Before I too am protected from cultural appropriation by the most common method proscribed by enthusiasts enthralled by the goal of preventing anyone from using in any method or situation a culture of anyone else by forcing everyone else to not mention the culture again, let me tell you the culture of which I am a part. .............
The following is secretly released by me: It's too late. I've been culturally protected (erased). Along with the infinitely endless list of unnamed cultures they are protecting from appropriation. None of which, as a result, will mankind ever hear about forever more. Just as diamonds, it is rumored, are forever. (1)(2) So too is the protection against cultural appropriation.
Yes, logic & reason do not exist in this ideology. Perhaps this intellectual field should be called Appropriation Ideology (AI). No one would get that confused with something else.
If you ask these courageous defenders, what is their culture? Anticipate a confused look on their faces.
Note: In this cultural appropriation section:
(1) Diamonds are Forever, the movie: the 7th James Bond movie produced by Eon Productions. 1971.
(2) Diamonds are Forever, the song/title track for the movie. Sung by Shirley Bassey, Music by John Barry, Lyrics by Don Black. EMI 1971.
Sub-note: My mind is in a mental whirlwind resulting from the effort to prevent the cultural appropriation of language.

Goal: Increase knowledge of economic reality preserving life through tariffs war. My hypothesis explained here in an example is the loss of life of passengers on the Titanic. The loss would have been substantially fewer if there had been a tariff of 100% and more on the price of tickets. Recommendation: Adopt the policy to save lives with tariffs by charging only enough tariffs to save 100% of lives. Expect this methodology to work almost perfectly achieving the intent for applying the tariff.
Warning label: Side-effects are certain to result in the diminishment (diminution) of quality or entirety of life. *
Supposition: The side-effect may over time result in a similar amount of life diminution as the actual event that occurred with the iceberg. AN OPINION

The clue woven into the yarn, "history repeats itself" is that the "story" has been told before. Sometimes ingenuity (responsibility) can reveal what the repetition point will be (begin/end) since it is known that the current story is metaphorically, figuratively or elsewise plagiarized from history. The curtain dropping end is the only part of the performance that will happen only once.
Unpredictables shall be called "miracles". They are not foreseeable (predictable), so their effect has a case-by-case impact on the performance of reality.
No such word I predict this moment but not always.
OPINION. Historically consistent. That qualifies me for classification as opinionated.)

Canada has focused on the cow for a hoof in the door of dairy (milk/cheese) supply management*.
U.S. has focused on the steer for a horn in the door of beef supply management*.
Both (all) governments focus on everything it can dream of to force its laws on everyone it can. Each a micro story of the macro rule of man which is evidenced by a propensity to build a Tower of Babel of/to their own cause for survival of man. Particularly the men they know they are themselves.
So, we continue on a trail of our existence.
