When mainly white [people] on platforms such as [Reddit] and [TikTok] appropriate the aesthetics of East Asian culture (particularly [Japan] and Korea) often sexualising it. They tend to get defensive, play the victim card or claim to be culturally 'appreciating' rather than 'appropriating' when called out by actual East Asians or EA Wasians. An academic would understand this as Orientalism, a geographer would understand this as an 'outsider, media perspective of place', but an EA baiter just thinks they are ~unique~. EA baiters also frequently seem to combine Korea, Japan and China into 'Asia' forgetting about South-East Asia, South Asia and the Middle East. Non-EA who actually try to learn about and appreciate the complexity of EA countries, traditions, history, culture, future etc. are wonderful [people].
