Mcdonald’s customer base is black and most of their workers, as far as I see are black so they cater to the blackness. I’m just shocked that they are dropping dei. when Disney drops it, that’s when you know that nonsense is dead.

That’s just absolutely ridiculous. I’ve lived in several East-Coast cities and I’ve never seen a Black worker at McDonald’s in my life, except for Caribbean Hispanics. In the East, McDonald’s is 100% Hispanic, probably mostly illegal immigrant. You’ll see them side-by-side Black-dominated Burger Kings.
HOLD ON: I looked up their demographics online. This is tricky, because the corporate workforce is way whiter (62%) than the franchisee workforce (31%), and I’m not sure how the franchisee workforce is estimated... but I think that’s the relevant one.
It’s 34% Hispanic, 31% White, 19% Black, 8% Asian (!), and 7% multi-racial.
What’s funny about these “Yo, homey” ads is that I mostly encounter them on “Dad rock” radio. I’m gonna not try to find statistics for how many black people listen to Dad rock radio, and instead just refer you to the thousands of videos with titles like “[Black guy] listens to [Pink Floyd, etc.] for the first time.”
