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,

......."obviously trying to make us accept as normal the false depiction of life that they show us"........

When I see them in retail commercials I figure they're showing them the next target to smash and rob....and or loot.

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.

Do you think Liberty Mutual would ever replace Doug with a black guy the way State Farm did with Jake? Of corse not! They need a stupid acting character to play Doug. Wouldn't dare put a black into that kind of character.

“Cartoons?! Now you're just being willfully ignorant.”

Me? You're the one who said TV is not 95% people. So, you're either talking about cartoons or National Geographic.

My sense of self-worth was determined many decades ago, and is not in the least dependent on TV. But I recognize signs that bode ill for the future of my country, and the denigration of and cancellation of whites in American society set the stage for some bad shit, as history has clearly shown (whether the targets be whites, blacks, Jews, gypsies, or whatever). Because once that denigration and cancellation becomes acceptable, then the shit gets real, and real fast. Right now it has not quite reached the acceptable stage — and hopefully it won't ever get there. But, who would have thought, ten years ago, FIVE years ago, that cancel culture, CRT, and the like would have become pretty much mainstream in 2022? It didn't happen in a vacuum; it didn't happen overnight. It's been brewing in our schools for decades, but for years it just floated at the surface, or just below; then, it took root in entertainment; now it's at full boil, and is present in government, business, the churches, even families themselves. But, I guess you are okay with that. Is it because you hope they'll come after you last? Reverend Martin Niemoller had something to say about that. And, to paraphrase Mark Twain (at least it is attributed to him): "History may not repeat itself, but it sure rhymes." So, you can continue on in your own special, blissful way, and -- who knows? -- maybe they will eat you last. But, get eaten, you will, EVEN IF YOU ARE ONE OF THEM!

So you think these ads are for blacks to see they too can live a normal American Life?

I see the ads as showing them which market they can target for their next looting or theft venture. The latest car to hijack etc.

I said no longer. Which is the whine of this thread. If you’re disputing that you’ve got nothing.

Denigration has always been normal. One of the primary sources of western humor dating back the ancient Greece has been laying low the powerful. Nothing new or interesting about that.

Cancel culture is overrated. People talk about it, yet most of the big “canceled” figures are still producing. Louis CK is on tour, Mel Gibson is making movies.

CRT is also overrated. Most of what they’re talking about is real stuff. It’s generally been pretty crappy to be a black person in most of western history. But then the complaining white people crowd take one sentence out of context and blow it up. Like you keep doing.

Nobody is coming after anybody. That’s paranoid BS.

If you look closely at the bottom right hand side of their “new” syrup bottles, in tiny letters it says “same as aunt jamima”. Prolly on the pancake mix as well.

Yes. The pancake box entitled “Pearl Milling Company” says below next to “Aunt Jemima”: “New name; same great taste.”

Actually, I see an upside to the continuous manipulation of whoever and whatever is the target of leftist propaganda. People from outside the US who are new to this country learn, from any number of source's, the ways and customs of the people who live here. If they will be swayed by what they see on the media, they will also be influenced by what is unsaid but presented as possible. Blacks are just part of what I have seen. Latinos and mixed races are common as well. As with white actors, it seems all of the actors are quite nice looking. Not beautiful, just normal and achievable.
Perhaps I see this glass as half full, not empty.

I decided to turn the sound down on every commercial with black people just to see how often it occurred.

Now I just automatically mute all commercials 🤪

I completely tuned out since it appears none of these products are for white people.

“Why are Caucasians vanishing in TV commercials?”

I don’t know, but do they reappear somewhere?

That’s important.

“Nobody is coming after anybody.”

Hmmm. Bakers who are sued into bankruptcy because they sought to exercise their right to believe in their faith; mothers and fathers who are attacked for questioning what their kids are taught in school; denial of or back-of-the-line status for medical treatments based on race or ethnicity; solitary confinement for crimes someone is not even charged with. Do you want me to continue?

Whenever you speak, something is subtracted from the sum total of human knowledge.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA

You believe all the random shit out there don’t you. Every one of those cases have other things going on. Like the banker breaking the law. The mother and father starting some idiot protest in school board meetings. As for solitary for folks not charged, welcome to the Patriot Act pal, that’s been happening to people of ALL races since that hunk of garbage got passed.

Well it’s clear. You’re just a paranoid cracker upset cause black people is on your TV. We’re done. Got better things to do. Have the last word. Don’t care what it is. You’re wrong.

I pretty much agree with your assessment. We can only hope and pray that this Socialism/Fascism stage is brought to a screeching halt.
