That’s the racist credo alright.
Dude, you are in no position to criticize others of not being able to find their asses with both hands.
This, for example, among all the stupid defensive bullshit definitions of racism I’ve read today, is the stupidest.
Looks up at the bananas sitting on top of his flat head. :rolleyes:
That’s not what I picture when I hear the word “pronging.”
Okay, I’m not with the OP but I am going to ask questions. 
I wonder if it’s the traditional BF that offends people, or is it BF in general?
Let’s say SNL did a skit with two white actors portraying black people. But instead of the crude method they used years ago, they had a professional make up team come in and make them look black. As in, did such a fine job you probably wouldn’t know they were actually white had you not been privy otherwise.
I’m curious as to whether this would offend most people’s sensibilities.
I don’t think he even rises to the level of boring.
Dude, you’re the one who showed up with empty hands. Maybe use a funnel next time.
Where are you posting from, fucking Mars? You get the other cultural references on SNL, but don’t have a clue about blackface? Not credible.
Eh, you’d have to try it and see. I think people’s reactions would hinge on the content of the script, but you would butt up against conflicting ends of the scale - either the screenplay is racially motivated, which will stir controversy, or it’s nonracial, in which event why change the actors’ race at all.
The historical problem with blackface is real, but even if it’s done in a “tactful” manner you’re irritating some because it’s viewed as a barrier keeping minority actors from getting work.
The OP isn’t American but wants to take Americans to task for an American social problem that isn’t considered as much a problem outside America?
Seriously? That’s a massive OP fail.
Here’s a hint: we’re more culturally diverse in the US than other countries. Just because you don’t see a problem in yours doesn’t mean it isn’t there nor does it mean it isn’t a problem in the US.
I’m fucking sick and tired of douchebag, asshole racism fest 2013. 
Funny you should mention that…
Mom Lets Son Wear KKK Halloween Costume, Says It’s A Family Tradition
Honestly I barely knew it was a thing, let alone one to get mad about, until I was in college. I vaguely recall it getting a sentence or two in a high school history book. It just wasn’t something I thought about much until there was a big to-do about it one Halloween at my college.
And I spent my early years in PA and TX.
Then you learned about it a good 45 years quicker than the OP.
Is it really something that comes up much these days?
Yes. It comes up on the news pretty regularly when some frat boys or others do it (as in the case mentioned in the OP).
No, because people know better. That’s why it’s somewhat shocking when it does pop up.
But there’s a difference between your experience, i.e. “I didn’t know some people found it offensive” and “It’s not a big deal, you should lighten up”, which is the OPs point.
We don’t get to decide for other people what they find offensive, nor, as members of groups who historically did denigrate them, should we think we should have that right, as the OP does.
I think that devoid of the historical context, the OP’s reaction is not surprising. Considering I’ve had exactly 2 conversations about the matter my entire life, one today and one ~10 years ago, and maybe noticed a news article or two in the interim, I’d expect anyone who has spent most of their time outside of the US to have a similar reaction.
Doesn’t mean the OP isn’t a tool, though.
I don’t believe for a second that the OP is as naive about the issue as he pretends to be.
I guess, but it wouldn’t be my reaction.
Mine would be closer to “I’m sorry I didn’t realize this was a touchy subject, and I’ll avoid it in future”.
The OPs was “You stupid assholes. Why so serious?”
There’s understandable and then there’s being an unrepentant ass.
ETA: And yeah, I seriously doubt the OP is as innocent as claimed. Posting history isn’t flattering.
I don’t know how familiar you are with US pop culture, but we have witnessed instances of white people “dressing up” as black people and no one being offended. There were no protests when Darryl Hammond darkened his face to look like Jesse Jackson all those years on SNL. Or when Dan Akryod and Gene Wilder went “black” in their films.
There s a big difference between “blackface” and “thoughtfully applying make-up to one’s face to resemble a medium to dark complected person.”
