Does what she's talking about actually bother you guys? She mentions how you guys really don't have a say about how your culture is 'fetishized' over here. Do you guys really care? Or is this person just being a cultural imperialist and treating you guys like children.

No, culture always morphs and changes. Cultures clash with one another. Trying to preserve culture or keep cultures separate is pointless. It won't happen. Time erodes all. Furthermore, there's not a problem with actively participating in a culture you weren't raised in. If Japanese people like American movies and books I'll be happy others enjoy my culture, and I view myself reading Japanese books and watching Japanese movies/television in the same way, just someone enjoying a different culture.

Most of what she is saying is not really people misunderstanding asian culture, but rather taking part in a completely separate culture, that of weaboo/otakus, whose members usually know perfectly well that's it's not a representation of asians.

I am pretty sure that I see a good deal of 大和魂 within the "weaboo culture", after all if it's Japanese people making things then their culture will seep into it. Nothing odd about that. I don't think anime reflects Chinese, Korean, etc cultures though.
Yes, social justice warriors constantly accused me of being chikan just because I think third wave feminism is retarded.
SJW's will bully regardless of nationality or ethnicity.

I got bullied for being doutei once they kept insisting I go fuck a whore (with a gomu) because they're so readily available that I shouldn't have a reason not to felt bad man
the trains are so expensive, 10k for a 2h ride, huh?
Can I buy a ticket for the next stop and then gaijin smash my way at the destination? does that still work? I can speak Polish when they spot me so they can't try to use their best English
