Why or why not if "blackface" is clearly forbidden?
If, IF, white face was done all the time and for the purpose of demeaning white people as if they were buffoons for laughing at, then yes it would be demeaning. Whats your point? The "Karen" stereotype is a form of whiteface. Caricatures of "whiteness" are done all the time.
Media has eliminated "blackface" to protect the sensibilities of black people. My point is that's bullshit.
Do blackface. Do whiteface. No group is above critique.
I would just like a rational explanation why "blackface" is taboo?
And yes, I know that black people have endured much more oppression than any other minority and that includes queer folks. I don't give a fuck. In a nation which prizes free speech, blackface is an acceptable form of satire.
