Why and or how is this offensive? I've given up trying to understand why people supposedly get offended over shit like this, so I'm just going to ask because I'm not going to waste brain power on this shit. I seriously, 100%, don't get it..... Two people dress up like an indian and a pilgrim and a bunch of other people lose their shit over it. How?

Indians/Native Americans probably feel like it's white people wearing their culture as a costume. Being a costume may degrade their culture or sacredness of it. Especially in a pretty white dominated country as is.

With that said, I'm a pretty big believer in ignoring this type of shit. It only causes more division every time it's in the media or on Facebook being shared viral a million times. Fuck it. Rage on.

What if a black dude dressed up like Samuel Adams during Halloween? Offensive?

Why do I have to give two shits what someone elses "perspectives and experiences" happen to be if they are also just stupid individuals with gigantic pie holes and sensitive feelings?

OTPOTPOTPYT, I am not trying to be an ass. Promise. I am 100% not understanding how this could possibly be offensive to someone to the extent that these people need to make a fucking public apology for this. This is nuts. Political correctness has gone passed insane into looney tunes territory. This is a fucking costume, on Halloween. Ya know, when people dress up as shit that they are NOT in real life.

Red face is to Native Americans as black face is to African Americans....Also the "feathers" dude is sporting are supposed to be I assume the ceremonial war feathers of certain tribes, pretty sacred in their cultures. Again, I am a white bread so I wouldn't know about such things.

What is offensive to me is that the photographer missed a great shot at the skirt and legs of the pilgrim, and also more of the tight full bodied outfit the skank on the right is wearing. I draw the line at shitty non-offensive photography when the opportunity for so much more presents itself.

So? At what point do your feelings become my fucking problem? If your feelings actually ARE my fucking problem, then at what point do my feelings become YOUR fucking problem? If everything needs to be so equal, should all our feelings = each other feelings? How do you get to claim the "feelings higher ground" when all I wanna do is go out with my girl and party on Halloween and take a pic and post it on the innernets when all you wanna do is sit at home and look at the innernets and get pissed at pictures on the innernets? This shit is fucking stupid. And people that fucking legitimize this shit through this incredibly idiotic rationalization of any of this shit are fucking stupid.

But we're totally cool with objectifying pieces of ass in our society..... Even though probably none of us have ever actually crossed paths with a full blooded native 'merican in our lifetime.... kay.....(Queue the, I seen one of them injun guys last week at my family reunion, and I'm like 4.8% Chief Walking Bull Shit's great, great, great grandson, guy)

I know you wouldn't. I get that. No offense then, but quit being a tough guy about people's feelings and not caring about them. I guess it's best to think of shit that way instead of whether or not your hurting someone's feelings. If you wouldn't wear a costume somewhere that would get your ass kicked don't be a pussy and wear it where it wouldn't get your ass kicked. Simple rule.

So dressing up as Tonto is the same as dressing up as a KKK Grand Wizard in your world. Fucking strange.

I also love when you pull the, "stop being a tough guy, cuz you ain't" shit on the internet. So fucking BOSS!!!!!

Who said it's the same and when did I say I gave a fuck what costume anyone wears? I'm not claiming to be a tough guy, I'm only telling you a rule that I think is simple. If you don't agree with the rule, the fuck do we care? I'm no bad ass. I just follow that. If I wouldn't grab girls by the pussy when I'm living my life I wouldn't do it as a star. If I wouldn't use the "R" word around mentally challenged people's parents I won't use it around friends. If I wouldn't tell a joke using the "N" word around black guys, I wouldn't around a bunch of white guys.

Not being a boss or telling people not to go to parties dressed like the fuck they want. I'm for them doing it. It's America. I support them and am against those who would try to stop them. You got my question wrong tTy. I'm with you. But maybe we're implying the pussies are the ones with hurt feelings when we should be implying the pussies are those who would not do the same thing 100% of the time because they really are afraid of either offending someone or getting their ass kicked.

Not a boss. Don't give a fuck what you wear.

Sticking specifically to the picture in the OP, it doesn't seem egregious to me. He's not in red face, he's just got red war paint over his eyes. Far from the full Al Jolson. I don't know the significance of the head dress, maybe it is a sacred garment or something, but I don't even understand the concept of a sacred garment, frankly. Seems like absolute nonsense to me, but then I'm the sort of person who thinks getting upset about people burning flags is fucking ridiculous too.

To me, this instance would be analogous to a white guy wearing samurai armor as a costume. Sure he hasn't "earned" the right to wear the outfit in real life, but he's not wearing it in fucking June, is he? Plus his date is wearing a pilgrim outfit rather than a cowboy outfit, which only helps his case in my opinion.

The problem is that everyone is looking for something to be offended by these days. It is ridiculous. tTy you are on to it with your "feelings" comments. Everyone thinks you can never hurt anyone's feelings. "Don't buy veal, your hurt someone's feelings." "Don't pass that care on a two-lane road, you might hurt the driver's feelings." We live in a world where everyone's feelings are paramount and no one should ever suffer hurt feelings.

It's stupid.

And Dwags is the biggest internet tough guy on this board. LOL That he called you out for it is as hypocritical as they come.
