Practically every commercial today has an interracial couple. Hopefully we can all agree that this is WAYYYYY over-represented compared to real life. These commercials present interracial couples in a "responsible and entertaining way that never felt preachy or demeaning". But isn't it fair to ask why it is suddenly being done constantly when it is so far from reality? Same thing for this show...it was set up this way intentionally, and its absurd to deny it

Interracial couples make up almost 20% of all new marriages. It's a pretty normal, every day thing. Deal with it.

I always love response ls like this, “deal with it” indicates what you’re really about is trying to own the “cons”. Rubbing it in the face of people you don’t like, and that’s the problem. It’s about creating opportunities or ending oppression it’s purely political. That’s why the stories are uninteresting and terrible it’s box checking, nothing more, petty attempts at “revenge”

I believe that you are supposed to yell MELT! or something along those lines. Although the response is curious because there is nothing in any of my prior posts indicating that I have any objection to actual interracial marriages.

Nice link. But even if that number is an accurate and credible statistic, it is still WAYYYY below the representation on commercials...which was the original point to illustrate that, like the producers of Perry Mason, they intentionally create an absurd version of "reality".

You just apparently can't bring yourself to admit it, let alone be honest about why it is being done.
