I am confused as to why it is good or bad or neither. Genuinely confused. Please and thank you.

It’s one of those concepts that’s equally the action it’s describing, but also the way it’s perceived by the view.
It’s it’s core it’s when a person affects a culture that isn’t their own, for example a white person wearing a Japanese Kimono or throws a party to celebrate Diwali. Now there are tons of reasons that we should be celebrating and encouraging our various cultures and traditions that are great and wholesome things.
BUT from a very specific angle, you could look it as people of White European heritage, who have “taken everything else” from the various peoples of the world *taking the last thing left -* their cultural identity. And if you view it from this angle, you can see why this would be a very offensive and rage-inducing.
So yeah, I think it’s one of those things that’s not describing the act itself, but how it’s interpreted by the view.
