That's why people need to finally understand - and be fearful of - the dark side of human nature embedded in leftist compulsions. . every organization needs a leader,especially a family. there re two kinds of thinking, patriarchal and matriarchal. traditionally in most cultures women take the subservient role,though not always. the point is one of them is designated the leader who has final say and veto power. in our current state they are equals in decision mojgn processes, which mkes for continuous conflict without resolution. in my experience male children raised in families dominated by women do very poorly generally speaking, not well adapted to the challenges of life. islam is night about women. And what Islam thinks is wrong with women just happens to be what is destroying our culture and morality. lets put it this way, you wouldn't want to be gold digger who fooled around on her husband and then sucked him dry in a divorce in a Muslim country |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 69236336 United States 09/29/2019 04:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | HERE IS THE ANSWER. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69236336 It's directly driven by WHO is making the creative decisions. Trust me on this. I am a creative director. The film/advertising/media industry fancies itself as SO hip--so far out ahead of the neanderthals in the marketplace, they decide the reality all of us must drink in. Here's HOW it works. A company contracts with an agency to create an advertising campaign. Household name Fortune 500 companies spend a lot on advertising. The agency's hipster Creative Director (many times with a ridiculously inflated rep in the ad industry) puts together a concept to sell product--MAKING SURE TO HORSESHOE in politically progressive casting into it ( racially mixed couples is a very common one lately). Then, with great *highly visible* ad pitch fanfare, during a choreographed, glossy luncheon in the corporate boardroom-- they present this SO CHIC contemporary creative treatment to the clients in full view of division directors, company execs, corporate officers etc---whoever might be in the orbit of this new campaign to drive revenue and brand. ONCE THE AGENCY HAS PRESENTED THE WHITE DAD, BLACK MOM---BLACK DUDE, WHITE GIRLFRIEND--RACIALLY MIXED KIDS ETC--as the cast to depict the product scenarios they are launching.... ....NO ONE in these companies would ever dream of raising a questioning peep about the racial mix. Because they KNOW, if they do---someone at the agency will alert the leftist media that such and such well known brand does not want to show racially mixed families or couples. There goes their brand reputation and stock price. They are being systematically blackmailed. Trust me on this. I've been in the middle of it. I can totally believe this. The guy who points it out will get shit canned and the company will be "outed" over it. Like that other thing in Europe,you are not allowed to say it. Point taken. True. The product mgr gets a double bonus---feeling 'on the IN' with edgy cool Madison Ave 'think' and advancing within her stodgy corporate culture such a hip progressive, now sensibility--another embedded useful idiot puppet. But I still believe, even a rare PM with fearless, independent thought would think long and hard before touching this stuff with a 10 foot pole. As a pragmatist that looks at real life, I actually HAVE raised questions in internal agency meetings when casting got ridiculously out of balance with the buying demographic we were targeting. Like every ad was casting 50% blacks when the campaign was a product with a lifestyle profile that statistically was supported by 80% middle-America whites. |

Every producer is a consumer, they get us coming and going You are talking about human nature though. Capitalism is just a system or method of interaction. It is at root a voluntary method of trade rather than forced subjugation. Capitalism must have very strict ethical/moral/legal consequences for breaches in behavior. The best approach to root out bad human behavior is using ethical boards to revoke licenses and/or participation. The real problem with capitalism is that people are at root basically bad (weak and prone to be corrupted). So there must be very strict punishment for those who sway. Singapore is a very capitalist country with the highest per capita income and they literally whip someone's ass in public for wrongdoing. |

chrion777 User ID: 74274734 United States 09/29/2019 04:43 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm an ad guy. I make TV commercials in NYC. You're right, you're seeing a lot of this. There are two reasons for it: Quoting: First time poster 76943588 1) Mixed race couples are the fastest growing demographic group. Not just black and white, but also white/Asian, white/Hispanic. It's about $$$, and moving the merchandise. It's direct targeted appeal to them from advertiser. 2) It's also a defensive move on the part of the advertister against the twitter outrage mobs. If you did white/white or black/black (or all white) they'd come after you for tokenism, or racism. (Such is life today. Some preening idiot is always going to find something to get outraged about) So you eliminate one source of potential outrage by mixing things up. And, you save production/talent money: A black/white couple (one black actor, one white actor) saves you money in talent costs. You cover the bases with a mixed race couple, and keep your talent costs down, while avoiding the outrage crowd. No product manager wants the call from his/her boss about the Twitter mob. This is how you avoid it, and look virtuous doing it. But ultimately, it's all about $$$$$. how many Js where you work? are you one? white women and black males are never couples so your first premise is a lie Less than 25%. I'm not one. And what's driving it are brand managers at the product companies -- most of whom aren't J's either. They're looking at the #'s and insisting on the casting. So they are ok with pissing off the majority of their customer base to satisfy some new “growth market” of mixed couples? Yeah sure. And I guess porn is free because it makes the tribe wealthy as well Point of ads is to capture your attention. It's win-win for them because as others have noted it saves them money so they don't have to do Target as for each demographic, it captures the multiculturalist, those are actually in mixed-race relationships and also captures use the anti multiculturalist oh, because they just need to get your attention. Even if you're outraged you are paying attention to the ad. |
