re: Disney has halted sales of a costume being accused of racism

I wish someone could explain to me how this is supposed to work?

We want multicultural/diversity. But we don't want anyone to like or adopt or identify with any of the stuff from other cultures. We just want them to see it. But ignore it even if they like it. But talk about it, in a real conversation.But not a conversation we have to listen to as well as talk. That isn't real. It is only real if we do all the talking.

And we want leaders we can identify with, but not ones that try to be like us or act like us because that's wrong. If you aren't us, don't act like us. But you can't lead us if you aren't identifiable to us. But don't be like us, or try to adopt any of our good stuff. But don't be like the not-us people either, cuz they are bad.

Unless of course you want to appropriate gender roles. Then it's cool. And we need to encourage people to do that. But not while wearing an outfit that a person of another skin tone might wear. Or eat any food not originated by your specific people.
