They do the same thing with gay couples.



Because they are attempting to push the narrative, it is not accidental.

If you desensitize the kids the stigma disappears, or at least that is their plan.

it's the libs push to change the mindset. TV has been used to subtly do this. Next we'l start seeing more gay couples too. Ive seen some subtle ones as they dip the toes into it gradually. Subliminal messaging style...Next few yrs you will be on here asking about why so man gay couple commercials. Forgotten about the interracial couples ones. Have more friends that are in them, etc etc

Absolutely this.

Why? Wake up and smell the double standard. I once worked for a large corporation that forced us to take “diversity training”. The only thing I got out of that was this: The first rule of diversity training is to drink enough of the kool aid to accept that there’s a double standard.

The liberal media is trying to shove that shite down our throats by attacking the sanctity of the traditional American family.

Inform yourself, then post.

Sounds like an official study.

It’s just a new fad.

Also, there is a thread about this once a week.

Every commercial or Ad that is produced well is thought out by a highly researched marketing department.

An iterracially couple promotes equality and justice for everyone. It says, we love every potential buyer of our product- not just the rednecks in Georgia who buy F150 ford trucks.

It says: We are fair and balanced and promote love for all no matter your race or culture.

You are valued because you are you and that’s ok because you are ok. Who would argue against that ? Make people feel good about themselves and they will be more agreeable in buying your product.

You had a valid point, but you couldn’t resist showing your true colors.

Now...I definitely see lots if mixed kids running with fat single mom, but I’m not counting those as couples since there’s no marriage.



Probably bc you live in Alabama

Its a lot more a regular thing in other parts of the country.

You would shite a brick on a military base

I figured it’s because people are more likely to buy something if they see somebody who looks like them using the product. Easiest way to cover most of the United States is to show one person from each of the top represented races.

This makes too much sense for baws around here. They want the good ol' days when they could threaten, intimidate, and coerce white women to the point where they would not dare date outside their race,

Too bad they fail to realize that women are driven by the biological imperative to secure the best possible genes for their offspring. And- with the exception of the last couple of centuries- they have done so for for hundreds of millenia.

It's virtually scripted how this goes.

Person 1- "Miscegenation is wonderful and good."

Person 2- "I'm not convinced it's good and don't appreciate it being presumed so in pop culture."

Person 1- "racist"

It’s everywhere on TV, and they always show a really hot chick as opposed to the 350 pound ones.
