I hear all this uproar all the time about people who use cultural appropriation, yet sometimes I just don’t see what the problem is. I get that it has been done for malicious intent before and I’m not defending that or suggesting I agree with doing it for such purposes, but is, for example, a chef cooking a certain dish that originates from a land that is not his own, or other examples, really worth the same uproar?

    I agree, but at the same time, his critics at the time did call it ‘cultural appropriation’ regardless of the intent, unless they just did that annoying thing where they completely misuse a term?
