When Justin Bieber, the young pop star who has had his share of idiot moments, showed off his new blonde dreadlocks, the liberal piranhas came out.
Just when we were starting to like him, @justinbieber goes and gets dreadlocks: https://t.co/i6cXCtsl2a pic.twitter.com/YF4BWjtgLD

Why Justin Bieber insists on appropriating black culture baffles me. His hair looks disgusting and it's not "trendy" #StopWhitePeople2016

Notice the very telling and racist hashtag, #StopWhitePeople2016
Some people didn’t worry about the racist implications. They just wanted him dead.

The backlash for the Beibs changing his hair is to be expected, but the cultural appropriation is just crazy. People are saying that Black people are seen unkempt and are categorized as druggies if they have dreadlocks, but if a white guy does it, then it’s cool!
That argument just doesn’t work, because Justin Bieber looks like a druggie and unkempt. Sorry, but he does.
In the Beib’s defense, he did grow up in a culture where dreadlocks were part of it. He grew up in the American culture where we encourage self-expression and equal rights. Since he was a kid he worked in a very diverse industry. Dreadlocks are part of Justin’s culture and you can’t take that away from him.
“Ironically” the attack on civil liberties is coming from the left and it is okay because the attacks are against white people. White people have to pay. #StopWhitePeople2016
Once we start getting into stealing each other’s culture, then we all are going to be left with nothing. Imagine being white and not being able to eat a taco or listen to Ray Charles. Imagine being black not being able to eat pasta or watch baseball. Imagine being Latino and not being able to eat a hamburger or fly a plane. What about space? White people found space and explored it first, is that theirs?
This whole thing is just ridiculous and the fact that it is being pushed by the left, whose presidential front runner is under FBI criminal investigation, is just embarrassing.
