    Appropriating superficial physical characteristics and deplorable personas to create a derogatory stereotype.

    This isn't what blackface is, so I don't know if you're trying to explain how this doesn't apply or it does.

      This isn’t what blackface is

      It's literally putting grease paint, fake lips, and kinky hair on your head.

        Which means nothing without the context of the behavior and the culture from which it springs and what it is intended to achieve.

        It's a bad term to invoke, man, just drop the parallel and your argument can stand fine on its own.
