Pop Culture, Commercials, and White Guys
by Dystopic | Oct 14, 2017 | Culture War, SJWs | 12 comments
It isn’t difficult to find people complaining about how “people of color” are treated in America today. Turn on the TV, and you’ll see highly-paid NFL players lamenting this. White liberals are constantly bashing “whiteness”, and attending lectures and classes wherein white people are variously termed devils, demons, oppressors, or some other thing. It is the same for men in general, as opposed to women.
Whites, and white men in particular, are generally seen as squares. They can’t dance, can’t sing, are uncool, lame, stupid, and as the famous movie title once explained for us, white men can’t jump. If white men do anything interesting or cool, it will be seen as cultural appropriation, denounced as racism, or become an Obama “you didn’t build that” situation. White people either have no culture (that link is interesting, because many white American liberals genuinely believe that they have no culture), or their culture is based primarily on white supremacy.

I hate that ad!
Do they really think it will entice some father to buy their pizza for his family?
Whatever happened to respect for your parents?
It is awful.
My wife sort of followed the program-and I used to really pizz her off when it came on.
I would watch the start of the show and when the first white guy came on screen, I'd tell my wife "that's the guy that did it". She'd tell me that I was nuts, but...
I think that my crime fighting formula was wrong only once.
Probably should have gone into police work.
It seems many younger white women get involved with non-white men because the men simply aren’t interested. The women “settle” - not because the guys are non-white, but because they are usually low-life types (no jobs or training, and no financial plan beyond spending the white dopes’ money). Those guys are sex toys for white women forced into the role of white men; many simply end up on the dole rather than prove their “equality”.
And black women were the majority of tech CEO’s, surgeons, and investment bankers.
Your lawyer friend probably didn’t notice because he probably doesn’t spend much time in front of TV - and many whites that watch TV use options that remove much of the advertising.
At this point Hollywood movies are just 2-hour extensions of the same nonsense - problems caused by white guys being resolved by intelligent blacks and compassionate perverts.
Good point/
That is a form of slavery.
How do sub-Saharan appear?
If aliens watched only commercials to understand our culture, they would think blacks were 60 percent of the population and the smartest most accomplished, gays were 40 percent, white females preferred black men, black women were 10 percent of the population....and white men were either stupid or robbers.
Amen, amen and amen!!!!!!
I cancelled cable going on 18 months ago and don’t watch any “network” shows (I usually only watch “oldies” movies/shows that show the America I know/knew).
I stopped paying to be insulted while simultaneously funding the very entities that hate my (Christian, White, Heterosexual) existence.
“While I have to explain this propaganda to my white sons (easy to do - they live in a world where just about everything is made and maintained by white men),”
Show them Rhodesia from 40+ years ago and Zimbabwe today. Or pre-1967 Detroit. :(
If you see the anti-tobacco ads where a black woman exposes the push to peddle death in black areas, you realize she should be waging the same campaign against fast-food chains. I loved the stuff in my younger days, and am shocked at how little it appeals to my teen children. Like soda, it is just another unhealthy thing that targets low-information people.
White people can see for themselves that the black “Leave It To Beaver” depictions don’t match the reality around them; at that point you realize this isn’t an idea being sold to whites, but to BLACKS - they should be “acting white” because McDonalds said so.
We run the world pretty well.
White liberals suffer from culture blindness! They can’t see their own culture.
“Do they really think it will entice some father to buy their pizza for his family? Whatever happened to respect for your parents?”
Just shows how spoiled, entitled American children have become insufferable brats. When I was that age (don’t you hate when people say that?!?), we were happy for any food Dad and Mom provided for us. And if any of the farmers in Dad’s congregation left a bushel of tomatoes on the back porch... life was good!

There was a study done (albeit decades ago) the whites really don’t see race in ads. Blacks ARE more likely to buy if they see a black person in the ad. So why wouldn’t you fill your commercials with black faces. Not blackface mind you...
According to many TV ads, they also cannot cook, run a dishwasher or fend for themselves in any way and would starve, drooling in the corner if the female is away from home for any extended period.
I’ve shared with them a pic posted by a FReeper, which shows Rome 2,000 years ago and thatched huts in Africa today. Brilliant!
While these attacks are a bad thing, there is a positive side to the PC BS; when my company started advancing token females into higher positions (not ethnic minorities - only white women; this is NJ after all), it allowed me to drastically reduce my hours worked - a nice de facto hourly raise. The tokens don’t even play the part; they still work the bare minimum as they did before. As long as white guys have the knowledge, they can use this to their advantage.
Commercials really tick me off, and I’m not even male. I saw one where a couple of dumb, goofy white males are camping out in a store’s parking lot. There’s a big sale going on, and they want to be first in line when the store opens. Cut to a black woman shopping INSIDE the store. She looks out the big picture window at the white guys and shakes her head in pity and disgust. SHE is smart enough to know that the store is open 24 hours a day.
Another ad showed an attractive, prosperous looking black couple along with the typical commercial goofy white male. The three of them are near a cliff taking photos of the view. They all have the same camera, but of course Dummy White Male paid far too much for his because he shopped at the wrong store. While trying to take a picture, the clumsy white male tumbles off the ledge and plunges to injury or death below. Ha ha ha, we’re supposed to find this funny. The black couple just shrugs and continues taking their photos! Why should they stop to help or call for assistance for the guy who fell off the cliff? He’s ONLY a white male.
There are numerous examples like this, and I’m sick and tired of it. How do they expect whites to buy their products?
