It is no accident that the cultural appropriation meme evolved in the social justice context. The tabooed markers indicate purity (absence of original sin = 'privilege'). They entitle the unprivileged to restorative justice (material compensation), so counterfeiting is a problem.

The cultural scale and the scale of the individual both exist, in feedback constructing and reconstructing each other. Denial of either scale is extremism.

Just because something is a social construct doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Try saying this if you were part of a group whose culture was being commercialised and stereotyped while your community continues to be oppressed.
