Pop Culture, Commercials, and White Guys

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.
5, 4, 3, 2, 1...Welcome humblegunner.
well done article. all one needs to do is watch a few minutes of tv commercials to see how white men are perceived by liberals.
I wonder if they’ve started to ask themselves why nobody is interested in their product anymore.
Nah, they know they’re right.
It’s all part of tearing down anything that has succeeded so far, especially culturally (religion, family, work ethic, literacy, etc.)
(Of course, they have to demonize or scapegoat it to sell said destruction)
Then, they promise the utopia will appear (apparently magically, because they never seem to get that part right)
Don’t feed the trolls.
“Whites, and white men in particular, are generally seen as squares.”
I didn’t watch the video, but it’s much worse than squares. We are portrayed as complete idiots. When a product is advertised, the people/families using the “wrong” product are white and completely f**ked up because of it. Meanwhile, the black family down the street has their act together... totally.
When I lived in California I went to a McDonalds in the Walmart store. Huge, attractive posters on ALL the walls portraying happy people and families — about 10 of them. Not ONE had a Caucasian in it. I went home and wrote a letter to the manager, reminding her that if not for Caucasians there wouldn’t be a country, this store, her job, etc.
Surprisingly, she responded that she hadn’t noticed that issue with the posters, and apologized. Within a couple of weeks... some NEW POSTERS!
I stopped watching teevee in early 2008 when I got tired of the advertisers and entertainers pretending white people didn’t exist.
Still see it when I apply for jobs online and see the photos of the smiling staff working together with maybe one white man standing in the back (and questionably gay).
Oh, yeah... doesn’t that ad totally piss you off? It’s just HORRIBLE!
That is completely accurate.
Good job.
It is about time we started asserting the primacy and superiority of Western Culture.
The world as we know it is the product of some clever, white, western Europeans and is far better off for it.
I know...I keep trying to make them pets.
“Whites, and white men in particular, are generally seen as squares”
Just look at all the interracial couples out there . More and more white women have fallen for this crap . My niece , white , has ONLY black friends/ boyfriends , and according to her mother ( I live in Japan so haven’t a clue ) she isn’t the only one in her school / neighborhood .
This White man has nothing to prove except to his wife and kids - could care less what the deficient emotionally crippled social misfits think is supposed to be important....
I saw the movie "Logan's Run" the other day. It was set in the future. There were no black people in it. I guess white people ain't planning on us being around in the future."
Playing to their perceived audience. Generally, (hopefully) whites aren’t going to be caught dead in a wal mart McDonald - the food is for poor people. I’m sure it must have been a hunger emergency
Excellent idea. My brother asked a lawyer friend if he noticed how Africans were in every ad on TV in a portrayal of supremacy, when they are only 13% of the population. Carl responded, he hadn’t really noticed as he scratched his head thinking, you know, he’s right.
