So is it… is it okay that they bought four cloisters and reconstructed them in the US? The europeans also „bought“ a lot of art in foreign colonial countries and brought it to Europe…

I’d say the difference in this case is it was truly bought. US colonialism is an issue, but not from anywhere these came from. Its just not on the same category as the stuff in the British museum, for instance. Plus, it’s not like the countries of origin haven’t had their own Rockefellers then and since.
