It’s their “nice” way of promoting white genocide.

Wouldn't social engineering also include discrediting interracial relationships for the sake of race purity?

That's a fair assessment

I don’t see many of the relationships involving folks who meet on J-Date.

That is nurture, not nature. Raise a black kid in a functional environment and he will turn out fine.

It’s been proven that 70%+ of behavior is genetic, and some studies indicate it’s in the 90s.

To ignore genetic differences between racial groups is suicide.

They are trying to market to everyone, simple as that.

What's odd about it? The more races you can squeeze in a commercial, the broader your appeal to the subconscious of the public.

Interracial couples have gained widespread acceptance to the point they're not going to throw you off in an ad, so a black dad, a white mom, and some kids with a skin tone that could lead you to believe they're Hispanic checks alot of boxes.

Because Anthony Weiner likes tweeting dick pics.

If I would have read two more replies I would have seen someone already said what I said and did it more succinctly.

But breeding within your own “tribe” is normal, natural behavior, enforced by millennia and nature.

You have mixing in certain situations (usually involving armies and rape) but by far the norm is breeding with others like you.

That’s how we have diversity. It isn’t a bad thing.

I think the thing people have a problem with is the overrepresentation of the phenomena.



So let’s get give it a bump. Let’s be generous and say 20% now are interracial.

Blacks make up 13% of the population.

So maybe 5% of all relationships in the us are black/white interracial.

Yet I seems like 50% of the couples on TV commercials are.

Personally, I think people should be free to love who they love (although the intelligence of some of these couplings is evident in the fallout, but that’s another story altogether.)


But let’s not pretend that those who control media are over representing a minority of relationships.

I think it's a bit ridiculous to say that someone bought a product because the commercial had an interracial couple in it. I don't care that these ad companies do it, but it does seem to be pushed a lot.

Yes, they want to normalize and impose their vision of what is right onto the rest of society.

Only their norms matter even though they pay lip service to cultural diversity.


I tend to agree, but I don't believe interracial commercials are a great example.

That’s a bit obtuse isn’t it? I mean the race of the person shouldn’t sell the product. And I don’t think there’s a racial quota for commercials.

shite, if we don’t represent 13% of the population in 100% of our culture we are all assholes.

I'm sure someone has already said, but it's social engineering...make it the norm. Young children will grow up thinking it's normal. They don't care if they piss you off...they are after your children and grand children.



Are you pissed when you see an interracial couple? Why?

The rising number of single motherhood is very noticeable. Admittedly its worse amongst Blacks, but not exclusive to Blacks.


Mostly a myth. The amount of children born to single mothers hasn't increased a ton over the past 30-40 years. The "problem" is that married couples are having fewer children, so the ratios are all jacked up.
