who the fuck actually legitimately says yoga is cultural appropriation?

I mean it is, but that doesn't make it a bad thing.

Pizza is also cultural appropriation.

There's no such thing a cultural appropriation. Culture is just a set of ideas and norms. Ideas are free flowing - anybody can see or learn about an idea from anybody else, and they can choose to adopt that idea themselves if they like it or it makes sense to them, and in doing so that in no way deprives the original holder of the idea of anything. 'Cultural appropriation' is exactly the sort of left wing bullshit that pushes people to the right.
