if you ever want to read seriously about this stuff then dive into materials either from, or about, Edward Bernays the father of modern PR. He was the forefather of modern marketing basing his programs on the thought that irrational behaviors drive consumer spending. He created the "bacon and eggs breakfast", thrust cigarettes upon women, and created the handbook to manipulate the masses.
Some things in life have always fascinated me. Why people don't mind their own business, the mafia
(who I believe are more trustworthy than our government) and why otherwise rational people do the
things they do.

Never heard of Edward Bernays before today. Looks like he may shed some insight into how people
become stupid. Thanks for sharing.

if you ever watched Mad Men they created Don Draper's character based on Bernays. He made companies market to Americans desires, not needs. Women don't NEED to smoke but he realized that they wanted to feel equal to men so he created cigarette campaigns that empowered women to smoke and called cigarettes Torches of Freedom.

He believed everyone can be trained to want stuff they don't need...you just needed to tap into their desires and not their needs

Who the fuck watches commercials anymore? I’ll be the first to admit that I don’t notice this stuff but again, I rarely watch commercials anymore. If you’re offended nowadays by some stupid commercial, you have a problem.
Im mostly offended by the left trying to shove certain things down peoples throats all the time & always looking to control everybody,everything & what & how they think & act through the media.....Maybe you just cant see it but if youre not offended by that then youre the one that has the problem...

Understood. I was a marketing major, then VP for a few FF 100 companies.
I believe this is far deeper than the marketing aspect here.

even cameramen are trained to look for diversity in the stands for us

wow....seems if you boys were to organize your own ad agency and stock it with a stable of healthy, good looking, straight white men and women to handle all the on-camera work, you could crush this misguided industry which clearly is making a long list of dubious marketing decisions

It's called the United States. It was civilized and about 90% European.

I don't see you scrambling to live in a savage 3rd world country. You keep this up and the US will become a dump heap. Not very hard to figure out.... unless you're an idiot.

Rolltide missed the boat 100% yet once again. He's not focusing on the source. Bernays was part of the ((problem)). Just look at his family history.

Serbone, if you're serious, I'd recommend you take a look at Eustace Mullins.

In particular, take a gander at a book he wrote on ((Biology)).

Good luck.... if you're truly interested.

13% of the population is AA, and estimate is that triple that (38%?) are on TV commercials. And they are always characterized as strong-smart-accomplished-classy-wise leaders, never a dummy-dweeb-follower-nerd-loser.

17% of the population is hispanic, and... wait... seems like less than 1% are on TV commercials.

Explain that.

runmaker will weigh in once Qanon tells him the answer. Until then, he blames the Jews

Hispanics have a much more similar look to whites. When a black person isn't there it is more noticeable. They choose blacks to make the diversity more obvious. Also, blacks will whine way more than hispanics and demand it must be racist

One of the reasons is that AA's are organized, funded, have a long standing narrative to leverage and for several years they have actively contacted corporations about the racial mix on their commercials, and threaten protests based upon racism, bigotry.
This is powerful.
Just a tip of the iceberg, but a few times, I have seen AA bow tie college professor activists on TV bragging about it.
CEO's live in fear of a mob of AA's in front of their building underneath their company logo, protesting.
This is one of the reasons.

Rolltide is too stupid to realize that I used his point (Bernays) to make my point. And emphatically.

My favorite is the two black guys stopping the evil white males from harassing other white women. And the white guy harassing the black teacher. What dimension does this happen in?

It is everywhere.
The question is, that no one will touch: WHO/WHAT is forcing them?
