    Why not blackface on a meme about black people? It’s literally just that. These examples are literally just that.

    It seems silly but when you’re part of the ignored minorities such as Asians, Indians, or Arabs etc. and everyone thinks picking on you, on how you sound like, on what you wear will make for a good joke; it really makes you uncomfortable.

    Really, it’s not funny. It just makes us feel more ostracized.

      If you think blackface and photoshopping a fez onto a stock image character are the same then you are so deranged that you’re beyond reasoning with.

        I think it’s a bit unfair to call them deranged, but I agree with the sentiment that they are vastly different.
