Who are YOU to say that someone doesn't have a valid reason to get upset? When you call them sensitive, you are telling that person, "Ah, it is just a joke. You shouldn't catch feelings from that." WHo are YOU to determine that?

Just because you have no self respect for someone mocking your culture and heritage in front of you doesn't mean that someone else won't be taken aback by it. You're in no position to tell a Black person how to feel about a historically denigrating act.

theres a difference between a stereotype "existing" and a "stereotypical" black person
would you like to explain how the "stereotypical" black person fits into one of these "stereotypes"?
unless we're all fried chicken eatin watermelon loving magical negroes?
edit: and blackface isnt offensive merely because its a stereotype

This is a non issue. This was a legitimate attempt to recreate a celebrity with no malice or disrespect intended. People are SO quick to pull the race card.
He has on apparel that mimicks ye and is clearly not trying to play into any stereotypes.

There are instances where the race card is relevant, this is not one of them.
Dude is clearly not trying to degrade, misrepresent or shame our culture.
He's probably a ye fan and thought it would be cool.
Now if he just went as a "typical black dude" or "thug", we have a different conversation.
Yes, I'm well aware that dastardly, inhumane things were done in the past to belittle blacks and kill morale. While this is SIMILAR (yes I can acknowledge that) it is nowhere on the same category. I highly doubt he's trying to kill morale in present day African Americans.

I figured you'd be in here splitting hairs and up to your usual tricks. I don't feel like playing into your scheme and don't address me anymore in this thread.

Him having the balls to even go in black face says he doesn't respect Black people. I am not even sure how you don't see that. But we have different fundemental views on it so I will just fall back

a white person in black face pretending to be the "stereotypical" black person =/= this is what i think the average black person looks like and acts
do you have a hard time understanding most things or does this only happen when talking about race?

Hey @Methodical Management please take my admin title for not being outraged and actually wanting to get more details before crying about race.
DUDES MAD BECAUSE I DONT FEEL ITS RACIST? O MY! He has an opinion.....
At the end of the day, not all black people are offended. I told my BLACK wife about it and she thought it was pretty stupid that the race card is being pulled the way it is. I'm BLACK so it's an issue with me NOT being offended? Right.

What more details do you need? Someone is in black face? What context would make this acceptable? Serious question.
Nobody is saying you need to be mad. Hell, I don't think ANYONE in here is MAD. We just think it isn't right.
