The issues largely is how it look; straight off the bat, it look like blackfacing without the context.
I'm sorry but I really disagree. It looks, to me, like someone with fake tan on.
No one that has jumped on the bandwagon of ripping into the guy has offered any proof that the fake tan was even related to the costume. Maybe the guy just likes fake tan.
I'd like to echo the sentiments that have already been aired that picking on the Del Monte costume wearer is only distracting things away from the guy who definitely is doing blackface plus the other dodgy costume wearers.
I'd even go further and say that it undermines the entire thread as it looks like we are now searching around for the scraps of something to be outraged about.

Do you really need to put fake tan to portray a character?
