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.


Sweet Jesus... Do you buy your Kool-Aid by the tanker? I definitely feel threatened when black people conk their hair and slather on skin lightener.

ROFLMAO!
