Is English not your first language? The phrase “she has great jeans” is a double entendre for “good genes”, which feels like a white supremacy dog whistle. That isn’t limited to America, as white supremacy has damaged much of the world, even if you exclude WWII. Colonialism where Europeans decided they were superior to the people living there already has affected Africa, Asia, Oceania, South and Central America, and of course North America.
Yes, if it said that personality came from genes, then said that said black girl had “great jeans.'”
Do you think black supremacy doesn’t exist? Black Israelism and 5% Nation are both explicitly black supremacists imo, and I in no way consider them to be doing my skin color favors. I will criticize them the same way I criticize British Israelism. As well as other dog whistles or other colorism.
I’m also highly critical of black people who hate on lighter colored black people, and have family who has suffered from it.
Did you think that was a gotcha? That people critical of racism aren’t critical of racists of similar color to them?
Sure, the wording was horrible, but dudes online are basically saying the actress is a Nazi. That’s on the same level as people harassing actors for a bad film script to me.
“People are overreacting” was a common response to the rise of Trump, the increase in first amendment violations by religion, police brutality, and yes, even the Nazis. We need to react to the shift that are happening to make sure they stop. If they seem like an overreaction to you, it’s because you aren’t the one in danger,and you don’t care about those of us who are. You even admitted you weren’t in the US, and said you were confused.
I explained the context, and now you, someone who doesn’t have experience of growing up in American racism, are judging the reaction?
I already said it in your other comment - you’re a fundamentalist. The only thing that differentiates you from a Taliban lunatic is that you go super-hard left where they go right.
People are calling an actress a Nazi for being in an add that has a shitty message. It’s insanity.

Because there’s a white person on the screen?
Out of curiosity: would you consider the ad a “black supremacy dog whistle” if the ad had a black girl instead?
Yes, if it said that personality came from genes, then said that said black girl had “great jeans.'”

I think people might be overreacting a bit.

“People are overreacting” is just gaslighting. I don’t think this person has good intentions.
“This person”? Who? Whoever wrote the script for the ad? Or the actress, who has no say over the script?
You. You are gaslighting us when you claim it’s “overreacting.”
