I'd like to think the artist didn't know about the kerchief code and just went with a cutesy "americana" fashion statement, especially since kweerz are all about being qUiRkY and not knowing how to dress themselves. He is wearing it like an old-timey miner/railroad worker rather than in his back pocket like an 80s San Fran gay.
50 shades of grey
I too would wear huge amounts of makeup and dye my hair to avoid people noticing my misshapen hands, horrible shade of hair, and leprosy.
That picture (and many others in this thread, but this one in particular) really reminds me of the typical "Tumblr Sims" look:
I would absolutely fight all these people if given the chance.
And yet, looking back over half the art on this thread, pretty much all of the 'artists' have created the very caricatures they were trying to avoid by having too many features look accurate to the race in a bad way.
A better and hell of a more respectful way of saying it is "Try practicing black or ethnic features when drawing specific races of people, it's okay to experiment!".
Pink hair =/= your skin color will automatically turn black.
That's Kipo from Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts
"You don't need to hide your imperfections behind makeup, but brown hair is boring and ugly so dye it you queer."

I just love to be this evil
It's either that or white person left for too long in the oven. I've only seen a handful of artists and all of them professional ones, who actually manage to draw black people without making them butt ugly/a caricature.
It’s depressing how they lose so many people by acting like condescending and confrontational asses when they would catch so many more flies with honey.
Well, I take it back. THAT is a perfect example of pink-haired, pink-faced girl done right.
That's what happens when all your interaction comes from shitty, fake-cutesy, people on twitter that are part of massive ouroboros of aural pleasure. Saying things in a reasonable way so that even people that might disagree with you are willing to hear you out is a skill that isn't built by a speaking to a legion of unidentifiable asshats.
Reading that doesn't make me want to draw black people, especially because the left have a track record of being extremely stingy about how black people are portrayed and do they're best to stain your reputation as a racist.
