What does she mean by deculture?

It's surprisingly hard to describe but it's a made up adjective from the anime series Macross.
It's what the warmongering aliens say when they experience the "culture" of Earth for the first
time, at first as an exclamation of disgust, but then as they become addicted to the cultural
products of humanity and gradually assimilate with human spacefaring society, it becomes
reclaimed as a positive adjective.

The best definition I have seen for deculture is "(it is) shocking/surprising," thus making it
positive or negative depending on context.

No. She's obviously not saying the chinese restaurant in the commercial is "degenerate," right?
"Expression of shock/surprise" is as good a definition as any, I guess, like that other anon
said. Like I guess it's just a "hip" way to say "wow, such culture."
