And blackface is just a costume. I think there's some necessary context to understand GP's comment: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expulsion_of_the_Chagossians

There is a good "Behind the Bastards" episode about this event.

Also the Chagossian man in the Wikipedia article is incredibly jacked. I am assuming that physique is just from physical labor but holy cow.

    He's probably 5'4" - 5'8" (and standing alone) which helps significantly.

    • Even if he is small, his muscle definition is very impressive. It's pretty cool that you can have that physique from regular physical labor.
