Why are Caucasians Vanisihing in TV Commercials?
American Thinker.com ^ | January 8, 2022 | Jacob Fraden

Commercials take up 27% of commercial television screen time and are the main source of income for TV and radio stations. In most cases, advertisements on all channels appear simultaneously, so don't try to change the channel, there will be commercials elsewhere, too. Nowadays they have also taken over the Internet. For a financial support, websites have to run ads on their pages, the largest share supplied and controlled by Google. Ads pry into your eyes, unceremoniously interfere with text, and on YouTube, in the most inappropriate places they cut into the action of films, lectures and concerts, tearing apart musical performances. There's no escaping commercials, we've grown accustomed to them, and they become almost as much a part of our lives as food, toilets, and sleep.

In the United States today, the White population (not including Hispanics) is 57.8%. In real life Caucasians are still in the majority, but now on TV and the Internet they are swept under the rug like trash. Blacks compose 14% of the U.S. population but appear in 50% of commercials. White actors now appear for promotion of health insurance, gold, loans and some medicines. Moreover, if a White person appears in a commercial, he/she is usually old, sick, a freak, or at the very least, an appendage to a Black partner. If there's a doctor on the screen, he's usually Black, while the patient is usually White. Caucasian young men appear in only 4% of the commercials! If some aliens began to study the population of Planet Earth through our TV commercials they would have a somewhat distorted picture of Americans, to put it mildly.

So why do advertisers ignore the long-standing rules of marketing, and to the detriment of their own financial interests,

Advertisers are also perplexed that advertising isn’t working like it used to. Fact is, when white people see nothing but blacks in ads they know the ad is not targeted to them so they tune out. Go Woke, Go Broke.

It’s so blatant and bizarre, but the reason is obvious. Corporate private and public media is run by the same globalist cabal that runs the administrative state. To achieve control of the last bastion of patriotic ethnic-European people in the world you have to first convince them that they are racist, hated, and in an extreme minority. Blacks make up 13% of the population and are easily the main characters in 80% of all TV commercials. Also, the majority of couples are black/brown men and lily-white women. Think it won’t work? Wait for it. Your children/grandchildren are soon going to be calling you a racist. Your crime? Learning about and being partial to your European heritage and not having enough black/brown friends.

The Vanishing Caucasian is not a new phenomenon. It's been going on for a long time in Hollywood product. Sort of like the Netflix series with the black guy who is supposed to be British nobility. I think the name of the show is Riverton or something like that. My wife did not appreciate it when I told her that the show was real history and the black guy was actually the Duke of Ellington.

And now there is some black girl on another cable channel who is supposed to be Anne Boleyn. Just as believable. But actual Puerto Ricans need to be Puerto Rican gang members in West Side Story.

Commercials don’t need to appeal to white people. We get everything we want for free just by using our white privilege.

“and on YouTube, in the most inappropriate places they cut into the action of films, lectures and concerts, tearing apart musical performances. There’s no escaping commercials “

Yes there is but on YouTube it will cost you $12.95/month (i hear tell there are also free methods). But it’s a libtard controlled site with heavy censorship (at least concerning Covid).

I rarely watch anything i haven’t recorded so i can skip all the stupid commercials. For entertainment i watch “ABC World Propaganda Tonight”. I skip right through the first five minutes, all the commercials and the fluff. You end up with maybe three or four minutes of actual news from a 30 minute program.

I’m not as concerned about the percentage of white people in commercials as I am in the number of emus in commercials. Limu Emu and Doug could disappear tomorrow and I wouldn’t miss them a bit.

Companies think that if they feed the wokeness alligator, it will eat them last.

Recently, I am seeing lots of Asians too, but mostly blacks.

<>"because white people have been conditioned to coddle minorities."<>

True dat! That is the reason I quit teaching in a huff.

I was expected to allow or ignore virtually any behavior from minorities (Black/Brown/LGBT).

And, whenever you do see a white guy, he is homosexual.

Geeze, WHO CARES. Really people STOP WHINING. I swear some idiot has retreaded this article every year for the last 20 years. It’s become the #1 beef of people who worry about stupid crap in the 21st century. “I want white people in my commercials”. Like it actually means anything. It doesn’t. Unless you’re weak and pathetic and just looking for reasons to feel marginalized.

Try that white privelege in California, and see if you can just walk out of a store with $950 in stolen goods, and no one says boo. Hell, they’ll shoot you.

I can’t believe they continue to find black actors for all the slots.

If someone dropped in from another planet and commercials gauged their impression they would think all of society is black.

The flood of .gov medicare and other commercials are just about all black.

Gone way too far.

People on government assistance have a guaranteed income and will vote to keep it so.

All that government money has to be spent somewhere.

So the marketing is designed to steer traffic and pander, while at the same time cozying up to the official mindset that keeps the gravy train rolling along.

It goes much deeper than commercials. It’s social conditioning.

The more they push the narrative, the more prejudice I become. And remember, being prejudice is not being racist, it just means I don't like it.
