If PM Trudeau is politically incorrect for wearing brown face at a costume party and Gov. Northam was a pc offender for a black face photo, how about all the other face color occurrences we encounter every day ? Have we become super sensitive to all our beautiful colors of skin which are applied for fun or out of envy for those of other skin shades ?
How about the fellows I saw in Vegas a few years ago in blue face or the Australian aborigines who powder their faces in white ? How about the Broadway and Hollywood stars who smear rainbows of colors on their mugs to look like monsters or superheroes ? How about the movie legends of the past who wore black face and white face ? How about the millions of early summer beach/sun fanatics who become painfully red faced ? How about the football players who smear black streaks on their faces pre-game ? How about the millions of children and grownup kids who will apply sparkly and bright face paint to enhance their Halloween costumes and make believe persona's ?
Are all these people politically incorrect, racists or insensitive ?
Seems to me some people are desperate for attention and too sensitive to any departure from their politically correct mindset therefore any paint facing becomes a high crime. In fifty or a hundred years will some candidate for public office be disqualified because they dressed up as a green alien as a child and by then we discover there really are green aliens on planet xy3 ?
The nonsense and outrage about the portrayal of skin color by those of different skin tones is silly. In my opinion, considering the great challenges and opportunities mankind faces, it is a waste of energy and time to worry about ones real or make believe skin color.
