Joyful, smart and sassy Kamala is teaching him how to eat. Guess that’s a step up from changing Joes diaper for four years.

I just watched a fundraising ad for Harris/Walz on YouTube in which she pronounces his name as Waltz. I found it peculiar that this was allowed to air without correction.

Likely no one cares. I saw people spelling it “Waltz” in comments in the first few days.

He's the Mozart of pizza-makers.

Well, certainly in this commercial, they chose exactly what they were after in a stupid white man. No more Joe and the Ho. Now we have two comrades, the Stalinist and the Maoist. Walz signed the bill that allows illegals to vote in Minnesota. And the broads of the squad cheered him on,.

I've been talking about this trend for years, glad to see it's not only me who notices

I noticed during the OJ trial how much love black women have for the white women pairing up with successful black men.

They did need someone to look/act more stupid than Kamala.

Exactly!

As if any of this is every going to help them run the institutions they now control. It isn't, of course. And that's why they do it. A more tenuous hold on power would be hard to imagine.

I noticed in the late 80’s in Seattle. A relative, white, was dating a black guy. No big deal in the white community but the black girls made walking to class a scary prospect. Black athletes dating white girls was all the rage. Not changed.

Yeah. I noticed it, too. I remember in high school (Garfield) black girls would beat the living sh*t out of any white girl who fooled around with their man.

I have been on TV strike for 50 years so I am largely immune to TV advertising but I have worked with African Americans a lot and worked for a few as well. I don't flatter myself that I know them better than most whites but the things I see are not what is portrayed. Steve says that 70% of bi-racial couples are Black men with white women and I believe that even if my own experience shows an even larger share of bi-racial couples being black men/white women. This seems to me to be a holdover from Jim Crow societies where a black man gains status with a white woman partner while a black woman loses status with a white man partner. I knew quite a few single black women that I was on pretty good terms with but none of them wanted to date me. I didn't like it but I hadn't a clue how to change that. The racial competition that the left is promoting has only made that worse.

i cast my mind back to Sanford & son, which could not be made today. Redd Foxx's inuendo rich jokes went over my childish head, but DAMN 'twas rich.

One of the stupidest things I’ve ever seen.

What a totally cringe ad. Just awful.

I do notice that she’s got giggling a bit more under control.

Speaking of acting.

Blacks think White people don't spice our food because they only get served food by whites in public schools and prisons.

As evidenced by a rather notorious Instagram comment section, many blacks also don’t understand that garlic and onions come in forms other than powders.

I hate the idea that blacks are more adventurous when it comes to food. Most black adult males eat like a 12 year old and will generally refuse to try anything new.

Jesus Christ, we really are in trouble...

"TV commercials largely are oriented to flatter women"

There's surgery to fix that now.

In the 80s, I worked for a small and young Beltway Bandit that in six years had an unusually high percentage of employees that were part of married black/white couples--maybe a third of the married employees (there were also a lot of young singles). Some were ex-military, and only one was white man/black woman. I couldn't figure out how it happened. Did they have a secret handshake?

I was just at the Sturgis rally and I can confidently state that the ratio of black men on Harleys to black men in Harley ads is effectively zero.

Expand full comment

Another data point from Sturgis: I saw thousands of bikers and motorcycles. Probably saw hundreds of different t-shirts for sale.

There were essentially zero Confederate flags on display. I saw three small 2x3 inch patches on vests, but that’s it. Not one shirt for sale with the rebel flag. That was astonishing to me.

So bikers are no longer rebels, or do they just not want trouble from certain quarters?

Expand full comment

Huge numbers of Trump shirts and signs; that might be what passes for rebellion these days. It seems that the Confederate battle flag has attained parity with the swastika.

They should resurrect the Stars and Bars--few fussbudgets will recognize it for a few years.

I realized yesterday that Georgia did that with their new state flag. Did no one notice?

"Confederate Motors" was actually a motorcycle company until (like the Dixie Chicks) it surrendered its name on the Altar of George Floyd.

Here's a review from a Russian (!) motorcycle magazine (Премиальный Кастом):

Are cantaloupes white food?

In the 80s, my mother was still using a rectangular can of black pepper that looked like it was from the 50s, but she did buy those little packets of taco seasonings.

Cantaloupe (while often mistaken for a fruit) is in fact another vegan meat substitute, replacing antelope.

If a space invader sat down to watch some TV ads in the UK, here's what they would discover:

1) British humans are 75% black

2) female humans mostly like kissing each other

3) white male humans get on everyone's nerves

4) all humans spend 90% of their time doing silly dancing.

Imagine what it must be like to be inside the head of an advertising 'creative'....Uugh!
