Because interracial couples produce the most attractive offspring, stop trying to upset the apple cart baw

I seriously don’t care about interracial couples. They don’t bother me in the least. If you find real love with someone of another race, congrats. Real love is hard to come by. Ask nobody’s permission. Go for it.

That being said, there very much is an agenda to promote it. You have to be deliberately blind and dishonest or very very young not to recognize that it is an agenda. It’s too blatant.


Just because I don’t care about interracial couples though doesn’t mean I still don’t like being manipulated.

They just want to push it right in our faces every chance they get. Also, notice the Muslim looking guys in commercials.

Yep. Interracial couples are more common in the media than most places here IRL.

@StupidWhiteAds is a great twitter account, it shows how dumb white men are made out to be in commercials.

I always assumed whatever race or gender or age is in the commercial is the demographic they believe buys their product.

Up until recently, you're right. But now many advertisers from breakfast cereal to BMW's apparently see their target audience as overwhelmingly non-caucasian, married, well educated, with two children, well-spoken folk who pull up to grandma's equally impressive house in their brand new Buick on Christmas morning. Not once have I seen baby daddy hop out of his car with his pants falling down around his arse.

In other words, are they really targeting the people their ads portray? Or are they showing us how up to the minute they are in current events?

Why would you do a commercial aimed at trailer parks and ghettos?

You aim it at people with money.


That's what we call marketing.

I'm aware of that. I may not have put my thoughts down well, and for that I apologize.

I've tried to say what I think in an acceptable way as to get my thoughts across without getting banned or into an arguement that I don't have the time or energy to get my point across.

I've been on here too long, and I'm too old to try to do this. I will concede that it doesn't really matter what i think, anyway.

Why is that so bothersome? Some of you stuck in the 50’s and 60’s?

Perhaps they reach two target audiences, blacks and whites.

I see no problem with commercials portraying a black middle class family instead of ghetto thug POSes.

Yes. Interracial couples are now part of Progressive Correct Thought. It is a bat signal from one Correct Thinker to another that everybody is safely Progressive and it's okay to break out the "I'm with her" t-shirt or casually say something like "Trump sold it all to The Russians, man" at the dinner table.

Which sucks for those of us who have been in interracial marriages for 20 +years and were just two human beings that fell in love and started a family. And now it's being used as a virtue-signaling statement of how powerful you want your Government to be.

White women like targeting the guys most likely to leave them alone with a kid I guess. Go for the 75-80%ers.

Maybe there are not enough white guys anymore since so many young ones are David Hoggs.

or maybe they are pandering because leftists have an organized "protest" structure ready to jump at any opportunity to scapegoat somebody for political gain.


The perfect confluence of leftist wet dream commercials would be an interracial couple beaten by a white B&E guy who got in because they didn't have a security system and then they go to a female minority doctor.

and to the "don't care" cool people - go ahead and swallow the slop you are fed
