Jezebel: Ashton Kutcher, Jackass, Hops on the Brownface Bandwagon

Ashton Kutcher dresses up in brownface to portray an Indian guy on a video dating site. The friend who sent it to me (who is actually Indian, as opposed to a sad irrelevant white man wearing brown makeup and a polyester kurta for funsies and commercial gain) sent me an angry and accurate gchat about it:

have you seen this ad? the one with Ashton Kutcher dressed up as an Indian dude in an online dating profile?

i get it … indian accents are funny … hardy har har har

and indian men are socially awkward

hardy fucking har har har

it’s like how can you not teach indian kids to feel like less about themselves?

“no worries … no matter how smart/cool/interesting you are

just want you to know that everyone will think you’re a dweeby socially awkward sadly accented boob”

fuck you erasure
