Still not colonization though. You end with unsolvable arguments over who can decide what is appropriation and is there really somebody who can ‘give permission’ for a certain food or hair style or clothing pattern to be used and who decides who that is in the first place…

That is how you end up with a teen girl getting a twitter mob on her last May because she bought a vintage dress from a shop for prom.

There is no limiting principle, no recognized definitions or boundaries and no real way to solve any disagreement since there is no shared and understood definition.

I am open to other interpretation here since I readily admit sociology is something of an annoyance and blind spot to me.
