He still looks like House Elf, though I'm particularly pleased with Presscott and the windmill.

Because it's comparing a black man to an ape.

Technically, but a black man that's been surgically altered so much that he no longer looks like a black man at all can hardly have any slurs based on appearance seriously be considered racist, can he? I mean in other ways it's possible, but if he looks nothing like a black man anymore, how could it possibly be reasonably interpreted to say that black men look like apes?

With all respect, I've compared several shipmates to monkeys, be they white, black, or chinese. That doesn't make ME a racist.

Because there's a long legacy of racist imagery comparing black people to apes. This alludes to the same images.

There's no technically about it. Helena B-C is dressed like an ape, Whacko Jacko is a black man.

I see it as comparing Michael Jackson to a female made up as a female from the planet of the apes, or an alien if you will.

Well, humans aer apes anyway, just because MJ happened to be black doesn't mean he doesn't look like the female of a fictional ape species in popular culture, it could be done with a white person when one of those looks like a fictional or real ape too.
