Condoning genocide on whites, but when such atrocities are committed to other ethnic groups it's an abomination.
Oh the hypocrisy.
Last I heard, there were plenty of whites on Earth. The numbers might be diminishing slightly, and the numbers of white racists are and should be plummeting.
I think Cheerios marketing is genius. Sure, it doesn't relate well with most couples because inter-racial couples are not the norm. Sure, it angers racist white men but not nearly as much as it angers racist black women. Throw in a cute factor for the heart string tug and it gets attention.
What I do have a problem with is that in my opinion, Cheerios used race issues to market a product. Don't inter-racial couples have enough pressure? Isn't it difficult enough for this small percentage of couples to succeed?
How is showing an interracial couple "using race issues?" They exist, and they are just showing the reality.
The ad never mentioned race or anything else, just showed a family.

I suppose you heard wrong.
Whites consisted of almost a quarter of the worlds population barely 200 years ago. Now they make up less than 7%.

You're confused because this is an issue of morality, not reality. Reality is neither right nor wrong, morality on the other hand is rarely static and is open for interpretation.
If that were the case then why are comments being disabled by a youtube channel if "racists" are obsolete.
One person on youtube can comment a thousand times. Your average racist works -2 hours a week and couldn't find a date at a Turkish market and hence, they have a lot of time on their hands. That's why the comments are negative while the "likes" vs "dislikes" (you can only vote once for that) shows that overwhelming majority of Americans like the commercial.
Racists are indeed obsolete...but still around and annoying, and always will be. By all means, keep being a racist prick as opposing you makes us Marxists look good.
