legendary_zell 09/19/19 11:16:00 AM #129:	This was in 2001. He was older than I am now. It must have taken quite a while to put all of that on his face and hands. During that whole time, he never thought "this is a bad look"? Apparently not, because he's cheesing for the camera like it's such a cool thing. The thing that gets me is that it takes no effort at all not to do brownface or blackface. He could have just worn a costume. The brownface isn't really even adding anything, other than creepiness. It actually takes significantly more effort to do it. So why do people feel this compulsion to wear any face? Is it because skin color is extremely important to them and so they feel costumes are incomplete without it? Can't dress up as a black guy without black skin? --- https://imgur.com/0Bi86cp <cite>legendary_zell posted [p:927656074] in Justin Tru... [t:78024309]...</cite> <quote>This was in 2001.

BeyondWalls 09/19/19 11:17:46 AM #130:	Sir Will posted... Somebody said it might be this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zwarte_Piet Zwarte Piet (pronounced [zrt pit]; English: Black Pete or Black Peter, Luxembourgish: Schwaarze Piter, Indonesian: Pit Hitam) is the companion of Saint Nicholas (Dutch: Sinterklaas, Luxembourgish: Kleeschen, Indonesian: Sinterklas) in the folklore of the Low Countries. The character first appeared in an 1850 book by Amsterdam schoolteacher Jan Schenkman. Traditionally, Zwarte Piet is black because he is a Moor from Spain.[1] Those portraying Zwarte Piet usually put on blackface make-up and colourful Renaissance attire, in addition to curly wigs and bright red lipstick. In recent years, the character has become the subject of controversy. So... not an excuse?

That's fine if that's the precedent that people want to set. The issue is when the shoe is on the other foot, it becomes hypocrisy and I cannot stand hypocrisy.

But what I've seen is that, when a target of this comes up and it's a conservative or Republican. They're getting raked through the coals and people want their careers over. That's fine if that's the precedent that people want to set. The issue is when the shoe is on the other foot, it becomes hypocrisy and I cannot stand hypocrisy. If you're going to destroy one person's life, you best be sure to maintain that standard to everyone. Even if it's someone you side with. </quote> ... Copied to Clipboard!

It must have taken quite a while to put all of that on his face and hands. During that whole time, he never thought "this is a bad look"? Apparently not, because he's cheesing for the camera like it's such a cool thing. The thing that gets me is that it takes no effort at all not to do brownface or blackface. He could have just worn a costume. The brownface isn't really even adding anything, other than creepiness. It actually takes significantly more effort to do it. So why do people feel this compulsion to wear any face? Is it because skin color is extremely important to them and so they feel costumes are incomplete without it? Can't dress up as a black guy without black skin? Hmm....the cynical part of me feels like he thought he could get away with it because he was portraying an Indian, not a black person. Back in 2001, only racism against black people got you in trouble. It's only recently people started paying attention to racism towards other races. >_> That probably has something to do with it. But at the same time, my perception is that the South Asian community is a much bigger player in Canada than it is here, so brownface is a worse idea there than here. I don't think liberals and the left should outsmart ourselves here though. This is a really dumb thing he did, but there doesn't appear to be malicious intent. It's different when someone has an independent history of racism or when something about the context indicates mockery. What Northam did is significantly worse than this.. But also, don't get yourself a right wing government that dismantles protections for the poor, women, minority groups, regulations, and environmental protections because this guy painted his face. That's when being woke takes you back around to effectively hurting people. --- https://imgur.com/0Bi86cp <cite>legendary_zell posted [p:927657050] in Justin Tru...
