  • Not an American, I would guess that blackface in particular looks more like a roughly made mock. And then I can see why mocking others based on skin colour can be seen as racist.

    I would say that tanning usually looks more natural (even in failed cases), that’s why it would not be seen as racism, in worst case it would look like a person made a laughing stock of themselves in case of poorly applied tanner.

    Then again, it is still just a guess, as I am not from the US





  • On these I would’ve guessed only 1 or 1+2, but since you said that the photos in the post were shot on the iPhone, and there is a preview that shows that the third is a photo from the post, I expect that I’m wrong.

    But yes, the third zoom-in is what I expect to see on a low postprocessing camera, and the first photo is more or less what I imagine from a high postprocessing camera.


  • Still, that’s very apparent on large ad posters Apple used to make “shot with an iPhone”, a zoomed in photo looks like it consists of irregular patches of solid colour, not pixels. That’s what I called upscaling, that’s what my old Honour used to do to photos when it fell flat on actually capturing the details, and maybe that’s what others meant, too.






  • Unfortunately, it’s possible if the project is small. Also, even if it’s big, people will be left with clones in different states and of different times, and it will require some coordination to put everything in order again.

    So to sum up, people will be forced to waste time, which also may be the goal ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
