interracial couples arent a bad or good thing, it just is. im sure some work and some dont, just like all couples.

weird that its always getting pushed.


Well it is weird how it's pushed. I mean i'm fine with it. I'm in an interracial relationship but i can still recognize how there seems to be some sort of media driven racial agenda wihen it comes to advertising. There's a good market analysis reason for this. I just don't know what it is.

People on commercials are way better looking than people in real life. What’s the agenda?

You: they are excluding white couples

You: weird they use interracial

Conclusion: it’s not weird unless all white commercials.

How many black Powell are allowed in commercials so you won’t feel persecuted.

I’m never mad.

I’m cracking jokes about Charmin bears and Keebler elves.

It really isn't representative of real life at all.

Interracial marriages (across all races, not just black and white) make up about 10% of the population.

They probably make up about 10% of the fake marriages in commercials, too.

Everyone buys cars. Maybe they're just trying to appeal to everyone. Not just white people. Not just black people. Not just Asians. Not just Hispanics. Not just Middle Eastern people. Not just martians.

If they make a commercial with people of all races, it might appeal to more people. Not just whites, blacks, Asians, Hispanics, or Middle Eastern people.

Interracial couples may feel more comfortable being around other interracial couples, than being around a group that's all of one race. From reading this thread, I guess there are still pockets of this country where they might get stared at, or even hassled about it.

Oh no! Are they teaching our kids that it's alright to love someone who looks different than them?!


It's pretty hilarious that you think companies are pushing some nefarious agenda that has nothing to do with making money. And if they actually are pushing this "propaganda", frick, why are interracial couples so bad? Do you know how many people have died because of what they look like? Maybe this next generation won't kill each other so fricking much.

Well considering your dumb arse is here talking about it, I'd say they're running a pretty successful advertising campaign. Could that be the agenda?

No, that's stupid. Nissan Motor Co. is obviously spending their own money in order to convince my son to date a black chick when he's older.

It appeals to women (who are really the ones buying consumer goods now). They want to be reassured that they can get railed by any random lantern-jawed protagonist type they can reel in, without judgment.

Showing a white woman with a black man, or vice-versa, is a way to signal that your organization is on board with the creation of a world where that holds true.

The interracial thing is honestly a bit dated (I just hope my daughters don't date complete frickin' losers), but it's a good proxy for a lot of sh1t tests that women expect businesses to pass.

Based on my posting of ads, you would have to conclude that white peoples are vastly over represented.

Just sampled the ads in this episode of Family Guy I'm watching:

Polar bears

White people

Mostly non-white group

Mostly white group

100% Hispanic group

Mostly white group
