Please stop this. Every instance of someone referencing something that originated from a culture other than their own is not "appropriation" or "racism".

They're not talking about mere referencing, though. The problem is one of intentional redefinition in an attempt to counteract a movement. And indeed, the motivation for doing so is often racism.
