Not surprising that a non-black would get fed up with the whole
"blackface" thing, since it's no threat to you. But I'm more concerned
with your dismissive use of the word "thing."

What kind of threat is it to anybody to put on some makeup?

It's a devaluation of the target's ethnicity and personhood, which can
result in actual harm in complex ways.

If I were to put on brown makeup, which specific target would be actually
harmed? A billion brown people who don't know I exist?
