Anyone get the holiday toy catalog in the mail yet from Target? Not one white boy in 80 some pages....maybe one or two white girls. A complete purge. This crap is getting way past out of hand everywhere. When did 15 percent of the population become 95 percent?

There is a bias against white men. TV commercials constantly depict black males with white, usually blonde, women. Notice how white males are usually depicted as boobs, while black men are depicted as dignified business men.
Nope
That’s what folks said twenty years ago
A bigger market
When it’s a black product they don’t include white characters
Under fifty college folk worship at the altar of race
As in fight racism
I don’t know. I have seen my parents with a great long life, well funded by SS and using what must be thousands and thousands of times the Medicare services that they ever paid into the system. Just lost my father, but mom is having a grand time in assisted living. Good food and friends, great care, and multiple daily activities.
But people don’t want to grow old, so it is not surprising that advertisers generally associate their products with youth. Also, people tend to be in their peak buying years in midlife, but they make a lot of brand commitments ahead of that, giving advertisers reason to skew even younger. And the younger you go the more diverse the population. Also, even going back decades ago, middle-class black men represented in commercials elicited warmth and sympathy across the board. So yet another reason to go in that direction. Finally, as Christian beliefs fade among the younger generations, political virtue signalling becomes something of a religious call to them as well. Yet another reason for such advertising.
"...notice how..."
Since 'Virtue Signaling' developed an inflation rate between the inflation rates of Zimbabwe and Venezuela.
"I am more diverse and inclusive than you are (except, of course, for never including those evil white-privileged males')"
Target’s still in business?????
The vast majority of interracial couples are Asian women and white guys, but you hardly ever see them in the media. It’s always back/white, which is still an oddity in real life. More so on the West Coast than other places. But the media has made a concerted effort to push black woman married to white man, something that’s still very rare. They also push homosexuals being “married”, normally in comedies with one always playing the sissified “wife.” It’s obnoxious.
<<Spare us your holier-than-thou pro-Target propaganda. You were calling girls who were not trannies in another post trannies.
Context matters, FRiend.
I’m not defending Target in the least, where did you get that idea? And holier-than-thou when I merely replied toward an unnecessarily hateful post toward children featured in toy catalogs?
If you have a problem with Target, TARGET THEM not the children who’ve done nothing wrong.
If you see children without their fully formed, gender ambiguous features, it is a sad thing that you automatically assume the worst - they’re transexuals. What kind of mentality is that? Your hatred of Target is poisoning your common sense.
As for my “tranny” comment you’re referring to, it was referring to fully grown liberal feminazis who literally did resemble trannies.
Go take your holier-than-thou posts elsewhere.
Funny thing is, you can’t get much whiter than Target, among the box stores... Other than an occasional one stuck in an urban neighborhood, the ethnicity makeup of the typical customers of most Target’s I’ve been in is about the same as a Ski Slope.
Yes, the powers that be really want to push the mixed couples I think because mixed children are seen as black either way. Blacks heavily tend to vote democrat and embrace pop hip hop poisonous culture unfortunately.
Thanks! That's all I wanted to know!

I see at least 5 white boys.
I guess they've mastered the art of using multiple fraudulent IDs to collect welfare and food stamps from multiple jurisdictions, getting free health care at the same time, driving without insurance, etc.
This behavior is common among almost every immigrant community.
There are plenty of kids of all colors and this is nothing searching for a something.
Start checking this out on your TV ads: The latest meme for advertisers of all kinds is interracial marriage, especially white/black intermarriage, which appear in far more ads than in the population.
Interestingly, most of these ads feature white men married to black women, a statistically minute part of the population, but this downplays any biases of whites and blacks about black men married to white women. Black women, especially upper class black women are historically biased against any eligible black men who marry white women.
No man WTF??!!?
They HAVEN’T changed what they implemented.
What’s the point of making a “statement” if the company is soaring again?
It’s not even a sacrifice!!
There’s another Target across the street called “Walmart”
At least they are doing a lot for our troops and not worrying about who is using the bathroom.
Though they do sell BLM shirts online. But it is what it is. Can’t find perfection.
But selling a terrorist organization’s shirts is pretty bad too!!
What’s Target?
“The Elderly tend to be warehoused in substandard facilities overseen by substandardly trained caregivers of every variety.”

Wrong!!!!!
Maybe some,but not the majority.
.
I guess their “reasoning” is blacks/minorities were under represented in ads 30 years ago.
So..just to make it fair they way under represent the “blue eyed devil”?
It’s like the movie the six sense..only its
I see white people.
