@S8am88888@NabunnyOnce_ but human migration doesn't invalidate indigenous history. The Bamar integrated, built empires like Bagan,l and shaped their distinct culture directly on myanmar soil for over a millennium. they are as native to Myanmar as any group can be
@S8am88888@NabunnyOnce_ yes the ancestors of the Bamar not burmese people migrated from the Tibetan plateau region over a thousand years ago, just like the Thais migrated from southern China.
@NabunnyOnce_ even though King Thibaw had shan ethic which is under myanmar ancestry from his mother's side, he was born in Myanmar and ruled the country, making him fully burmese by nationality. do not misrepresent our culture or history without understanding these clear boundaries
@NabunnyOnce_ please don't confuse ethnicity with nationality when it comes to Myanmar culture. Burman (Bamar) refers specifically to the ethnic group, while Burmese represents the nationality of everyone from Myanmar, regardless of ethnicity+
@ryuuuuuppk@KhaingChaw23@_2PiEr_ the blending of Burmese and Tai Lue attire is entirely our internal heritage no need to stress yourself trying to link it to Thailand.
@ryuuuuuppk thx for noticing the Tai Lue top. but let me remind you that the Tai Lue and other Tai groups in Myanmar's Shan State were under Burmese royal influence for centuries. their cultural blending happened right on their own land, with zero connection to your Central Thai Chut Thai.
@ryuuuuuppk if ur going to use the shared culture excuse whenever it benefits you, please remember that same logic now. don’t suddenly ask for receipts when others start wearing it too.
@ryuuuuuppk@KhaingChaw23@_2PiEr_ so when it’s our outfit, it’s shared culture, but when it’s urs, suddenly the rules change? If our cultures are intertwined enough for you to wear our clothes, then we can definitely wear yours too.
@ryuuuuuppk@KhaingChaw23@_2PiEr_ oh so that's your outfit? It's not like he’s speaking Burmese or claiming it's a traditional Myanmar dress while wearing it. so just chill out, okay?
@emmie2104@gayboyxv why would we want people to know our culture under their country’s name, in their language, and set in a city they created? that isn't sharing our culture it’s just rebranding it as theirs and exploiting it. we value our identity too much to let it get erased like that
@ryuuuuuppk@KhaingChaw23@_2PiEr_ show me a single official national costume from another country that looks exactly like https://t.co/5Cad621TMF matter where its roots came from, our traditional clothes evolved into something completely unique to us.
