Reading is fundamental, fools
- What was actually said: White people, don't darken yourselves for cosplay.
- What was interpreted: White people shouldn't cosplay.
- What was actually said: White people, you can cosplay whomever you want, but if the character is brown, DON'T darken yourselves for the cosplay.
- What was interpreted: White people shouldn't cosplay.
- What was actually said: White people, if you're so pressed to have your skin match the character in cosplay, then cosplay one of the countless pale characters that are out there already, instead of picking one of the FEW brown characters and then darkening yourselves.
- What was interpreted: White people shouldn't cosplay.
- What was actually said: White people, brown-skinned PoC are NOT changing/lightening their skin for cosplay and they STILL look like the characters. DON'T darken yourselves for cosplay.
- What was interpreted: White people shouldn't cosplay.
- What was actually said: PoC who are brown get crap for cosplaying pale characters all the time, so white people, WHY are you darkening yourselves for cosplay and painting yourselves brown when actual brown people get crap for being brown? Stop doing that.
- What was interpreted: White people shouldn't cosplay.
- What was actually said: White people, STOP PAINTING YOURSELVES BROWN FOR COSPLAY. You only have to dress as the character. Stop treating brown skin as an accessory.
- What was interpreted: White people shouldn't cosplay.
- What was actually said: Darkening your skin for cosplay is BAD. Stop doing it.
- What was interpreted: White people shouldn't cosplay.
