no it wouldn't because that is a generalisation this isn't, it focuses specifically on one man

The reason he included the epicanthic fold was that he is rich enough to do so. It's nothing to do with racism, it's vanity. He wants people to like his costume and him.

Racism my arse

It is quiet funny he has dressed up as other races for years in his comedy shows but when he does an evil dictator for Halloween people are fuming.

That make up is very expensive and 9999/10000 people can't afford it

Not really. Little Britain and Come Fly with Me were constantly under fire for their racially insensitive stereotyping at the time they aired. I remember all of the backlash over them dressing as Thai women. So much so Matt Lucas even commented recently that he regrets it.

Yes because THAT'S clearly the issue here.

However you'd be surprised at the quality when it comes to affordable costumes and make-up. I saw many zombies in town last week that looked like they'd just come off the set of Walking Dead. But that's not really the issue.

No. So I don't see why Asian eyes would either.
Or spray tan, because that's making people look Brown.

Isabell from Big brother is a massive racsist because she's always Browning up. I can't believe all those people voted for a racsist.

Nicole Scherzinger went as Cleopatra, how dare she culturally appropriate an Egyptian ruler?

Yeah because a sun tan is blackface. Everyone with a tan is doing so to mimic black people.

Do you ever get tired of making stupid comments?

Yeah let's ignore the history associated with blacking up to ridicule and humiliate a race and just make their suffering insignificant with pathetic attempts at wit.

Try again.

I hope you're saving all this material for the book.
