You know perfectly well how the game is played. That doesn't count because the Dutch are white, and therefore they are always oppressors and never oppressed, by definition. (I am not joking. I have personally seen claims made that neither Jews nor Armenians were ever oppressed because white people have never suffered from oppression.)
I've been through all this BS in my own line of work, and it stinks. If you don't use elements from other people's cultures, you're racist because that's not inclusive. If you do use elements from other people's cultures, you're racist because that's cultural appropriation.
There is nothing you can possibly do to appease your accusers, except drop out and stop working. I've seen careers destroyed, people fired, people hounded out of professional organizations over this stuff. It brings absolutely no good to anybody.
