Being is the present participle of verb 'be' it is used to express a continuous form.
"This isn't being very nice" is a present participle tense where you're saying someone is not treating you nice
"This isn't very nice" is simple present where you're saying something isn't nice in general

Being 는 isn't 이고 여기에는 이미 동사 is not 가 포함되어 있으므로 to be를 사용하지 않으므로 두 번 사용할 필요가 없습니다.
