Are the characters they're cosplaying originally black?
Why can’t they just wear masks
In a vacuum this probably doesn’t amount to anything but people should just avoid black face-paint altogether if they can help it to avoid any controversy
Imagine thinking anybody cares about what 100 jobless aunties on twitter think
it's not but they're too rich to not be able to get a mask
This isnt blackface if the intention for painting their face isnt to reproduce a black colored skin.
Here they just wanted to reproduce a black mask (i dont know why they didnt just use masks tho, would have been easier for them but well).
Butch, isn’t blackface just painting your face black
Right precisely, the reason they did it is to be funny.

No it’s not.
It’s racially imitating black people by painting your face black.
This user looks like a classic troll trying to belittle serious racial issue. I’d rather MODs close this one before AKP takes it as an invitation to be racist and start talking about how blackface “isn’t even a big deal” and an “American” issue with their whole chests.

I don't know if you're joking, but blackface goes back to when black people weren't allowed on stages or in movies, so white people wore black paint to 'play' black characters, often playing them with incredibly racist and harmful stereotypes ( lazy, poor, rapists, criminals etc... ).
Blackface is the process of a non-black people painting their face black with the intent to play/imitate a black person.
If you would like some ressources about it, I can provide them.

Okay I see, thanks.
I can do my own research tbh. I am only asking because there was recently a Chinese fashion show where the models face were painted black and it was considered as blackface. So yea.. the definition seems to not be as stringent from akp users pov I guess
