WHY are national commercials 85%-90% black or mixed? I know I shouldn't really care, but equal treatment should mean somewhere around 13% representation.

Are companies this afraid of being cancelled?

ADT burglars are always white, some darkies need to be mixed in there.

I've also noticed a majority of commercials with black voice overs. In America, you shouldn't really be able to tell race by voice, but these racist ad makers make sure you do.

There are actually plenty that can pass as white especially over the phone. Kind of a survival skill for AA's.

Because white people are generally not racist so they will buy products even if they don't identify with the actors appearance, whereas a large number of blacks are racist and need to see an actor that looks like them or they don't identify with them.

Yes, non whites are very tribal. Whites are not, which is why we are losing and becoming second-class citizens. We are sitting here with our thumbs up our ass saying "we are all equal" while they tear down our statues, rename our bases, take our jobs, kill us, etc. Absolute retards on our side.

Eh, I only consider myself white because that's how other view me. I don't really care. Lots of sexy black, Latina, and Asian women out there. As long as she is an American Patriot and she doesn't have porn of herself out there, skin color doesn't matter to me.

I'm not interested in racial consciousness. I don't think anyone in America should be or has to be. I don't hate myself, let alone hate myself for being fair-skinned. I will take pride in my accomplishments and the value that I have brought to my family, community, and job. I will not take pride in my immutable traits since I did nothing to achieve those, and find it annoying when the left and my fellow Pedes said I won the genetic lottery, albeit for different reasons. I will be grateful for the sacrifices my ancestors made to have me in the wonderful position I am in now, and will participate in certain events and rituals to foster a bond to my elders and long gone ancestors, but I'm not going to let that determine my whole identity. I live in different environment than my ancestors; I think it's OK if make adjustments to traditions to optimize my brief time on Earth before I die.

You're second point is somewhat right. A lot of my friends and acquaintances are white, followed by Jewish, Asian, and Latino, and I have few black friends and acquaintances in comparison. But this has little to do with biology but more just demographics of my profession and alma mater, and culture, because out of the groups I listed above, which one as a whole places the least emphasis on education and personal achievement?

I do appreciate these kinds of posts just because they provide a challenge to the beliefs I hold and I do find them entertaining because you guys tend to have a good sense of humor, but focus more on culture and less on biology is all I got to say. It's hard to do so because we inherited a racial lens from prior American generations, and in some cases culture and biology are almost interchangeable in a superficial way (black people/black culture as an example). But again, focus on culture.

Yea that's kinda the new wave thinking. Indoctrinating whites to think that race is meaningless, ancestry and culture are irrelevant, etc.

0
ChicagoMAGA 0 points ago +1 / -1

I ain't indoctrinated, buddy. How does that make ancestry and culture relevant? Ancestry remains the same, and culture can be taught. Why does something as superficial as skin color matter? Are the black women and Latinas that I've slept with disrespecting their culture and ancestors too KEK?

So many people are detached from their ancestry in the US, and that's not a bad thing. How connected is GEOTUS to his German ancestry? Based on what I have observed, not well. I'm somewhat connected to some of mine, but not all. It's a personal choice. And this goes for all sorts of people. Most black people have no connection to Africa. Some of the Jews I know are not connected to their ancestral culture at all. We all have our own destinies to make.

Race is much more than skin color. That's why Rome was more technologically advanced than Africa was in the 19th century, not even having created the wheel at that point. Nor had a written language. Willing to accept racial differences externally and internally to a degree, but it ends at the neck somehow? Racial IQ differences are quite significant.

To ignore race is foolish. You don't have to think of others as superior or inferior, but to ignore it and surmise it as simply "skin color" is a joke. We are all connected to our ancestry through our culture. What is taught from generation to generation, our language, our blood, our legends, heroes, stories, shared conflicts, religion, it all plays a role throughout the centuries of our people. It shaped our legal systems, our behaviors and everything we believe. That is why it is being stripped from us.

They want us to be disconnected from our ancestry. That is their goal. To embrace degeneracy, atheism, multiculturalism --- all to make you a slave to your desires and consumerism. "Race doesn't matter!" While they flood us with migrants to exterminate whites. They love your attitude and carelessness, that is exactly what they aimed for.

ChicagoMAGA 1 point ago +1 / -0

You can not be interested in people's biology and still want a strong border with limited, legal immigration, accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior, and promote self-discipline and financial literacy to combat degeneracy, all of which I do.

You are ignoring the fact that a lot of these cultures benefitted by interacting with other cultures, and they too were a mix of people. The Romans came from Latin tribes that mixed with other groups that lived on the Italian peninsula like the Etruscans and Sabines. They "stole" a lot of their culture from the ancient Greeks, including much of their pantheon. Human history shows a dynamic process where cultures are simply not static unless they are geographically isolated, which leads to them being technologically inferior.

I will continue to view people as allies based on shared interests, goals, and cultures. Someone being white doesn't mean shit. Plenty of white people have abused me, and they would not have given a shit that our ancestors have came from the same continent. Have you ever considered that white people aren't some monolithic group? You really should.

Yeah I work in advertising and I'm often asked to find diverse couples and what not. I understand they are trying to appeal to a wide audience, but the funny thing about that is most couples are not mixed. Nothing wrong with it, I just feel like it should represent - like you hint at - a proportional percentage of the population.

2
DL535 2 points ago +2 / -0

Have you ever simply raised the issue with the people asking for this? "Why shouldn't people in our ads simply represent the population as it actually exists?"

3
UnmaskedPatriot 3 points ago +3 / -0

Quite frankly that's not something I'd want to bring up with a client. Plus I live in an area with a larger than average black population. Honestly, there's plenty of black people that see this and don't care for it either.

VoteBlaster2000 3 points ago +3 / -0

My theory is that it’s part social justice, part laziness, but perhaps more likely it’s economics.

By combining races, brands can maximize virtue signaling with as few actors as possible. The result is, of course, an over representation of mixed race families / gay couples / etc.

Commercials done right:

  • family race 1
  • family race 2
  • family race 3 (mixed race) TOTAL ACTORS = 10; TOTAL RACES = 3 or 4

$$$

Commercials today:

  • mixed race family 1 (white mom, black dad, Chinese adopted transgender child) TOTAL ACTORS = 3; TOTAL RACES = 3

Huh? The only Jewish nationality is Israeli AFAIK, since Israel considers itself a Jewish state. If by race you mean inherited traits (looking from a biological perspective, and not cultural, geographical, political, etc.), I would say that for a lot of Jews I know, there entire ancestry is nearly Jewish, so it can be argued there is a racial part if race = biology. What white nation is there? What state exists that declares itself "the white state"? White has no strict definition and is rather subjective. The US Census Bureau has a pretty broad definition of white, from people with European ancestry to Arabs and I think Turks too, as well as a decent amount of people from Latin America, who also have European ancestry.

The last one I saw with a white family in it had the "main characters" be an interracial couple complaining about their upstairs neighbors, who were stereotypical Bavarians tapdancing constantly.

You do that with any other culture and it would be called racist.

I have never owned a TV. I'm a Christian Patriot.

Spent the last four days in a hospital with my daughter, (she fine btw).

Spent those 4 days browsing TDW, which I've been doing the past month, and sorta watching TV.

Whites are minorities despite being the majority.

1
oraoraoraora 1 point ago +1 / -0

Well, globally whites are only around 12% of the total population so not the majority there

Gradually becoming less than half of the USA, which will keep going down down down

If patterns in Europe continue like they are they'll be the minority in Europe in a couple of generations at most...

Not seeing where "majority" applies anymore, if it ever really did

2
Jamesben 2 points ago +2 / -0

Whites, Americans of Euro ancestry are a solid 66% of the USA. . . . Hispanics, who are mostly Caucasian, make up another 18 or so % of the USA. . . . So, we're a vast majority in this county at at least 84% of the population. (+13% black, 3% "other.")

1
oraoraoraora 1 point ago +2 / -1
  1. They were 62% in 2015 (down from 85% in 1960)

  2. That's not including at least 20 million illegals (that's a very conservative estimate)

  3. White birth rates are the lowest in the US and Euro, the foreign pop birth rates are much higher, and no sign of the borders closing any time soon either

  4. A lot of full on Hispanic and Arabs (as in little to no Euro ancestry at all) are still counted as white in the census

  5. Hence, I said "steadily becoming the minority"

oraoraoraora 1 point ago +2 / -1

Ah, I gotcha. Even so, they'll only be ~40% in the US by 2040 (well probably before that, since Dems apparently want to kill the old people and completely open the borders). So maybe in 2040 as true "minorities" they'll be allowed to demand representation in commercials? lmao

The world is 85% not white. We need global diversity.

rawsalt 13 points ago +13 / -0

Do we really? Do we really need every single country in the world to have exactly the same racial distribution or would it actually be okay for some countries to be predominantly one color (and culture) distinct from others? Or, would it be okay with you if American companies, advertising to Americans, within America actually made commercials that didn't have a globalist political agenda?

I don't see China, the Middle Eastern countries or any of the African countries accepting boat loads of so called "White people" to settle peacefully in their areas. In addition, the so called "white people" you refer to are a racially diverse group unto themselves. It's like saying all Asian people are alike when Asian people, as a whole, tend to be some of the most racist people on the planet and would be the first to distinguish themselves from other Asians on racial terms.

Your idea of diversity is going to diversify the diversity right out of the entire planet. Many leftists say they want diversity but the end game of that is actually zero diversity and complete homogeneity. I refuse to apologize for my white skin and western culture. So, why don't you take your global diversity and blow it out your ass. And I mean that with all due respect.

I care less about a white family being in a commercial than I do having the white male always being the bumbling, wimpy, beta idiot in all of them. And they usually have a bitchy wife that wears the pants, so to speak. So stupid. That's not reality, and its emasculating effect is not doing our society any favors.
