Ah ok, so it has NOTHING to do with this thread, where the man was fired because he was white.

Thanks for clearing it up so quickly.

Well, to be fair, you do see a good number of white women. They're married to the black men. You see it in commercials and you see it on regular TV shows. All the time.

The gorilla in Sing was voiced by Taron Egerton who is a white guy from Britain. The gorilla family characters were portrayed as blue collar working class from England. Did we watch the same movie?

Which is funny since 75% of black women who had kids aren't married.

I guess black men prefer white women? Is that what the commercials are showing? Kinda racist.

I've actually noticed the opposite. It is black women with white men in commercials and tv/movies. Even going back to the Jeffersons, the one couple was white man/black women.

Yes, definitely. They even replaced Jake from State Farm with a black guy.

Yet another example of anti-white racism. I've read that "Jake From State Farm" was a real employee named Jake, and State Farm decided that they wanted a professional actor for future commercials. OK, that's fine. I have no problem with choosing a professional actor, and I have no problem with who they chose. But why did they have to give him Jake's identity? Why couldn't they have made him Jake's coworker Jack, or something? Had they done that, I wouldn't have cared in the least. But they basically "whitewashed" (pun intended) Jake by changing his race from white to black. Like I said, yet another example of anti-white racism.

Good Lord. WTF does Musk have to with this thread? Seriously?

This is very obvious, just count on your fingers. Exceptions are extremely rare. The male membrt of a couple is always darker than the female, unless both are white.

That's true, there's that to. It's as though these commercials have an agenda.
