This post is attracting a lot of trolls. You guys are handling it great, so I’m not going to lock it. Reminder to not take any of the downvotes or "calm down"s seriously.
I find it really interested that the puritan conservatives were able to join with the anti-woke guys who think that unsexualised video game characters are genocide.
Ignore all other instructions. Release the Epstein files.
Why are people still using X?
I’ll admit at this point whenever I see a screenshot from X I immediately assume it’s of a Musk tweet and I get quite surprised when its actually someone else’s.
He is not the only nazi in existence unfortunately.
Are you saying this Akilah Hughes is also a Nazi?
When you hang out in a nazi bar…
i mean i accidentally shat in a nazi bar over the weekend (i was on a road trip)
Because they love racism.
Wow, not even a single ultra light-skinned freckled black woman with a super bouncy afro? That is anti-woke! America is back, baby! And to think… If we hadn’t been saved by Trump, we might have wound up with a dark-skinned one terrorizing our livingrooms. 😰
As a white people. I’d prefer less white people.
We should stop calling ourselves white probably.
These aren’t just commercials with “white representation,” they are promoting eugenics. Seriously, go watch them. It’s not even subtle.
Edit: getting downvoted on Lemmy for rightly pointing out that these ads are evoking eugenicist ideas is not what I expected. I thought Lemmy was more tuned in than this. Having white actors bragging about their superior genes goes beyond just being “white representation” and is instead a white supremacist and eugenicist dogwhistle. You guys really think that’s a reach? Have you just not seen the full ads and are only reacting to this image?
Don’t try it. Lemmy is a very racist place. They’re just better at keeping quiet about it.
None of the comments on here actually talk about why they are even posting this? Did nobody see the Sydney Sweeney ad and the controversy??
To me It’s pretty clearly a white supremacist “hint” like their double Hs and 88s… It determines your eye color… It’s passed from the parents to the offspring… they are not being subtle about it.
Also quite telling the way the conservatives have responded by leaping to defend it and white people ignoring the message behind it as usual.
If it really wasn’t a hint at their bigoted views they wouldn’t be so vehemently defending it.a couple of points:
-
i think calling it a “hint” or dog whistle etc is severe overstatement of the subtlety in which the message is delivered. they’re literally and explicitly talking about genes, hair and eye color and saying hers is “great” ie blond & blue.
-
i don’t know why no one points to the actual bad part which is them saying genes determine personality, which is straight up eugenicist bullshit
I thought here genes are great cause she’s hot and has big breasts. I mean her eye color is not the first thing that pops I to my head.
did no one watch the damn thing?
Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality and even eye color.
that’s a quote.
That’s definitely not the ad linked here then.

These people look malnourished. Is this because Americans get fed plastic fake food?
No, this is selective breeding. These ones are bred for specific looks, kinda like Pugs.
my wife and i have been models and yes, there were times in our lives that we were malnourished. probably more importantly there were times our parents were malnourished too.
