Loved this guy in Parks and Rec
Oh hey look it’s the genocide supporter Sarah Silverman
Eh, it took me years to tell Claire Danes apart from Gwyneth Paltrow and I think there are a couple other actresses that I may also be thinking are Claire or Gwyneth. It isn’t “they don’t recognize different brown people” as much as there are many doppelgangers in the world.
Jaime Pressly and Margot Robbie but I don’t think the people in the OP look alike.
Ew, a Margot?
In the '80s it was Tom Selleck and Burt Reynolds for me.
At various periods of time, I’ve been unable to tell the difference between Val Kilmer and Kurt Russell.
I’d throw John Travolta into that list.
You need to get checked for prosopagnosia.
I’d much rather have Claire Danes goop scented candle
What about Bryce Dallas Howard and Jessica Chastaine?
However for white celebrities, it seems to be the exception. For celebrities of colour, it’s a common experience.
I can’t speak to the gamut of white celebrities but I could pick Bryce Dallas Howard’s butt out of any lineup
You shouldn’t pick butts. You’ll get a smelly finger.
I still can’t tell Jessica Chastain and Bryce Dallas Howard apart. I constantly misremember who is in what movie.
I certainly can’t tell most of the Chrises apart.
I swear I can’t see the differences other than the hair when I look at a kpop video. Idk if its a messed up beauty standards or just me but everyone seems to have the exact same head shape, pale skin and a perfectly smooth face.
You need training. I was like this at first then got force fed kpop and you start to notice differences.
Yeah, ig I just haven’t seen enough faces to distinguish. But I am gonna skip on that training lol.
Women can be difficult recognize if they share one or two similar features. I blame it on the makeup the wear. Danes and Paltrow are skilled in using makeup and can use it to alter their looks a lot.
I would be very careful being brown around Sarah Silverman
Yeah, I really liked her until the whole “genocide is cool because of my superstition” bullshit
Fuck Sarah. She has always been a bigot. She’s been saying racist shit under the guise of humor for decades now.
I was mistaken for Jack black at a rave in December… I have a beard and am overweight. That’s all it took. And drugs. I’m assuming and drugs…
Underrated comedian
The guy with 3 accounts or Sarah Silverma?
Zio making a racist joke? I’m shocked. \s
I just read her controversies section on wiki. I wasn’t aware of most of it, but the Zionism is especially disappointing.
I didn’t know either, huge bummer
I just watched Fallout’s second season recently, and I was surpised to see Kumail in it. Up until they said his name, I thought he was supposed to be Arthur Maxton so I was like “What?! No way!” 🤣
Holy shit people, is this whole thread satire, or are you all basically confirming what they are talking about
Yes
Right they look nothing like each other, I guess our brains develop to best distinguish faces amongst our own ethnicity
Depends on if you are exposed to other ethnicities growing up.
People that grew up in a monoculture struggle a lot more than people who lived in diverse neighborhoods and schools.
At first I thought Kal meant both of your accolades like he only had two lol
I never understood people who can’t tell look-a-likes apart. Sure, some people look very much alike, but it doesn’t take long to pick up on the small details. Only time I was a bit confused was when I started in college and a girl in my class had a twin who was in the class next door, but I didn’t know for the first few days so I had one deja vu experience after the other. Haha. But it didn’t take long before I could tell them apart from a mile away.
Prosopagnosia - face-blindness - is a real thing, that is especially common with autistic folks. Personally I struggle a lot with faces, but I can learn to recognize the faces of people, that I interact often with (still, sometimes I cannot recognize my partner from pictures, for example). Some people cannot learn faces at all.
That being said, in cases like these, it is definitely racism.
yeah I have a hard time telling apart people with similarly shaped faces, but having looked up these 3 actors, they look completely different
Ironically I have the opposite problem, I’m so bad with faces that I worked with two twins and never knew they were twins because their mannerisms were so different
Don’t forget how casually racist the average 'Murican is
These actors barely count as humans to most of them
And disappointingly, Silverman is fine with a slightly different group of brown humans being wiped out
A lot of Americans just live in rural mostly white areas. I’d say most aren’t intentionally maliciously racist, but painfully ignorant.
USAians were raised on sterotypes. We dont neccesarily think they are all bad or make people less per se.
But we have also been raised on fear with a nationalism subtext.
And the convolution of the two makes a lot of default bigots without a community showing humans are all just people.
This guy was really good on the daily show
The fourth person adds nothing but also tries to make it about them. Weird.
She’s a famous comedian. She possibly knows some or all of them
See also: your comment.
She’s a zionist. That’s how they move.
Agreed. Avoid her stand up routines. She’s completely and utterly insufferable. A huge bigot too, always saying hateful shit while pretending she’s just joking.
And she has a pig nose too.
Why does he have 4 accounts? Relevant XKCD
Edit: lmfao do people really think this image isn’t all the same guy?? With those profile pics???
Sarah does kinda look like Kal Penn if you squint your eyes and rub habenero sauce in them.
