Quit with your over exaggerations. I am not a phony or any of the other names you throw at people for expressing their opinions. I admit if commercials only have one race, regardless if the race, people would be upset since it would only seem to represent that race. Since commercials show people if all races, it isn’t an issue. Do you think each commercial should show people of every race? You are one of the whiners who look for racist issues where none exist.But you admit that it would matter if they were all white - so it matters. But you don't understand why or when it matters; you're a phony, woke, liberal.No I don't. It doesn't matter because all the commercials aren't one race.
So you retract your statement that the race of actors in a TV commercial doesn't matter, right?
Race matters anytime decisions are made for reasons other than selling the product. When race is chosen to protect the company or when race is chosen specifically to matter then it matters. When the message is race, then the race matters.
Do the ad agencies pick the top two auditions and make them a couple, regardless of race or sex? When we see two men kissing in a commercial, were they simply the top two candidates as in a California election? When we see a mixed race couple, were they simply the top two candidates? No; they were chosen for a message and the message isn't about the product.
If I'm doing a commercial for Black Radiance makeup products, then choosing a black couple is about the product. If I choose a black couple for a race-agnostic product then I might be targeting that soothing feeling mentioned about black faces for black people - once again, a reasonable choice. But when the message of the race is "look at us; we're not racist and we dare you to make a comment" then, of course, they actually are racist.
