With headdresses I don’t think that applies at all. But no, I don’t know the history of headdresses, and I could be wrong. Both things still aren’t inherently offensive, and cultural appropriation is still a bullshit concept.

Look all I’m gonna say is you’re out here calling people dimwits and you’re “pretty sure” of x and “don’t know the history” of y so maybe try educating yourself a little bit before throwing those stones in that glass house.

If you take the concept of cultural appropriation seriously you are a dimwit. Knowing ‘the history’ of a specific piece of clothing does not change that.
