That was quite a deep-dive observation of the two commercials. I probably wouldn't have picked up on some of that on a conscious level, but the "programming" would still be ingrained into my subconscious with the point "they" wished to convey.
Sneaky bastards!
There are others. Mixed-race families are promoted for their agenda and whilst I have no problem
with mixed-raced marriages, having it shoved in my face implies a hidden racist guilt of the creators
of these commercials needs to be slyly aired.
The product that's for sale...? It doesn't matter.
Ginger hair is also a favourite, it's supposed to represent a minority on television and yet to the
normal people who watch the boob-tube, it's just a colour of hair.
The commodity...? who cares.
Those with disabilities are constantly painted with the marks of honesty and and kindness.
Nobody in history as ever done anything evil whilst steering a wheelchair.
They struggle with something and only with condescending virtuous assistance, is the weepy
music cued-up and everyone feels love for the person who will still have the disability tomorrow.
White men are usually always portrayed as unsure and need the confident hand of a female or
coloured person. The days of a strong male character have long gone and if needed, provide
an obtuse ignorant foil for those who're displayed as wise to purchase the product.
The question is why would -what was once a natural inbuilt trait of a male, be frowned at and
exhibited as a negative?
The dominant partner in a lesbian or homosexual relationship is not shown in the same manner
and the real-life duel-role of heterosexual couple is never broadcast these days in regards of
parental care.
So why demand the male rids himself of his combative, dominating attributes? Why force -via an
advertising company that is paid to promote a brand, a man to behave with a weak, confused
deportment?
You know why.
