One of the best ways to divide us humans even further, by telling to ourselves that sharing cultures is a threat to a nation, even with the reality that all cultures must be welcoming what other cultures can offer for mutual growth.
If you believe a white man for example can not be inspired by cultures made by blacks/yellows/whatever just because his skin is white, you are a threat to the survival of culture itself, as assimilating good values of other cultures to improve yours and sharing your good values to those interested as well is vital to humanity's growth as a whole.

Jane, the Woke SJW: You can't wear a Salakot, you cis white man! That's cultural appropriation! You're endangering Filipino culture by wearing that!
Dylan, A Filipino born in the US: Yes! It is not appropriate! Salakot is for Filipinos only! *takes it from the white guy*
Sean, the white guy: WTF!
Teodoro, a Filipino from the Philippines: *grabs the salakot from Dylan and gives it back to Sean* What are you guys talking about? It's fine! Nothing's wrong with a white guy wearing our creations, as it promotes and shows the capability of Filipino weavers, idiot! Also, it's art, and art must be shared, bobo!
Dylan: *confused on what bobo means*

Get the Cultural Appropriationmug. *Referring to Lady Helena Ravenclaw from J.K Rowling's Harry Potter*
This happens when someone (Often an offspring/friend/spouse/partner of someone famous) gets overshadowed by well... Someone famous (Like how Helena Ravenclaw was being constantly compared and overshadowed to her mother, Rowena Ravenclaw.). It results on the former being constantly compared to, bullied, underestimated or outright discriminated by clueless people based on the latter (The Famous Person), causing mental strain and low self-esteem.
To famous people who have ordinary children/friends/spouses/partners, please never give the Grey Lady effect to them. It sucks. Real bad.

Severus, son of a celebrity dad: I hate my dad. I love acting, but being constantly compared to my dad's achievements kills me.
Dyl: That's the Grey Lady effect for you.
Phyl: That sucks. Being a shadow to your dad.
Severus: I don't like it. I love my dad, but I hate the people treating me like shit because of his fame. I wish I can just be me.
Dyl: That's the Grey Lady effect for you.
Phyl: That sucks. Being a shadow to your dad.

Get the Grey Lady Effectmug. An interpretation of Romeo Montague from Romeo and Juliet that features the guy having dark and creepy tendencies. It ranges from stalker-like behavior to going full nuts after losing his Juliet.
The 1982 Romeo and Juliet film and the Hungarian adaptation of Gerard Presgurvic's Romeo et Juliette: De La Haine a L'Amour had this kind of Romeo interpretation as one of their main flavor.

Dyl: Saw Romeo and Juliet today in a community theatre. The Romeo is kind of creepy, yet very romantic.
Phyl: He must be a Dark Romeo.
Phyl: He must be a Dark Romeo.

Get the Dark Romeomug. *Warning: I never played the game itself, but I studied its lore and story.*
The game's story reveals many things:
• How Hogwarts Castle was constructed
• The nature of Ancient Magic: its mystery, beauty and its undelying dangers to the Wizarding World as a whole
• How Ancient Magic almost turn every witch and wizard into husks; and...
• Why only a select few of witches and wizards are capable of seeing traces of Ancient Magic.
This game also got a boycott attempt from Woketards just because the author of the Harry Potter books, JK Rowling said biological sex is real, trans women are not women, and men should not go to women's bathrooms. (Well, all of these are facts.)
And it failed. Spectacularly.

Phyl: Do you play Hogwarts Legacy?
Dyl: Of course! I love Harry Potter and this is the game that I've been waiting for years!
Woketard: You play that game?! Are you a transphobe?! Well OF COURSE YOU ARE, BIGOT!!!!! (Shrieks constantly)
Phyl: Wanna turn "them" into a husk like what Isidora did to her father, Dyl..?
Dyl: Good idea...
