Chit-Chat-Rant: Dining out at a popular restaurant/bar I happened to notice a weird Amazon Prime commercial on one of the TV screens...
04/19/23 | Self

Posted on 04/19/2023 5:49:25 PM PDT by know.your.why

The commercial depicts a woman with unwanted facial hair...a mustache. Instead of ordering a hair removal product from Amazon Prime, she has visions of her looking like the late rock star Freddie Mercury and she orders a flashy leather jacket so she can imitate Mercury. I've long gotten rid of my TV at home. I feel like I've been in some kind of cave or shelter or something. Rant /off. FReep /on.

I don’t know how many versions of that commercial I have seen its just dumb. One of the reasons I record all the shows I watch fastforward thru commercials.

Lord yes, I''m seen that creepy commercial. I'm not sure if she is supposed to be a boy or a girl or transgender. It's normal for a lot of women to have a little lip fuzz, but if you are a dark brunette sometimes it is more noticeable. There are dozen of products that remove it. Not a big deal.

But instead of dealing with the "problem", it goes a shopping spree and buys new clothes. Yep that will solve all your problems.   < /sarc >

Yuck. I never watch TV but I also occasionally see stuff in restaurants or elsewhere and it’s going from bad to worse.

I don’t understand these woke companies. Didn’t they see what happened with Bud (granted, owned by a foreign company)?

I guess Amazon is gambling on the fact that most of the US now orders goods online rather than going to understocked and often even dangerous retail stores and will just shrug it off. Which of course we will.

Popular backlash can damage a brand, but I doubt that it could damage Amazon. That said, why the heck is this minuscule percentage of the population getting so much power?

Well I’m going to play devil’s advocate.

That girl has a bit of hair on her upper lip. She can’t help it. And since you’re bringing up deities, God put the hair there.

So then, is it her obligation to remove the hair? Just because society says so? Or it it wrong for her to just embrace how God made her?

And by the way... there’s no hint in the commercial that she’s Transgendered. Just a girl with some unfortunate facial hair.

Her vocals are, imo notably superior to Fredie Mercury’s attempted falsetto rendering.

“That said, why the heck is this minuscule percentage of the population getting so much power?”

“As the example of the Arcus Foundation shows, the LGB civil rights movement of yore has morphed into a relentless behemoth, one that has strong ties to the medical industrial complex and global corporatists. The pharmaceutical lobby is the largest lobbying entity in Congress. Although activists present the LGBT movement as a weak, powerless group suffering oppression and discrimination, in truth it wields enormous power and influence—power it increasingly uses to remake our laws, schools, and society.” *****Jennifer Bilek

Nope. Its a girl. Look close. No adam’s apple. Just a girl with a slightly hairy upper lip.

I got rid of my TV about 5 years ago. I don’t miss it at all. But I do get some unpleasant surprises now and then. Society is doomed.
