The Prerogatives of Aristocratic “Decadence”
This is somewhat reminiscent of when cosmopolitanism, bohemianism, androgyny, sexual/chemical experimentation, etc. were considered to be the prerogatives of aristocrats in opposition to the values of the conservative peasantry.

UK Charity Teaches Staff ‘White Women Reporting Rape By Black Men Support White Supremacy’
