Bro could have been michael jackson without blackface and he still decided to do it 😭

Was it Jackson 5 era MJ?

Edit: I'm being passed a note. Apparently that isn't a great reason for blackface either.

Lawler was trying to do Thriller-era MJ, which was before the vitiligo/lupus really started to hit him hard.

personally, if I was a party operative, fixer, or machine boss, I would go ahead and find out if there could possibly be any photo of a prospective candidate in blackface. and if it was possible, I would deny them access to the ticket.

I really don't get how this continues to happen. like I was an adult in 2006 and "let's go to the party in blackface" was not a thing people were doing.

The nepo babies and other elites in their ivory towers are terrible people, it's not really surprising. They can't fix the symptom without fixing the problem (ie getting rid of themselves and their racist, murderous, hideous system) lol

If they did that they wouldn't have any candidates left to run

There's no screening process for candidates like in Europe lol

Looking for that PM of Canada gig I see.

Every year, every October, either we get an instance of this or a story with an instance of this that happened before

I'd say that politicians seem to be have a much higher than average chance to have done black face, but i think its just a cracker thing anti-cracker-aktion

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Most crackers don’t have people digging up pictures from a party they went to 20 years ago. This is average cracker racism

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

all Lawler needs to do is say the picture was leaked by Iran and NYT will immediately apologize, retract the story, and fire some low-level staff

Could've just been late period MJ, but had to put on shoeshine for the love of the game.

Dude didn't even bother to get a wig. Really a bad effort all around.
