Makes no sense. It seems there are too many people looking for problems where there aren’t any. Shameful

You know what they say, "When you're a hammer, everything looks like a nail" 🔨

@michaeljknowles Of all the things to get upset about, we’re choosing a Halloween costume Stay distracted, y’all

Pretty easy to tell. They used a black for the model. That's what made it rasis...

It ain’t. 🤷♂️

The orange clown suit was declared racist because black boys bought it. Does this mean only white boys can be clowns? In America, clowns have been around as professional entertainers since the 1870s when the post-Civil War circuses became famous. Clown faces are copyrighted, so a professional entertainer can become famous for his face. Halloween is famous for its cosplay. In short, Target is stupid.

I am not primed to look for racist imagery, so I saw something that would fit into Burton's Halloween Town in Nightmare Before Christmas.

You've seriously never heard of minstrel shows?

You forgot to mention the ugly mask which is a crime in and of itself. You also know that that pattern fabric has long been equated with jesters or "fools" and carnival clowns. I think you overlooked quite a bit. If not ment to be racist, it was at least in poor taste. The pose was the least of it. Someone dropped the ball on this costume for sure. Just my 2 🪙.

Woke 2.0 sure seems a lot like woke 1.0

It reminds me a little of the SNL "invisible pedestrian" costume.

@michaeljknowles Clearly blackface. The model knew the assignment. Its racist but that’s what makes it funny. Otherwise it would just be a goober in a clown suit. I can see it and their fake offense belittles its genius. He’s just a Disney animator trying to sneak hidden dicks passed the editors

Woke was never gone. Gov't offices controlled by Conservatives/Centrists removed DEI & required their respective businesses suppliers to state they were no longer using DEI, but all the others just kept it up. And those claiming they don't but have liberal controllers? STILL DEI!

@michaeljknowles What is this our Lindsay Graham getting prepped to greet our beloved Dolly Parton hoping to use his Senator status on earth to jump the greeting line !

I don't even know what it's supposed to be.
