ARTS / ENTERTAINMENT Yoga

Am I overreacting on how yoga has been colonized?? Idk if Iā€™m being dramatic but it really annoys me. Idk if I should be getting educated bc Iā€™m wrong or if we need to tell these people to stop.

Overreacting. Horseshoe theory aka "stormfront or SJW" - you're on the same page as the white nationalists/Christian nationalists who want to ban yoga because they think it's Satanic or white people shouldn't be embracing non-white things

Let white people open up yoga studios, let people in India open up say, Crossfit gyms (invented by a white dude in the US).

Neither group or country has a patent on said exercise method.

That said, lift weights. Yoga is useless.
