Sarah Silverman wants brands to stop calling their 'exclusively Caucasian' products 'nude'
Yahoo Lifestyle ^ | March 16, 2019 | Erin Donnelly

Sarah Silverman has a bone to pick with how certain household items are labeled — and she’s calling for more diversity.

The comedian took to Twitter to point out that products like pantyhose and bandages come in shades marked as “nude,” though the peachy-beige tone really only applies to some white people.

“I can’t [expletive] believe that there are still ‘nude’ bras and nylons and Band Aids,” she wrote. “If you are a company still using nude to describe an exclusively Caucasian shade in 20[expletive]19 you need to change now or go tha way of zee dinosaur.”

I’m wondering if anyone in the universe cares what potty mouth silverman thinks. I know I don’t.

Is there a shade called “Attention Whore”?

To steal a line from the sidekick of a former radio personality...Sarah Silverman is a walking yeast infection.

He remarked that he did not know anyone that color.

Exactly. And if I ever found myself that color, I'd head straight for the doctor.

Cause brains are too mushy for door stops. Course an atrophied, calcified one like she’s got, it might just work!

They can just start calling those items, especially bras and stockings, "Caucasian" or, for those so inclined to use it, "White Devil."

My son liked the Spongebob Band-Aids when he was little. Those work on all skin hues. For adults -- maybe make them sports-themed, maybe flowers for women (or for others who like flowers.) Make some in gold so they'll look like jewelry. The possibilities are limitless. Heck, people might start wearing band-aids even when they don't have a wound, as a kind of fashion statement.

Whatever color of pantyhose you choose, Sarah, do the world a favor and wear it over your head.

Well, I saw the “Male Pale” right up there next to the “Man Tan” down at Walgreen’s the other day.

No!!!

YUCK!!!

An ugly lesbian!!

The worst kind!

Bro, I’m 50 but I am SO OUT OF TOUCH with the world it’s not funny. I get my news here :)

I don’t work in Manhattan, I live and work on Staten Island, I’ve seen enough action in my life to want the rest of it to be Very Quiet and Very Peaceful.

I don’t feel like i’m missing a thing.

Like Guns N Roses says in “One in a Million”

“i’m a small town white boy, just trying to make ends meet” :)

But your response clears things up for me!

I want the media to stop calling Sarah Silverman human and funny. She is neither.

And the last thing I’d ever want in life is to see her “nude”. My goodness! Haven’t we suffered enough from just her mouth?

My eyes! My eyes have seen the gory of the coming of Silverman. She is blinding all the people and destroying all the land. She is worse than random lightning and has fungus on her hands. Her stupidity goes marching on.

Start a freaking company and name your products whatever you want. Until then, STFU.

It’s like they SJW leftist idiots lay awake at night trying to think of something to be outraged about.

The world should tell them to STFU in unison.
