People on this very board complained about an interracial couple in a commercial.


I don't think the complaint was "people shouldn't marry outside their races." It was more about the pervasive use of interracial couples as a cheap way to virtue signal.

Interestingly, I think that phenomenon has given way in the last few months. I don't think the corporate advertising goons have quite wrapped their heads around whether BLM types might even consider the interracial couple offensive. They may want to see 100% black couples instead, not some nerdy white or asian dude with a black chick.

I get that, but the only issue I've ever had with interracial commercial threads is that people only complain about white and black couples. I've seen other combinations and people seemingly don't care.
