This “cultural appropriation” crap is not going to go away, is it?

More from Yahoo! Canada:
Indigenous advocates from around the world are calling on a UN committee to make appropriating Indigenous cultures illegal — and to do it quickly.
Delegates from 189 countries, including Canada, are in Geneva this week as part of a specialized international committee within the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), a United Nations agency.
Since it began in 2001, the committee has been working on creating and finishing three pieces of international law that would expand intellectual-property regulations to protect things like Indigenous designs, dances, words and traditional medicines.
Gee, what could possibly go wrong?
This is illiberal, ridiculous, and downright dangerous https://t.co/uhNQQmJ41e

It's just going to get worse. Liberals will stop at nothing.
