As of 2026 the lack of white men in TV commercials has become blindingly obvious so White people are boycotting the products in these racist and racial commercials. In an attempt to do nothing about it the authorities have increased the number of non-Whites in everything so it seems natural to accept the dis-function of ghosting the descendents of the Founders of America. Many consumers and online commentators argue that white men are increasingly excluded from mainstream advertising, with many ads featuring People of Color (POC) or women as the primary subjects. When white men do appear in commercials, they are often depicted as incompetent, clueless, or “moronic” characters who need correction from women, children, or POC colleagues. Another problem is that all of the ads showing black people aren’t really representative of black people at all.
Isn’t it just a little bit racist of advertisers to tell us that blacks and other people of color must walk, talk, dress and behave like white people, and partake in activities favored by whites, in order to be successful?
If I didn’t know better, I’d say it almost feels like many of these commercials were written with white people in mind, and then black actors were hired for the sake of “diversity.”
We see it all the time: the upper-middle-class family wearing upper-middle-class clothes, living in an upper-middle-class home and doing upper-middle-class things, like attending piano recitals, or gaming with pals on razor-thin laptops, or having a backyard birthday party complete with pink princess decorations and a tent and giant bounce-house.
Authenticity is supposed to be a key component in advertising.
Well, right now there is nothing authentic about the way advertisers are representing — or not representing — different races and cultures in commercials.
Another big problem with this forced-diversity agenda is that it’s a bullshit game.
Because if brands and advertisers really cared about diversity and inclusivity and representing all races and cultures equitably, then they would put an honest effort into giving everyone their fair shake and especially into recognizing and respecting the differences in our cultures while bringing us together in our love for their brands.
Instead, most advertisers’ commitment to diversity is a shrill, cynical, and superficial charade dressed up in lip service and lofty “corporate values” that amount to precisely fuck-all when in fact, these companies with their gigantic ad budgets are in a unique position to actually do something positive for their customers, their country, and the public at large.
Remember, brands and advertisers: it’s not diverse or inclusive if it doesn’t include everybody.
As a matter of fact, what that is is actually racist. And insulting — not only to our cultures, but to our intelligence as well.
Which I guess should come as no surprise, as insulting people’s intelligence seems to be about all most advertisers are good for anymore.
Shame on you, advertising “professionals.” We see you. We see what you are doing, and no, we aren’t buying it at all.
