It never ends.

People want to watch TV shows to escape from reality, not be introduced to more political BS.
It has always been so.Remember All In The Family, MASH, Maude, Soap, Laugh-in, Benson, Murphy Brown, West Wing..... I could go on forever. It has become blatant, but it has always been there.

Watch something like Full House enough and your brain will lose its ability to analyze political events.

Democrats don't know anything other than acting with malice.



They take their lead from the book "Rules for Radicals".



They despise this country and at least half of it's voters.



They have been trying to turn this country into something else for a long time.



For years I've been saying they they are intentionally trying to wreck the economy so they can present socialism/communism as the "solution".



They think if things get bad enough then people will be more likely to go along with their radical plans.



This county was infiltrated by communists as Joe McCarthy tried to express long ago.



They slowly took leadership positions in politics, media and the education system.



They played the long game and it's starting to bear fruit.



They flooded this country with third world leaches that don't give a flying fck about our nation and it's values.



They filled the minds of our children with anti-American propaganda.



They've got our kids so confused and disheartened that they don't even know if they are boys or girls.



The left has been aggressively fighting the culture war while the Republican party sat around playing with their d*ks.



They are destroying our nation and pissing on our history, traditions and values.



They do all this in plain sight while daring someone to stop them










WAKE UP

That is EXACTLY what I meant by "it is working"


And nope...before some of you whip out your bed sheets you think I should wear...no, I do not have a problem with seeing mixed couples anywhere...but I know why corporations are going overboard on woke culture imagery.

The gender-inclusive bathroom stuff is a different topic all on its own. I'll discuss that separately. However, as far as having interracial couples and people of every race in commercials, I really don't see how anyone could be bothered by that, except for having a bigoted mindset. I personally don't see why I should have a problem with commercials that have people of every race in it. No one has given me a reason as why I should be bothered by it.

I'm going to be blunt. I can't relate to what you're talking about. I really don't get why I should be more afraid or thinking along the same lines that you are thinking along.

It will end tragically in disaster.

You can only ram unpopular agendas down the throats of the public for so long.

Not sure anyone is angry. It is really difficult to ignore the agenda and the social engineering, though. I find it fascinating.

Why do you think all of the interracial families in commercials are white/black? Even though those are 4% of interracial marriages, that is 100% what you see on TV. 43% of interracial marriages are white/Hispanic. I can recall 0% of those marriages represented in TV commercials. No Asian/Hispanic, no Asian/Black, no Hispanic/Black...why is that? (I don’t watch that many shows so may have missed those in shows vs. commercials).

To extrapolate further, shows like “This is Us” is white/black. Even more pronounced is the “Bridgertons” series, set in Britain in the early 1800s, where the producers made the English Duke black on purpose. Of course there were no African British Dukes. They could have easily made him Japanese or Iranian. Furthermore, there are shows with black casts....I can’t think of any shows that are all Hispanic or all Asian and are on mainstream channels.

I don’t think it is bigoted to ask questions about this. Why are black people the only race that is being socially engineered in this way? Genuinely curious.
