Actress Alyssa Milano was mercilessly mocked in 2017 after she flaunted corn rows with extensions in her hair — a move that many considered “cultural appropriation.” Now, with woke cancellations on the rise, the Charmed star is facing renewed backlash.

In 2017, the HuffPost noted that the Internet “collectively [laughed]” when Milano was seen wearing cornrows in her hair ahead of the 2017 Super Bowl in Houston, Texas. Huffington Post’s Philip Lewis pointed out the shocked and sneering expressions on the faces of the black people pictured behind Alyssa Milano in a tweet that apparently needed no comment.

"Cultural Appropriation" aside, that 2017 pic is ghastly.

If there's anyone I want to see go down (no, get your mind out of the gutter, that's not what I mean!),  it's her!

And sometimes a "corn row" is just a braid. Good grief.

But exposing the hypocrisy of the left is delicious, no doubt.

Nobody gives the good g-damn about how people style their hair or the clothes they wear except for snowflake liberals.
But is good to see them eat their own.
