I shall explain in simpler terms.

 

If making a yellow person black with make-up is offensive.

Then shouldn't making a yellow person white with make-up be equally offensive ?

 

Oh no, white people don't get offended as easily as black people..

 

Although it isnt black people getting offended

It is white people getting offended on their behalf

Yes unless they're calling white people "farang" or dual charging in which case it's "racism".

Hey, it's only bad if it's bad for me.

Considering that dual pricing isnt done on racial grounds, I cannot see how it can be classified as racism .

It's nothing to do with people getting offended, it's to do with the use of a racist tradition.

 

Oh yeah, care to back that statement up with some proper research into who ''blackface'' offends?

Could you just clarify :

Do you feel that blackface has racist traditions ?

Although I have read all your posts in this thread and nearly every single post  says it is, I just want to make sure what you think about this

Now, now, I understand that you need time to get your research together, so take your time, don't hurry.

 

I do look forward to reading it though...
