L’Oreal Will Remove Words Like ‘Whitening’ from Skin Products
Breitbart - Entertainment ^ | 6-28-2020 | Breitbart News

(AP) PARIS – French cosmetics giant L’Oreal said Saturday that it will remove words like “whitening” from its skin care products, a move that comes amid global protests against racism sparked by the death of George Floyd in the United States.

The company said in a statement Saturday that it “has decided to remove the words white/whitening, fair/fairness, light/lightening from all its skin evening products.”

L’Oreal’s decision follows a similar move by Anglo-Dutch firm Unilever on Thursday. It is among a number of companies that have been the target of criticism in the wake of Floyd’s death following his arrest in Minneapolis.

Earlier this month, L’Oreal tweeted that it “stands in solidarity with the Black community and against injustice of any kind. … Speaking out is worth it.”

Does this mean that White Women will have to start using the Woman of Color Aisle at Walmart now?

Will they be putting pictures of White People on all those Hair Straitening Products now?

Will they be marketing Dew Rags to White Women now?

If Colonel Sanders was a Black Man, would KFC have taken his Face off all their Buckets?

Questions, questions, questions...

Just substitute either of the following:
#FFFFFF
255,255,255

Example: Your teeth will be #FFFFFFer than ever.

Or will these be eliminated from all image processing programs?

Crest, Colgate, Tom’s of Maine, Aquafresh etc etc etc- all must remove ‘whitening’ from their teeth whitening products

What shall we call it now? ‘Teeth blackening’ ‘Teeth Darkening’? Just to be PC now?

Anyway, tell that to all the young women / June Brides that they can’t wear white, unless they want to be associated with racism.

lol

Yeah I should put a disclaimer that my statement only hold true if Trump wins.

Then I think maybe the opposite would happen. There would be no one to destroy so there wouldn’t be the pressure to do this nonsense.

And it is all nonsense.

I’m sure a lot of black people would die laughing at this “whitening” thing.

Not enough of them, but a lot.

Clouds, snow, white wine, swans, cotton balls, milk, the White Sox, even Old Glory are officially racist. The color white must be stricken from nature and the word white from our language. The gyrations the radical left is imposing on us must truly amuse them, especially since all they really want is to to cut our throats!

Does this mean that blackface is in?

These people are pathetic.

This is satire, isn’t it? It could be, but who can tell anymore.

See my tagline.

It is a small group of elites trying to cram propaganda down our throats.

They can go f^%$ themselves.

They need to eliminate negative phrases such as “dark clouds”, “black clouds” and “the dark of night” and many other similar phrases with negative connotations.

No more dark clouds hanging over your head. Might need to change that to white clouds hanging over your head.

I hope that they get rid of tanning products too. Can’t have any melanin appropriation going on either. In fact, they really need to stop producing any colored cosmetic products or hair colors. Clear only! Has the world gone insane?
