Wasn't that above quote directed at me?
Futuregohan30, how many times do you see commercials where two white guys are getting the best of a brother and white people are laughing about it in the background.
Well, there was a white guy in this particular commercial we are speaking of laughing in the background.
The other guy(Dion) was black.

Thats a big time double standard. Yeah, I am ticked off at commercials, because almost every one has the white male as either a slob, idiot, or as queer as a 3 dollar bill. The media is out to further emasculate the white male and make him feel like he's the scum of the earth and nothing compared to black males. Its just part of a larger plan by the liberals in our society to subvert and overturn our culture for one that is spineless and swimming in multiculturalism. I see sports as just one aspect of this. It is happening in the movies, on TV, and in politics, and is only getting worse. I want white men to think they are the baddest mothers on the planet, because we are. I don't want my kids, whenever I have some, growing up thinking they are weak and less of a man than a male from another race.
Well, let me be clear: it is not that I do not believe that the media influences the common people's perception of other groups of people.
I do believe the media has that power, and is excercising it.
There are a copuple differences in how I se this though.
First, I do not believe that this media/social system is only geared to negatively affect whites. It does affect them negatively, but it's not just specifically for them...but for others as well.
Secondly, I don't believe every instance that you've outlined so far has been necessarily a case of racism. For example, i see many, many commercials a day. I'm 15, I watch TV a lot, thats what we do.
But as it is, I don't see that every commercial is somehow against whites in some way.
In fact, in most cases, the main characters in commmercials are white american males and they influence the plot of the ad more than the others.
I won't deny that there are commercials like the Madden 07 one which you may interpret as anti white.
However, I do not believe this to be a particularly common thing. Looking at the ads I see on TV all the time, I just have not seen this trend at all. It really doesn't seem to be that widespread.
Perhaps I have been missing something, which is why it might be easier if you could inform me of some examples of this anti white commercials.
However, I have to ask: in light of one of your main sentences there
"I want white men to think they are the baddest mothers on the planet, because we are."
Are you implying that a commercial can really only be considered pro white if whites are portrayed positively?
It seems as though that (correct me if I'm wrong, but it appears this way) you are labelling some ads as anti white mostly because you may have seen some black guy in the ad who acted well, or some asian, or something like that.
Or maybe it';s because the white guy in the commercial plays the unaware consumer, and some other person comes in to educate him.
Are you saying that a commercial can only be pro white if it portrays whites in a light that is purely positive? Is it anti white just to show a white guy in a light that is not superior or on top in any way?
Again, I am just inquiring.

I am not saying that every such instance is part of the plan, but I do think it is pervasive. I mean, the media has a big part in the caste system. Can't you see the parallel here?
The media does play a part in all these things, but I do not believe it all to be quite that simple in reality.
