White People in Ads is Racist
Front Page Magazine ^ | August 1, 2025 | Daniel Greenfield

What really is and isn’t eugenics.

Somewhere on Madison Avenue an ad exec pitched his boss on an edgy proposal. “Let’s do a generic jeans ad, but put an attractive white woman in it.” TikTok influencers, who had come of age after 2019 (and the last time a white person appeared in an ad) had their minds blown.

The media declared that the American Eagle ad, a company founded by Jews and currently run by a philanthropist who funds translations of the Bible, was the second coming of the Third Reich. Supporters of Planned Parenthood, an organization founded by actual eugenicists with ties to the KKK and later Nazi Germany, claimed that the ad’s pun on genes was eugenics.

No, it’s not. That would be ACLU patron saint Clarence Darrow, who helped killers escape the death penalty, declaring, “chloroform unfit children. Show them the same mercy that is shown beasts that are no longer fit to live.” Darrow was one of many progressive icons rallying to the cause of Dr. Harry J. Haiselden who had become famous for letting disabled babies die.

“The world is already flooded with unhappy, unhealthy mentally sound people who should never have been born,” Helen Keller, who appeared blind and deaf to irony, wrote. “We can prevent the birth of more such unfortunate people and must prevent it.” She hailed “the death of the defective baby permitted by an enlightened surgeon in Chicago” and argued that “no one cares about that pitiful, useless lump of flesh.” Keller then went on to praise Planned Parenthood.

That, not a jeans ad joking about genes, is eugenics.

Population control programs derived from eugenics, including Planned Parenthood, continue operating globally to this day. Their spinoffs include euthanasia programs that kill babies born with disabilities or medical problems, like Charlie Gard...

The population of the USA is already over-regulating itself.

They are afraid that White Guilt is running on empty. People can only be the target of hate for so long before they commit to self defense. Black fatigue is real .

Me neither. I knew she was a socialist but I didn't know she supported killing imperfect babies.

It’s almost as if there are folks in the media who don’t much like the White folk. I haven’t a clue who that could be. I’m no Columbo.

All I know is that on pharmaceutical commercials the doctor has to played by a black woman and on other commercials, the ceo of corporations has to be played by a black male. Oh, and if an uninformed buffoon is needed, it’s gotta be played by a balding white guy.

She’s glorious. This was the line that stood out to me.

“The problem is that the jeans ad features a white person and under BLM rules, white people are no longer allowed in ads unless it is as part of an interracial couple or as a cautionary tale of what happens when you don’t buy the right detergent, toothpaste or infanticide solution.’’

Woke, formerly political correctness is not dead. But people are tiring of it. Shaved head, nose ringed black women slobs don’t cut it.

My white guilt is empty. I’m 71, and don’t have any more time to waste. I’m trying to stay healthy and productive while paying down debts before I retire. I’ve resigned myself to doing it without any help from my spendthrift spouse who continues to enable our oldest son unable to take responsibility for his life and finances.

I acknowledge my responsibility for my role in this situation, so I deal with it the best I can. I work for a great company and love my coworkers. I don’t feel sorry for myself, and I have no time or inclination to feel guilty for others’ problems, particularly those who blame Whitey.

Whites are daring to be proud of being White. Whites are supposed to bow down in submission to the great god of woke and beg forgiveness for being White and wish they were dead. But they aren’t. The left is going crazy. The left thought they had Whites trained. The Whites rebelled.

If the left had its way, the ad would have celebrated a fat ugly-a$$ trans with blue hair with the words “be less white.”

It’s a huge step in the right direction. Next we need ads with White men who aren’t effeminate or idiots.
