What's sad is I'm not surprised by any of the comments in this thread.
I'm late to the thread, but just read through the whole thing hoping that people would denounce these assholes with at least a similar degree of fervor as the denouncements rightfully directed to far-left snowflake nutjobs. Disappointed, but not surprised.

Guy who is uncomfortably advocating race mixing



I'm not advocating for anything, I'm just laughing at all the mongoloids here who are apparently mortified by the idea of different races marrying

I just read that All State is MAGA now from some crazy Afrocentric tweet

It's not that. It's the over-representative, force-feeding of the interracial narrative that the media continues to promote.

This isn't the media dude. It's simply a private firm trying to attract the largest number of customers. Not everyone is out to get you

It's not now, never has been, never will be, and never is "skin color." It is, however, cultural pathology, behavioral patterns, and, dare I say it, shared ancestry among certain groups which DOES matter.

Is that same private firm responsible for the severely disproportionate level of similar media narratives in other commercials with other for-profit agencies?

What world do you live in? Over-represented? I work with like 5 gay guys, a black man married to an Asian woman, a gay man in an interracial relationship (I'm sure that's triggering a mess of people in here), and live around several different races. Open up your social circle. It will do you some good.

Agreed, it doesn't help our cause at all.

This made up issue is being driven by fragile liberals upset that trumps win turned their world upside down. Sux to be on the wring side of history I guess.

Yet you combined race with ethnicity. Want to wager which is more bigoted?

Are you a Puritan


No, I feel no need to purify the Church of England from the existing remnants of the Romanist faith. For one thing, I feel that the CoE is incompatible as it is with the institution of faith, so much so that I decline to participate with any of its doctrines. Thus, I am a practicing non-conformist.

No dude, those other firms are.

Many firms find more value in marketing to multiple demographics. This is particularly true for large, nationwide corporations that absolutely need customers from multiple racial groups.

The fact that there are so many mixed-demo couples in commercials is not evidence of some insane global media conspiracy. It's simply evidence that it works.

How is it force feeding?

I can think of a grand total of one TV commercial off the top of my head that had an interracial couple. This wasn't even a commercial. It was a tweet. I never would have heard about it if TJ hadn't started a thread.

And any ad with human models necessarily involves a decision on the actors. Would you consider it force feeding if 100% of the couples were white and hetero? Do you think they should carefully calibrate their ads to be perfectly representative of the country?

And yet that same formula, applied to mainstream TV and Movies, does not work. So why do they continue to purvey it?
