Didn't vote for him nor do I plan to but I'm going to give him a pass on this. People are too sensitive. What if some non black kid really likes Black Panther, is he not allowed to wear the costume to go trick or treating? Is someone going to get pissed at my Gingy from Shrek costume? LOL

His costume isn't even historically accurate, Aladdin was Chinese before Hollywood turned him middle eastern.

BAHAHAHAAAA!!!
Scheer calling for resignation? I can't believe people are actually taking this seriously. It's a costume. Get over yourselves. Maybe focus on shit that actually matters.

First time i ever saw that movie i had no idea it was Downey. Until i saw the credits at the end. I was completely blown away. Just an amazing performance. So no. Downey should never apologize for that masterpiece.
God forbid they ever take comedy from us. Just about the only thing keeping people sane anymore.
Now I'm gonna go watch White Chicks and laugh hysterically at some Wayans brothers being overtly racist :fullofwin:

I really don't care, but it is humerous seeing the cancel culture folks being hypocrites over this.
Look at this photograph

whitev70r 09-18-2019 07:43 PM

Well ... JT was very quick to apologize, if he didn't think it was a big deal, he wouldn't (eg. SNC Lavalin). He could have held his ground and said I was trying to save jobs by putting on brown face costume.

Or, he could have used that other line, "I've been reflecting very carefully on what I remember from that incident almost 20 years ago and again, I am ... I feel I am confident that I did not act inappropriately."

Sorry kids, can't paint yourselves green to go as ninja turtles for Halloween.

The real shock for me was that Les Grossman was Tom Cruise.

Can't believe I left out White Chicks.

I was just perusing the Google critic comments and it is a treasure trove of pure gold!

It's just amazing you know? The complexities of the movie and its meanings is just beyond us. It is well beyond its time. For example, Terry Crews represents that one guy that is always there for you. That's just one of the BILLIONS of deep meanings and messages of the movie.

I don't understand why critics gave this such a low rating. The movie should be at least 11/10 in IMDb, 100% in Rotten Tomatoes, and 100% in Metacritic. Anything otherwise is just wrong. <3
:lol

The association for oppressed Oompa Loompas forced into slavery at the chocolate factory would like to have a word with you.......

Anyone know what the rules are for a Michael Jackson themed party?

The Left was warned, when they odopted identity politics and cancel culture in attempts to seize power, that their opposition would use those same tactics against them.
While there may be some who are actually morally outraged by these latest developements, most seem to be just flipping the playbook to hold Trudeau and his ilk to their own standards.

Ezra Levant@ezralevant
You know what's actually more racist than Trudeau wearing blackface?

Worse than him doing so twice?

Trudeau bragging to the media that he deliberately chose to cut an Aboriginal man's hair in order to humiliate him.

Quote:

“He resisted back a little bit, you know, pointing out that hair has a cultural significance for First Nations peoples, and I said ‘I know. That’s why I proposed it’. When a warrior cuts his hair, it’s a sign of shame, so it’s very apropos.” Justin Trudeau

Another one?

If you were OK with it, it really doesn't matter if it is 1 or 2, or 3 or 10 times. But that guy sure likes his costumes!


vitaminG 09-19-2019 06:36 AM

It's going to be very interesting to hear what he says about this

Fat shaming? Might want to delete if you ever intend on running for office. If not, no worries, leave it there.

MG1 09-19-2019 07:50 AM

But is he black where it counts?

!LittleDragon 09-19-2019 07:53 AM

Maybe he was touring a chocolate factory and fell in the chocolate?

I just think dude commits to his costume parties haha

nabs 09-19-2019 08:57 AM

Yeah, the dude was a drama teacher, definitely committed, he could have spun it in a way of him appreciating the culture somehow? He even painted his hands I noticed on some of the pics.

I think just like the majority of you guys where it's not going to change the way I vote (btw. not voting liberal), and it shouldn't matter.

I'm wondering where these photos were during the last election cycle, or how much he paid to keep these suppressed during the last election cycle.

Spoon 09-19-2019 09:24 AM

Where's the yellowfaces? Chinese population being overlooked again. :suspicious:
