So many awful boomer Facebook memes here... Variation on "OK, boomer." - Check! 1) attacking the arguer, not the argument. Check! 2) Using "tard" as an attempt to be clever without realizing how dated it makes you sound. Check! 3) That same old "joke" about how useless college is. Check! 4) That same old "joke" about gender identity. Check! Congrats! You're a boomer.

I just read the article and after careful consideration, it is my professional opinion that the author is, for lack of a better appellation, fucking Looney Tunes. If wokeness wants to rob us of awesome film music, wokeness needs to die. See, this I can work with. I agree that the article is bonkers but don't you think there is a shred of truth to how art borrows from other cultures without any sort of accountability? Should there be accountability? Does it really matter? Is it unfair to attack Star Wars exclusively for this when so many other artforms are indebted to each other? We acknowledge the relationship between blues, rock and roll, jazz, and religious hymnals, what about film scores? Or we could just argue about ageism some more...

I 100% agree with you and applaud you for trying to make a good faith argument here — but unfortunately many members of this board are very stuck in their ways and any consideration that the world they grew up in may not be the way the world is now falls on deaf ears.

Acknowledging influence from various cultures, yes. Being accountable in the sense of accepting responsibility for that influence or borrowing? Not necessarily.

Cultures should be free to integrate elements from other cultures and adapt and improve them as they see fit. That's how cultures grow and evolve. Cultural appropriation is a nonsensical idea. I'm sure that most Westerners prefer, for example, Westernized "Chinese" Food compared to the real thing. Much in the same way, I have to say I prefer Williams' take on Irish or Asian music to the "real" thing.
