Now anyone caught collaborating with the sun must be brought to bear.
You may think that coed laying on the beach is relatively harmless, but in fact she may be guilty of: Blackfishing.
As described by Pema Bakshi in Beauty Crew magazine, it is a problem.
“Blackfishing is a relatively new concept...and does not exactly mean to necessarily mock qualities of BIPOC people, but rather seeks to emulate those identifiers."
So, yes, this is a crime.
If you are white and benefit from a tan, you are reaping the rewards of being a darker person without paying the dues, i.e. the racism that darker people routinely endure.
Beauty Crew is putting you on notice.
“If you are non-Black or a non-POC, I think it is worth paying attention to how you tan and asking if you are going beyond what is natural and normal for you, and ...why you think that you should tan to that point.”
In reality, if someone is truly hurt, upset or offended by the way you tan that person is living so comfortably that they’ve mothballed their real sensitivities and have adopted a flight simulator way of life.
But it’s just a simulation. All a game.
Unfortunately it is damaging to society and saps the fun out of everything. We live once so why not make the most of it? Get off the flight simulator and indulge in the real adventure in the real world.

I will be tanning today, and I’m doing some math at work today.
Show me a white person who’s turned black while tanning.
Me, I’m the palest person in the room, and I always wear a big sun hat when I go out, and I have got to be guilty of problematic accentuating of racial differences.
I think the counter-argument is: “You’re an idiot and I don’t need to debate this with you.”
In short, anything that White People do is racist. Anything. Period.
That is the logical argument.
Actually the fact that white people easily sunburn when blacks don’t is an example of racism.
I demand that blacks get sunburned!
And actually I believe that some really smart conservatives think up stuff like this to spoof and troll the idiot leftists.
The internet has allowed every psychotic a chance to bloviate. It’s like walking into the psych intake ward at an emergency room with all the verbal word and idea salads being shouted out or vocalized.
It is getting kinda obvious that there is only one cure for racism—round up the all the white people and gas them.
:-(
The only rewards I've reaped was a sun burn. I've never tried to get a tan or burn. I have worked outdoors though, including my 25 years in FL.
blacks tan too...
Actually you are more susceptible to skin damage and related diseases from exposure to that sun than "darker people" are - should white people cry unfairness under this warped logic?
I’m a redextremities, more than my neck gets sun from gardening/yardwork.
Are the accusers going to come do my gardening and work? No?
They can kiss my white a** and I’ll just carry on as normal.
Okay, from now on blacks are not allowed to straighten their hair or dye it blonde.
For Salty’s, a fresh, “sun-kissed” look from an active outdoor life is appealing as a sign of health, vigor and vitality.
Laying on the beach until burnt is just bat-shiite crazy.
That’s exactly what I think is going to happen. Every sign is pointing to it.
You racist, you!
I'll bet you hate small, furry, cuddly animals, too!
I believe many years ago tanned people were poor people. Only the rich were the purist of white.
Me, I am tanned most of the year(FL). Even sometimes darker than my black friends during summer months.
