Can you notice that it’s a bit leaning to the right?

    That’s because there’s a large part of the US that’s done coddling racism. Whether it’s intentional, ignorance, or systemic. It’s 2024, the Internet is available. There’s no longer an excuse for this.

      I think I am stopping one step before you. Which is understanding whether something is racist or not. Using purely your cultural understanding to define it is going to lead to misunderstandings. In this case, understanding the context and the real intent of the picture makes it pretty clear that race has nothing to do with it. If you choose not to understand the context and just mark as racist anything that if done in another context would be racist, be my guest, I will just disagree.

        Race has everything to do with it.

          Can you elaborate how?

          I provided at the very least an interpretation that is coherent, conscious of the cultural context and that makes sense considering the content of the text/article for what the image is used for.

              This doesn’t answer the question.

              You said “it has everything to do with race”, how?

                looks at picture of Black Woman in Native paraphernalia.

                Looks at sudneo.

                The Internet is right there man. Don’t be ignorant.

                  So you refuse to elaborate, because your opinion is self evident, even though it is based on a lack of cultural context, and lack of understanding of the content of this very page.

                  My opinion, which I shared and elaborated, which is based on understanding the cultural background, the content of this page, knowing this rag, knowing what newspapers use and do in general, is automatically invalid - without argument - because it doesn’t fit your view. It doesn’t matter that I explicitly shared an interpretation that has nothing to do with race, which is plausible, coherent (I.e. matches the content) and context-aware. You are right by default because your cultural lens is the only thing you ever need to interpret the world.

                  Colonial mindset. That’s what I get from this.

                    Lmao. Colonial mindset? While defending racism against black people and indigenous people?

                    That’s hilarious. At least I got a good laugh out of this.
