitchy readers know, SJW Katie Hinde decided she would make America stupid again by moving a bunch of NASA shirts from the boys section to the girls section because apparently that will make women stronger … or something. And while the mockery of her t-shirt situation was epic (read here!), one specific argument caught our attention.
An argument with another SJW, which is ALWAYS popcorn-worthy.
Your my spirit animal?

Ok, so this is nice. Something people say to one another as a means of support?
But apparently SJWs don’t like certain types of support.
Love the support, but ask that you use "patronus" instead bc using "spirit animal" is cultural appropriation.
— Katie Hinde (@Mammals_Suck) June 13, 2017
Yo. Thanks for supporting me but let me tell you how to do it.
And they wonder why we make fun of them.
Enter the other SJW with a lesson on the term “spirit animal.”
Patronus is from Ancient Roman culture. And daemon is Greek. Those commonly suggested "replacements" are also culturally connected.

So wait, Harry Potter is cultural appropriation?! WE KNEW IT!
Please, for the love of all that’s Holy, read another damn book.
"Spirit animal" is an English translation of the word in its Native language. The native word is def appropriation. English is debated.

K.
I should say a translation of the idea… it's more complicated. But yeah, point being patronus/daemon aren't made up. They have roots, too.
— Cara Mia (@cutewitch772) June 13, 2017
Most English words have roots … but we digress.
Oh look, Hinde tied it to CULTURAL GENOCIDE.
FFS.
But not the same bc appropriation of "spirit animal" is in the context of physical & cultural genocide https://t.co/S8Y572avYt

These people have got to lighten up.

Oh wait, seems Hinde committed cultural genocide four years ago!
Oops.
