More preferred names include but are not limited to The Dough Joe The Pizzarena Little Caesar ' s Palace <| sep |> To be fair many engines have to be removed from the mounts and tilted forward or dropped to get to the back Bank of spark plugs . <| sep |> But I ' d challenge , why is the Mexican in jumpsuits inherently racist ? Maybe it was a commentary on the recent American election , wherein Trump implied most illegal Mexican immigrants were criminal beyond the immigration crimes . The main reason we see costumes as potentially problematic are 1 . We use the image of a group for fun at the same time that we participate in or are ignorant of substantial injustices against that group . 2 . We have historically used the costumes to ridicule and dehumanize the group we ruined the costume . Number 1 is why we shouldn ' t wear native head dresses . That said I ' d argue that this isn ' t necessarily racist it ' s insensitive and ignorant . If you did it knowing the significance of the costume , you ' d be purposefully offensive . While there ' s obviously a strong correlation between racists and people who tend to want to insult a group , even intentionally offending is not necessarily racist . Such tactics can be used to insult the representatives of a group to purposefully incite them . The person doing so may not have any negative perceptions of the race or culture . I ' d say dumbass teenagers drawing swastikas is a good example often they just want to piss people off . Number 2 is why wearing blackface and making monkey noises is unacceptable . Or dressing up as an Asian person , pulling our eyes to a squint , showing buckteeth and talking like a fool is unacceptable . Those costumes are a propagation of ridicule and ARE racist . But it ' s less clear if someone wears blackface to immitate Don King , for example . We would accuse someone who did that as being racist , because they ' re breaking the rule . We ' ve just decided that someone so brazen MUST be racist , because who else would do it ? This kind of rule forming is why people get so worked up about these kinds of costume parties . I , for one , don ' t like other people making up arbitrary rules that only serve to signal groupagreement . It just dumbs down the conversation .
