Surely a more incisive question is about a human's capacity to produce any original statement, all of which are necessarily couched in the available metaphor of ones cultural and historical milieu? Language, artistic expression - these aren't the spontaneous produce of a romantic mind, but a tissue of cultural signifiers cultivated through diverse social interactions. Lol.

Stephen Malkmus once had a Turkish girlfriend. He's also a fan of 60's, 70's Turkish psych, rock'n roll music. And it's not a secret that he got this riff from Özdemir Erdoğan's song Gurbet. He didn't steal or something. You can see it on his cd.Stephen rocks!!!

Ummm, study malkmus' catelog slightly further first. He put this song like third to last on his eleventh or twelvth album to date. It is hardly a staple but it rocks alot harder, better and more ingenious than the song that obviously influenced it. A nod to the turkish artist who probably stole the two or three note riff from chuck berry or elvis....to judge SM in any way on this is hilarious given his output.
