Thank you for taking the time to find that for me!
It looks like it just comes down to me being an asshole. If I were to ever do blackface I wouldn't put the kind of thought behind it that the authors of those articles seem to think people do. I'm a shallow kind of person, I'm only thinking about myself, I'm not even considering social & political repression, I'm thinking about the party.
You sound like Prince Harry(or was it his brother William?) when he thought it was cool to dress as a Nazi for the royal Halloween party.
