And regardless of whether you "understand," what you said about not being offended by whiteface is an extremely common and cliche` response from white people. It is not only embedded in personal opinion but also embedded in white privilege. It is an overall pattern beyond a personal preference.

Thanks for not lumping me in with the idiots.
I know I can never really live what nonwhite people have lived, but I do make an effort to be as empathetic to others as possible.
ETA: Just read the trainwreck that happened after my post this morning. If I recall, I believe DrPhil posted earlier in this thread that whiteface is not OK, which was what prompted my statement about how it wouldn't bother me.
