I don't want to engage in a debate here. For one thing, it's against the rules to engage in protracted political debate. I was expressing a feeling and a concern, and a mostly passing observation in my first reply. And as I have found Tiki culture to be welcoming, I even expressed belief that things had changed for the better. I still do.

And then I left the conversation, six months ago. I'm not going to debate the points I raised, but I will express surprise that I seem to be less free to express a view than others here. Who is really trying to stifle expression here?

I'm not a child nor a young adult. I'm now into middle-age. I don't need to be lectured on the past or the supposed oversensitivity of the youth, or patronised with the belief that my views are due to youth I no longer have.

I'm remembering to uncheck "notify me when users post a reply."

Please return to posts of plastic Tiki mug IP tie-ins. We can all agree that if anything is offensive, that is!
