Sometimes it is absolutely reasonable to take offense. Black face is probably one of those times. I think you're the one missing the point. Also, wearing a piece of clothing isn't the same as "shitting on their culture", at all. Crazy how stating obvious truth can be considered an edgelord take lmao. Think better man.
You can see this idiotic take above, you're not having this conversation in good faith if you're representing it as "wearing a piece of clothing". Black face is just "putting paint on your face" why is that reasonable to take offense to? Do you know the history of headdresses or are you just being contradictory for no reason?
I think it's probably reasonable to take offense to black face because I'm pretty sure it's always done with the intention to mock people. With headdresses I don't think that applies at all. But no, I don't know the history of headdresses, and I could be wrong. Both things still aren't inherently offensive, and cultural appropriation is still a bullshit concept.
Look all I'm gonna say is you're out here calling people dimwits and you're "pretty sure" of x and "don't know the history" of y so maybe try educating yourself a little bit before throwing those stones in that glass house.
If you take the concept of cultural appropriation seriously you are a dimwit. Knowing 'the history' of a specific piece of clothing does not change that.
