Believe me, I do look. Perhaps this is more regional based. Where I am, I'm not seeing a lot of race-mixing. But, I did see more of this about 10 years ago.DeezerShoove » 24 Jan 2024, 2:28 pm » wrote: ↑ You aren't looking... Brainwashing is taking effect... bye, bye

It's actually the programming on [[[HULU and NETFLIX and DISCOVERY NETWORK and the HISTORY [HITLER] CHANNEL]]] that's even more agenda driven than these commercials... !!impartialobserver » 24 Jan 2024, 2:48 pm » wrote: ↑ I guess I must not be as sophisticated.

Do you consider a white woman..... a white man's product?Mrkelly » 24 Jan 2024, 4:14 pm » wrote: ↑ sure it does

and “ I use white products”
just curious what those are

Word. You nailed it.RedheadedStranger » 24 Jan 2024, 3:59 pm » wrote: ↑ Yep.
In the overwhelming majority of satirical commercials, the white guy is the butt of the joke or the "idiot" in the skit.
I believe it serves two purposes...
1) It runs cover for the content creators in that no one will ever call them racist, misogynist, transphobic, etc etc if they are only ridiculing the straight white guys in their spots.
and
2) It furthers the subconscious denigration of the straight white male in the eyes of the general public by constantly belittling them on a National stage.
The advertisers know exactly what they are doing and put a lot of thought into these spots. None of this is happening generically.

Let me put it this way. Commercials ONLY negatively affect what I will NOT buy.impartialobserver » 24 Jan 2024, 2:48 pm » wrote: ↑ I guess I must not be as sophisticated.
