Looks like someone escaped from the Hexbear echo-chamber and hasn’t realized yet that their phrasing is virtually indistinguishable from right-wing trash.
How on earth do you make the jump from “some indigenous cultures believe this cool thing” to “fetishizing indigenous cultures as these perfect things”

They’re just saying that some cultures believe this thing and they agree with that belief.
I guess I can’t know for sure what she meant without being able to ask her, but there’s no reason to assume she was making an extremely weird claim when that obviously isn’t necessarily true.
But I guess if you are willing to jump to that conclusion, you will see claims like that everywhere, and maybe that makes it seem like a safe assumption that that is what she’s saying.
(When I say “maybe,” I really do mean maybe. I’m not under the impression that I know everything about you, lol. I’m just exploring a possibility that there’s no real way for me to ever confirm or falsify. Just thinking out loud for curiosity’s sake.)
