Ugh, US-centric "social justice" is so infuriatingly juvenile.

Blackface, as an offensive parody of what black people are supposed to look like, was/continues to be a thing WORLDWIDE. It is not only in America.

"Making your skin darker in any way shape or form" is not blackface. Blackface is a specific thing with specific roots, and diluting it the way you're doing is an insult to the legacy that actual people have lived.

Right, and as I said, BLACKFACE happened/still happens worldwide.

And even "just" darkening your skin still offends people outside of the US. It's not just African Americans that see it and think you're a racist douchebag.
