Believe it or not, Israel’s latest Eurovision winner, Netta, has been accused of “cultural appropriation.”
Believe it or not, it has not been by the palestinian Arabs or their supporters.
ME @ EVERY WHITE WOMAN CELEBRATING ISRAEL’S WIN
THAT PERFORMANCE WAS SUPER RACIST SHE HAS LITERALLY STYLED HER MAKEUP TO MAKE HERSELF LOOK ASIAN

As Deebo pointed out the other day, we actually saw Jewish culture.
Meanwhile, some thought Finland’s performance entailed “cultural appropriation.”
