The idea behind cultural appropriation is that one should not be able to just adopt another's culture for prom night, Halloween, or Cinco de Mayo, only to toss it away the next day. Culture is about history, lived experiences, It's not about "who's more oppressed than who", because that's a bullshit measurement; it's about not respecting other cultures. Cultural appropriation is effectively saying something akin to "I'm going to be Japanese for a day" without that day being, say, February 19th, 1942.
