Ngl dieses RP ist schon heftig cringe, schreib doch einfach normal inshallah
Thanks for your personal anecdote, there is always a bit of a disconnect between what is reported on media and how things are actually looking on ground. But glad to hear things have changed much over there.
You forgot the golden hoop earrings 😂
Zwarte Piet in itself is not that bad of a story for children, but you could just use ash as makeup to suggest the scenario instead of whatever this abomination is
Black curly wig, obvious blackface, the golden hoop earrings 😭… Zwarte Piet has been used as a racial stereotype since the late 19th century - it only got worse during the 20th century - even if its origins were originally different and imo needs to be changed (as has been tried and partially succeeded)
I remember the Atlanta “Sinterklaas is coming to town” episode, hilarious 😂
But I didn’t know about this supposed “tradition beforehand, despite living pretty close to the border and went down the Zwarte Piet rabbithole. There was a huge fight nationwide about if it should be banned or replaced (aka ash on fave instead of blackface) and there were a lot of " traditionalists”, let’s call them racists wanting to preserve their beloved racism custom. There are grown ass people painting their fave pitch balck, lips red, afro wig and gold hoop earrings. Yeah, definitely normal tradition.

People who scoff or laugh a little and want you to ask what’s so funny or interesting. Not on the Spektrum but I ignore them because I hate that shit.
I recently bought some new trainings shirts. They had a size table so I spent like 10min getting all my measurements and choosing the size that should fit. Only for it being too tight around the chest. Wtf Nike, why even bother
