Hilariously ironic since she has fake boobs and about 15 lbs of makeup on, but let's play the "great genes/jeans" word play. I hadn't seen the ads until this post, but now I see what could piss people off. It's stupid to get upset, but its a pretty ridiculous ad campaign.


So much wrong with this

Some idiot writes an opinion piece and how it defines every left-leaning person? This is what the media does to people...encourages painting groups of people with broad brushes, creating enemies out of thin air.

It's like taking "Jewish space lasers" and implying most MAGA people think Jewish space lasers are a thing.

It's dumb. We all need to grow up or, better yet, unplug.

It’s funny how you constantly get embarrassed by your own side but you never consider that you are on the wrong side.

Of course this is how his message of addressing divisiveness is responded to. Neither "side" is inherently right or wrong, and everyone here is capable of nuance.

It's not my side so I'm not embarrassed.

Well, I'm not embarrassed for the democrats. I'm embarrassed by anyone who writes such a stupid opinion as well as those who lap it up to somehow make the other "side" look bad.

Whiteness is violence et al aren't really fringe positions on the left at this point

They probably will become increasingly so as the left recognizes just how much of an anchor these concepts they've brought to the mainstream are, but I don't remember Fox News or equivalent publishing Jewish space laser opinion pieces.

Meanwhile, the official position of the government until from 2020-2024 was that men can get pregnant.

This is disingenuous unless you've been wholly consumed by the right wing bubble. Woke was dead years ago outside of the far left. "Abolish the Police" was WIDELY ridiculed by mainstream dems, as an example.

I took good genes to mean she got her boobs from her genes, nothing to do with blonde hair and blue eyes. The ad could have Jared Goff's wife in it, and I would think the same thing.

Exactly. And of course the "article" they are reporting on is one of those stupid "Opinion" pieces. Pretty sure those only exist for people to post crazy tabloid level headlines.

Good lord where do y'all get this bullshite

You've got multiple "leftists" in this thread ridiculing the opinion piece and loving the ad campaign. Maybe talk to real people instead of getting your info on "the left" from MSM designed to piss you off.

Imagine having ever stepped foot in an AE store, or seen an AE ad and thinking they were "right wing nazis". Were people up in arms over their "Aerie" (their lingerie offshoot brand) ad with women with colostomy bags wearing their underwear?

The Democratic mayor candidate for the biggest and most powerful city in America has a plethora of this content. AOC engaged in it, and she's perhaps the face of the current left. Biden himself called "white supremacy" the most dangerous terrorist threat to America. I'd say you're deluding yourself, but you know what you're saying is false.

That you guys think this type of thing resonates when up against "white women in commercials is fascism!" is a great display of just how the fringe has captured the American left.
