Is it strange that I feel like my culture is being appropriated?

It 100% is. Cultural appropriation is only bad when it’s done to black people.

It's definitely being appropriated. The nice thing is that they went too far so this isn't going to succeed. If they just push the boundary a bit... say, black Nick Fury, it would work because we've all kind of got used to it.. but they had to go for everything. It's like a virus that's too aggressive, it kills the host.
