International I had a look at couples portrayed in adverts.

The only financial reason they could have for the woke advertising is to get a higher social credit score to get that juicy blackrock and soros money. There's no way putting all these forced interracial couples in there makes people think "oh damn I recognize myself so much in these now I'm gonna buy the product".

Embrace the raccoon in you!

This thread is now officially a raccoon thread.

 

[MicroBrew]

Are you talking about the old man who feeds a giant pack?

Yeah.

All I could think of how the raccoons were gona die of heart disease.

They're pretty fascinating.

Years ago my sister moved across the street from a wooded area. She had a pack of feral cats show up. She put down traps to catch them, so they could be spayed and neutered. One night, she accidentally caught a racoon. Poor guy freaked out so much, he mortally injured himself trying to escape.

His lady friend was furious. I had spent all that day at my sister's house, helping her plant flowers, laying down mulch, etc. That night the female raccoon, for revenge, ran into the backyard screaming, tore up all the flowers I just planted, then moved on to the lawn, ripping it apart. Ruined everything I did, and then some. lol.

In Oz mixed race couple in ads are more common than not now, been that way for probably a couple of years. Personally mixed race couples are great, however it was very noticeable how this was ramped up in the tv ads all of a sudden.

Sumo, I see what you meen, those tesco people look british as fuck. They both even nailed the accent.

If I saw them on the street, I wouldn't turn my head. it's just Barry hugging his bird, innit.

What's interesting is the one place you'll always see a smiling white family is on the ads for new luxury condos. All of a sudden people don't want diversity then. Even the most liberal people around.

 

[ColemanwastheGOAT]

All the couples ads I see on Facebook are mixed race now but I will say they are diversifying it and mixing in some black woman with white men every now then instead of just black men with white woman.

And black dudes are not happy about it lol

Why is everyone so posh and generic? You people don't all speak like that. Where are the chavs and the geordies?

Half those guys sound like they expect me to shine their shoes.

Thanks for the updates. Any word on M&S?

Interracial couples may seem common but the latest figures show they account for only 7% of relationships in England and Wales.

I like what you’ve done here
Any chance you can do a similar breakdown with SCOTUS
I forgot how to do %’s on a calculator

I thought I had learned English at school until I watched Geordie Shore on MTV. Oh boy, was I wrong.

I went through this experience when I discovered the Jeremy Kyle show.

If you're a white guy looking for acting work in commercials, there's still 1 job you can always get with no diversity even allowed.

 

[tastaylvr]

What is your point? Why do you make a post about mixed couples in adverts without giving your opinion about it?

 

[Hellowhosthat]

Thanks for the updates. Any word on M&S?

They just do extreme closeups of food that makes me hungry

 

[Blunderbuss]

They love snow.


Many people have them as pets now.

We sometimes watch this old man youtuber feeding a bunch of raccoons hot dogs. They are fat as fuck. It is delightful!
