Wearing a 35 year old prop on your face (which you bitched about endlessly while getting famous for it) in order to remind people who you are, because you have done nothing quite notable since
Edit: my hate boner for actors was unwarranted in this case, the image doesnt represent how Burton appeared in person
As far as I'm concerned he should be forced to wear the uniform and the visor at all public appearances, like in Galaxy Quest. In fact the only thing he should be doing is appearing in character to promote the opening of shitty used car dealerships in Pasadena, at a flat $35 rate.
The only good thing (I would have given him credit for the work he's done to promote reading to kids, but now that he's politicized it? nah...) to come out of Levar Burton in the last 30 years is the Geordi/Drake meme, and he didn't even have anything to do with it:

Guys... he didn't wear the Geordi outfit when he was douching it up at this awards show. Someone just did that for the article/thumbnail.

Just to recap: what's acceptable?
Burton would probably agree with that meme.
