Looked up Robert Downey jr. Found Tropicthunder which I assume is what you’re talking about. The context between that and the Trudeau photo seems so far apart that it’s a meaningless comparison. Trudeau did blackface himself as himself because he thought it was funny and he’s a racist. Robert Downey appears to have done it as a commentary on doing it as part of a movie, I feel it was still definitely in bad taste but not at all comparable to if he just went to a party in blackface.
Yes I think a person doing blackface at a party and an actor playing a character doing blackface as a commentary on those who do are different. I think the second is still in poor taste but it is categorically different.
I kind of pity you guys, you have such a pinhole range of political understanding that you can only assume your opponents are the inverse of you. Like a feudal peasant who thinks that the communist revolutionary simply serves a different king, unable to comprehend what you’re even looking at. You’re like the political version of one of those Christian “science is actually just another religion when you think about it” people.
Why should I care or you care about that in this context? Does he have power to bomb Palestine or something? Does he fund zionist organizations? I don’t know. If he does, that’s pretty shitty. His co-star has made statements in support of Palestine and against genocide, so maybe he is a zionist, but again that’s pretty inconsequential compared to being the leader of a country sending lethal aid to Israel.
“Oh what, just because he wears blackface and presided over a government that dissapears indigenous people, pushes euthanasia on depressed and disabled people, spent the 20th century importing ex-nazis and supports an ongoing genocide of brown people, you SJWs think he’s some kind of racist?”
I authorize any of the resistances forces to use lethal violence against any and all zionists. This is what international law says in the UN charter. The occupied have a legal right to armed resistance against their occupiers.
I think RDJ is likely a fairly low priority target in the fight against zionazis, but I trust the resistance forces judgement on that one.
So what are your thoughts on Robert Downey jr?

So you think a drama teacher playing a character at a costume party and an actor choosing a role is different somehow?
Yes I think a person doing blackface at a party and an actor playing a character doing blackface as a commentary on those who do are different. I think the second is still in poor taste but it is categorically different.
That implies you have some sort of insight into Trudeau’s intent so can you share how you acquired that?
Mostly from his “apology” and how he lied about how many times he did it and his excuse was he didn’t know it was wrong when he did it.
Always the .world weirdos bending over backwards to defend blackface, zionism, nazis and empire
I think it’s only because I’m defending the ‘wrong’ empire.
Also all journalists should be protected even if you disagree with their beliefs.

I think capitalism is a better economic model than communism and most economists agree with me.
who said anything about journalists?
why would anyone give a shit about a marvel actor?
WTF, does he have nukes or something? Do you think he’s actually IronMan? Don’t hurt your back with that hasbara reach.
Do you think he’s racist?
The answer is yes btw.

Because of the picture you choose to prove that Trudeau is a racist.
“Oh what, just because he wears blackface and presided over a government that dissapears indigenous people, pushes euthanasia on depressed and disabled people, spent the 20th century importing ex-nazis and supports an ongoing genocide of brown people, you SJWs think he’s some kind of racist?”
oh no! the quote that is from 2025 is worth ignoring because I used a picture from 2001 in a meme, darn that sucks! How does time work?
The quote is worth mentioning but using the picture and being okay with RDJ doing the same thing is kind of hypocritical.
I authorize any of the resistances forces to use lethal violence against any and all zionists. This is what international law says in the UN charter. The occupied have a legal right to armed resistance against their occupiers.
I think RDJ is likely a fairly low priority target in the fight against zionazis, but I trust the resistance forces judgement on that one.
I’m saying that the picture isn’t making the point you think it is but it seems nuance is lost on you.
