a) how did anyone come to the rational conclusion that we each must stick to our own culture (except if you are of European decent).
b) who the fuck down at Pinterest thought wow this is a great idea that we definitely must push despite no one asking except some deranged women on twitter.
c) how do you draw a line on culture? Can an arab dress as a mummy? Can an african american dress as something from Nigerian culture? Can a Chinese dress Japanese?
Sadly this is not even top tier virtue signaling but a good effort, I assume that the blue checkmark gods are pleased.
What's funny is that in Japan when actual Japanese people see Westerners dressing up in our cultural garb during festivals. We actually feel flattered.
It's like when a guest comes over and you feed them and they actually really like your food so much that they start making it themselves.
I dunno why Leftists somehow think this is supposedly an insult. You're intrigued by a culture so much that you wish to emulate them. As they say, imitation is the highest form of flattery.
It’s literally how civilisation is built. You start using the bits you like and discard the other bits. Otherwise there’d be just one tribe with wheels and everyone else would be left scratching their arses, amazed at the culture that has developed the wheel.
Plus it’s ultimately the highest compliment you can give. You’re literally saying that that particular aspect of culture is superior to everything else which is why you’re engaging in it and not one of the alternatives at the same time.
