Tolerance of racist ideas isn’t really less racist. Asserting that no one was offended over this costume back in the day is a pretty bad take and just isn’t true.
I agree with what I think you’re saying. Idk if this guy wearing black face means he’s racist. It’s just him participating in the cultural phenomenon of OJ in a way he doesn’t realize is super incentive.
The thing is, the same guy today would not have put on black face. Because today, people who do this would be fired from their jobs, because it’s racist to put on black face and in today’s less racist society, you’re more likely to be punished for being racist.

I never got offended watching the movie White Girls
And I’m very proud of you for doing that.
