Thats the 1/3 that voted for trumph....the 1/3 that doesnt graduate from high school.... The 1/3 that are red necks
So what about this? Should I as a blonde white woman take offense? Should Dennis Rodman here, be banned from movies or basketball because he dressed like a white woman? How come THIS is acceptable? Just more racism against directed at whites! Bravo!
Let guess, it's the same 1/3 that support trump.
Shitler celebrates Halloween 24/7 as Putins dummy;
Is it wrong that I'm more upset with a costume of a real person than what went into the costume? If someone paints themself green to be Piccollo from DragonBall no one gets mad.
Or put another way 66% of Americans believe blackface is not acceptable anymore even during Halloween.
Then 1/3 is racist. Simple math really
That's the 1/3 that kills Negroes everyday........EVERYDAY....YOU KNOW IT, TOO
It’s almost like is trying to protect the Democrat for actually wearing blackface but when Megan Kelly had only a debate about it.... she had to go. I wonder what the “Me Too” movement thinks about the double standard.
That would be the Trump cult
Is it not 1/3 or Americans who support trump? Just asking. If they are one and the same
It’s not acceptable.
Racist
Only wimps think it’s wrong!
Well that 1/3 probably thinks the other 2/3 should stop being such thin skinned flower pedals. That 1/3 probably thinks that the other 2/3 should stop being offended by everything.
One third of Americans are racist.
This is WarPaint
About one third of Americans obviously need help and education.
One thing is clear to every black person:Blackface is never acceptable. Under any circumstance and in every situation.Forgiveness is what we see in Virginia’s Black voters. What does Blacks see in Whites when we think Slavery,Lynchings, inequalities in hiring and pay,home loans..
Oh really? I don’t remember being polled. Or do they take a few ppl they pay to take polls?
Blackface is not ok period no excuses!😡
let's see, 1/3, 33% = Trump supporters
Do those people really know the history of black face. How it was used to dehumanize and stereotype blacks?
😡
This is the company that most of the journalist will be sued
🤦🏻♂️
🤦♀️
Why is acceptable for blacks to dye their hair blonde, imitating my White Swedish heritage,on a DAILY basis, yet whites can’t imitate their appearance even one day of the year on Halloween? Maybe everyone of them should be fired for racism 🙄🤨 Yet another double standard!
Coincidence?... 🤔🤔🤔 37% support Racist Trump..
Most likely because 1/3 are racists... math adds up pretty coincidentally.
I'm thinking by year 2018/2019 racism is a personal issue, not a weapon for destroying people's careers. Personal issues get dealt with at the therapy office, not by hype on media mustering up hate crimes... negative + negative doesn't equal resolutions just more problem...
that’s a problem
There’s a line that some people don’t want to see.
😑 🤦🏻♀️
That 1/3 should be required to watch the skit from last week's SNL nbcsnl
Hmmmm...and Trump’s base is...
Yeah the top poll said Hilary would win....... don't believe polls.
Keep drumming up hate! Sheesh this shit is giving me a headache.. the media needs to do better.
It's no coincidence the same 1/3 voted for trump.
That would be the racist third (aka, that one uncle).
Must be the Trump third.
In other news... water is wet.
All deplorables.
They would be wrong.
So now you are making excuses so a democrat holds the seat. You can’t call Trump racist when in fact he has never done that.
UNCONSCIONABLY DISGUSTING!!!
Shocker/Spoiler: that very same 1/3 of Americans is Donald Trump’s base.
That’s simply because they have no historical reference point as to why it is offensive to black people, especially those who grew up in the 40s 50s 60s and 70s.
Let’s be super clear people-I’m white and from the south and 58 years old-blackface has NEVER been accepted at any time. If you think it’s ok at Halloween, YOU ARE A RACIST. There are plenty of therapists to help you work thru it. This is a PSA!
Of Course Democrats find it Acceptable!
Two thirds day deport this Third.
that's about the same number of racists who support trump
More Fake News ?
All of a sudden it's ok because it's someone from the left. Hypocrisy at its finest right here.
Taking a wild guess here but I'm betting it's the same one third that are Trump supporters. 🤔😏
Ask Meghan Kelly
I wouldn’t care much about anyone making light of my physical attributes! Or my intelligence! Or dear I say my Religion! I know who I am and what I stand for.
It's not that racist tbh. No one really cares.
So does that mean PoC can wear 'white face' while lynching white people and burning down their communities?
Give it up.
The party of trump =33% Coincidence?
1/3. Hmmmm. Why does that number ring a bell TrumpSupporters TrumpIsARacist
Not the worst thing people have done or will do. Not the best thing people can do.
No surprise here
Trump's approval is about the same. I suspect a one circle Venn diagram.
I bet I know who they voted for.
MORE CRAP TO DIVIDE AMERICA
1/3 is your margin of error.
Come on! Be serious! If anyone needs to hear it, let’s just keep saying it: BLACK FACE IS NOT NOW, NEVER WAS AND NEVER WILL BE ACCEPTABLE. It’s reprehensible and people should know better.
only the super rich think there above the law
2/3 say it isnt. Why not report it that way.
One third of our country voted for Trump.... go figure....
Those would be the same 1/3 that support trump!
What the hell are americans being taught in school?
Why is this ok whiteface
Some politicians refer to that 1/3 as their base.
I wonder what percent are ok with palm-face?
Do not normalize it. He needs to step down as he was wearing the KKK outfit.
Dear lord 🤦🏻♀️
No I was taught better than that
So in other words 2/3 oppose it and think it’s disgusting?
Yeah that one third is probably trolling high school kids and adults in their 20's. Take them out and the poll really shows that 90% of the country disapproves and that there is 10% of the country that is imbedded with racism due to old colonial cotton money.
BS
Who cares. Seriously. Why is this a thing?
1/3 of this country is racist. Just say it.
Yeah, no. Just no.
BS 😤
1/3 of Americans would be tRump voters.
That's the same one third that by votes for Trump.
Have we sunk this low
America: where we poll the country to quantify racism
For news, this is the best you can do?
Some people may think it’s ok to shove you and abuse you all day long. Since when is it ok for people not affected to dictate what derogatory action or word is ok?
I really don’t give a shit. I just don’t like the double standard. If Ralph was a republican, he would have been kicked out same day
The 29% are also known as Trump's rock solid base.
In the 50’s when I was a child and Halloween rolled around, we kids smeared ourselves with black, yellow, red, and a variety of colors. White powder was also a big favorite. Get over it everyone.
No no no no.....
Once racial prejudice is thrown out the window, any face is good face !
That's too bad
Dressing up as your favorite black artist in one thing; but misc blackface standing next to a KKK member that is a whole different matter. Details count peeps, get a clue.
1/3 Americans or 1/3 White Americans from the South?
Who ARE these people
Did one third of the people polled have the last name Northam?
And that’s why we should never put civil rights up for a referendum. About a third of the people are just awful human beings.
All the Trumpsters, right?
Fortunately, we are a nation of Majority Rules.
33% Trump voters are okay wearing blackface for Halloween anytime. Same Trump voters are Not okay the democrat governor wearing blackface for Halloween 35 years ago and demand resignation.
This middle aged, pasty white lady never thought it was acceptable
That third should read Understanding Jim Crow by David Pilgrim
It doesn’t matter what the offenders think- it’s how you make other people feel. If an entire race finds it offense, shouldn’t that mean more than anything. We are sharing this planet, let’s act like it
and calling me a Chink, a Gook or a Jap is a term of endearment 🤦🏻♀️
So if poll is correct 1/3 of Americans are racist, that's just lovely 😐
And 1/3 supports Trump! No shit
The replies indicate that the results get interpreted depending on how you lean. Bottom line: Republicans 51%, Democrats 21% think it's okay. We should all be better than that. Right and wrong shouldn't have colors or political affiliations.
About one third of America is terrible
It’s the 34 percent who vote Democrat and are desperately trying to spin the racism away from Northam.
They wanted to get rid of all black masks from the stores. Because it promote racist.
Polls are not reliable scientific data, I worked for a company that ran those😁
Here's my question: Why the hell would anyone WANT to?
What a joke!
like who in heck really cares
Absolutely Not! And I hate when men put on fake boobs, wigs, etc and act all slutty! So offensive to women! It’s weird that some women think that’s cute! Gross
Blackface, yellowface or anything degrading another race is distasteful and NOT funny. But what is criminal is late term abortion or the killing of a fully formed baby which this disgusting individual has been advocating for. The left however prefers to focus on the former! Why?
The First Amendment makes it perfectly acceptable!!
Ummmmm really?
30 years ago it was acceptable, doing blackface in today's PC hellscape would be foolish.
Gross. Just say no to being a ridiculous jerk.
That goes in line with Trump's approval ratings. Gonna go out on a limb and say most of the people who are ok with it love Trump
Okay, so blackface is acceptable to 33.3% of Americans. How do they feel about infanticide?
Twenty years ago I might have agreed, however over time I've come to realise that some people find it demeaning and offensive. They deserve to feel respected for who they are. It's time to put crude racial tropes aside for the betterment of all of us.
Is there going to be a Damon Wayne’s WHITE CHICKS 2 national MOVIE!! Asking for a friend hahahahaha hahahahaha
So most Americans think it's tacky and wrong. Let's concentrate on that.
That's funny!!
True! but the pic in your year book wasn't nice at all .
that would be trump’s 1/3
What about when mimes paint their faces white. Doess this mean they are now our off business...lighten up people lighten up
what a way to point out the obvious. stop emphasizing what everyone else thinks about blackface. we need to be hearing more from black voices addressing this issue on deeper level of why its wrong and how we can do better.
Seems more like mockery. You guys bend over backwards in forgiveness and excuses for your own.
Sorry I don’t find it acceptable or any methods used to degrade another human being
Looks to me like Gov. Northam made it acceptable because nothing’s gonna happen. I don’t want to hear a damn thing out of you libs when this happens on the right. Can you imagine the 24/7 new cycle if a republican did this?
MeghanBunchman
NBC is a disgrace
Democrats and their propaganda arm, the MSM are trying to Normalize a White Governor whose nickname is Coonman who wore Blackface, While at the same time throwing The Black Lt Governor under the bus without due process to save the Virginia Governors seat WalkAway BLEXIT
Did they poll anyone besides Congress?
If Asians or blacks were wearing whiteface for Halloween,who would care? The hype on the reverse is purely about political elites trying to make us hate each other.
Its never ok in my opinion
I bet not one black person was in the One-third
Then one third of Americans are racist. With all of the hate spewing we’ve witnessed in the past two years, that sounds about right.
1/3 of democrats must hold this viewpoint as they support a open racist in Virginia.
100% Of people know it’s insensitive and not tolerated in today’s society. 😤 If not 🙄 explain it to someone who doesn’t understand.
A third of Americans will believe anything. It’s insane.
America is one-third racist bigots, are you sure it's not more?
Point being?
We did Nazi that coming.
NBC29 Is the name COONMAN or did you ask? He wasn't called that for Nothing!
What about wearing KKK Klan hoods?
i'd love to see a poll that only includes the opinions of black people. you know, the offended party... instead of white people with their fake rage about something they have no say in just sayin
Trump's base. Color me surprised. Not.
Fake outrage from the race hustlers is criminal . Media is guilty .
I bet all one-third of those Americans own a MAGA hat 😴
Well maybe some Americans should wear white face on Halloween !!!
Because these Americans polled are either closeted racist or extremely insensitive/ignorant to black prejudice. Tip: if your costume is making fun of any race of people via visual stereotypes....DONT WEAR IT!
The MSM ain’t going to save these racists in VA and NC. Sorry but not sorry, your new narrative ain’t going to work LiberalHypocrisy MondayMood
And 1/3 suppprt trump. Hmmmmmm
Where....never seen it .
How about people 30 years ago?
Not surprised.
Are these 1/3 Democrats?
I can guess which third that is. They likely wear red baseball hats with a certain phrase on them the rest of the year.
In 1980 I have never heard of blackface or knew anything about its historic past. When dressing up as a Native or one of your heroes like MJ, you just were trying to look like them. Too much fuss; unless you had ill intentions at the time. Easy to look back now and say, 'bad'.
KKK outfit was never OK. NEVER!
It's only bad if you vote the wrong way, I guess.
Wonder if that’s the same 1/3 that has an unwavering devotion to Trump?
Racism in acceptable in the south. It was a key feature of slavery.
Not surprised, not in the least. Assumed it would be closer to 45-50%.
One third of Americans must immediately step down.
Not surprising at all. They’re all Trump supporters and RACIST!!!
How about never acceptable
I bet that 33% also wears red hats.
Except if you are a Republican.... than its racist
Then their screeches of racism are disengenuous
About the same percentage of voters who are rabid pro-Trump. What a surprise.
'Pew'...church seat.
It’s not normal to be a racist
Well 1/3 are racist than
Well Democrats in Virginia seem to have little issue with this given VA Governor has 50% approval rating.
So is saying that they took megynkelly off the air for nothing?
This shouldn't be a surprise.
... about the size of Trump's 'base' - right? ;-)
If you found out some person running for office wore black on his face for a costume party or dance contest in 1986, would you give a sh!+? Good grief. Who cares?
About 1/3 of Americans support Trump so this makes sense.
Coincidentally, about one third of the electorate thinks Trump is doing a good job
and 1/3 of Americans support our racist scumbag president. Coincidence? I think not!
Lol they even polled to try to save this guy. Step down
Absolutely disgusting for a white conservative with unchecked white privilege to engage in this behavior. VoteDemocrat
It was but this ain't 1947
i bet all those 1/3 voted red hat
NBC trying to CLEAN UP for THEIR GUY!!!🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😂HOW TRANSPARENT!!!
Where? Plz do tell...
“About one-third of Americans are admittedly racist.” That seems about right, looking at Trump’s approval ratings.
Um, no!
thank you for suggesting this book for me 💗
