Alright I will concede that the animal costume example is a bad one as it's detracting from some of my other examples.
Can we talk about a non-marginalized race or ethnicity instead? Like obviously turtles don't have the capacity to be affected by my costume. Although we talk like it's ridiculous but I can't help but think there are some extreme animal rights activists that may have something to say about it.
So what about face makeup for another group? When does a costume become a mockery?

Alright fair enough. And it sounds like based on some of the Trudeau vs Aliu's equipment manager discussion then intent would matter at least a little bit. ie the punishment was worse for the latter given he was mocking Aliu.
