Yeah he wasn't in black-face that character was what used to be called a wigger. Which is what made it all the more funny. I'm not defending his actions at the recent pro gun rally. I'm just delivering the facts.
No, I'm saying the character is funny because the absurdity of wiggers going around acting black and adopting black culture was the premise. He is making fun of whites who act black. That subtlety went over your head and you are equating it with black face.
I'm all for holding the left to the rules they enforce on us (cancel culture). This, however, is not one of those instances.
I like the meme and think it is effective pointing out his hypocrisy but would leave out the accusation of black-face. I would put "Hypocrites who got famous with characters like this don't have a leg to stand on calling other people racist". Something along those lines.
This man has made his entire career out of racist caricatures. I've laughed at his bits too but now he's attacking America with his "comedy".
He didn't "gotcha" anyone at the recent rally, he placed extras in the crowd to cheer him on, and his goons delayed his removal from the stage. Now the news media gets to claim the rally goers were racist.
That subtlety went over your head and you are equating it with black face.
I used to watch Ali G and it wasn't always clear that he's just playing the bit you claim. It was ambiguous so he could get away with more. The character twitter is @ali_g_nigga. He actually did use darkening techniques back in the day between makeup and lighting. He drops the n bomb while as you put it pretending to be a white guy pretending to be a black guy.
This is absolutely a violation of the left's rules and if he's going to attack us we need to call him on it.
I agree, hold his feet to the fire but I don't think its ambiguous at all his whole posse was white, from a white area in Staines. His grandmother is white (in the movie). It was absolutely clear that Ali-g was a wigger, it just wasn't blackface. To be honest, I doubt the people you're trying to convince on the left will care about the nuances and that it would be enough to spark the outrage you desire. I was just pointing out the difference incase you care about being correct and offering suggestions how to go about it.Trying to hone the accuracy of the meme so that its more effective.
doesn't matter. they call it blackface if someone just acts black. so even without makeup, he was 'culturally apropriating' or whatever the fuck they call it, with the purpose of making fun of that culture, or whatever. it is what it is. he dressed up like some retard rapper to be funny. this is their standards, and by that standard he should be cancelled for it.
nah dude, you had a point. the guy was dressing up like a retard rapper type for comedic purposes. i've seen the left call stuff blackface even if makeup wasn't involved. this clown should be held to their standards since he's one of them.

This is true. Thanks for saying so. Gotta keep the memes on point.
So define what a wigger is.
Copy pasta from urban dictionary:
wiggers
a white nigga
a white person who thinks they are black.
Examples would include Slim Shady and the old shitty band House of Pain etc.
So you're saying he went in white face dropping the n word while pretending to be black and that makes it okay?
I guess Jimmy Kimmel didn't do blackface either, he just dressed up as Karl Malone.

Shaun King
This motherfucker has been culturally appropriating blacks since the 90's.
Time is ripe for him to repatriate those ill-earned funds to inner city charities!
Not true, they use light makeup and lighting for effect. Just look at any of his other work. He's a pale jewish guy.
Jews have 'fro's too but I don't think that's his.
LEL, I missed the reference.
Great Success?

That's not blackface. That's a Shaun King cosplay.
He's trying to smash Rachael Dolezal.
Also, Jimmy Kimmel wasn't really in blackface, he was just dressed as Karl Malone.
I guess it is kind of boomer tier. But I had a serious point to make...
Thanks bro!

Is that Shaun King?
