Does the high frequency of minorities in advertising signal racism is overblown?

Does the high frequency of minorities in advertising signal racism is overblown?

Just been thinking that probably about half of all ads I see during commercial breaks prominently feature black actors/s

Do you need to learn to read ? I just quoted this a few posts above

Right so we've established that:
A) You can't provide data showing the allegations against CRT to have no merit.
B) You therefore endorse racism.

bolded isnt true. why do you believe that?

anyway you didnt answer my question.

Bolded isn't true? indentured servants weren't brought to the USA?


by PointlessWords k

damn your racist af.

the ten commandments clearly show that slavery is immoral and against the rules of god. It is funny to see racists use the argument that it wasnt immoral. What a crock of ****. Everyone knew it was wrong, they just didnt care.

It wasn't immoral for the times no, otherwise it wouldn't have been common in most places, with only a very few banning it and only because it made economic reason for them to do so (like the city-states in northern italy and germany banning slavery in the 13-14th century, so that slaves fleeing from their owners could become workers in those cities. And the city could tax them. They didn't do it for moral reasons lol).

Supporting affirmative action is racism, no need for allegations, CRT explicitly supports affirmative action.

Moreover, John Scott, an English adventurer who travelled in the West Indies during the Commonwealth, saw Irish servants working in field gangs with slaves, ‘without stockings under the scorching sun’. The Irish, he wrote, were “derided by the negroes, and branded with the Epithet of ‘white slaves’”


"Does CRT teach american kids what indentured servants were, and that they were whites in the USA?"

there were also black indentured servants, which makes the statement untrue.


You really are stupid

you want to be disprove all allegations, thats close to impossible and I wont do it. I can try to disprove a few that you present however

indentured servants werent exclusively white which was the meaning that the sentence you wrote had.

you need to study logic. There are plenty of things that people do that are immoral that continue.

youre saying it was ok to ignore the morals of the bible that millions and millions of people follow

have you considered that youre wrong?


indentured servants= white

thats what the sentence says

if I find a single black indentured servant then the equals statement cannot stand

is that hard for corpus to understand?

"the vast majority of indentured servants in the USA were white and asians", better?

again, does CRT teach that to kids?

yes of course thats better although I dont think it is true.

does history teach that to kids? maybe if its true?

what definition of CRT are you using? Im using accurate history with the full story being told.

your is?


by PointlessWords k

yes of course thats better

does history teach that to kids? yes it does.

Mine is what the creators of that horrid marxist ideology told us

/
There are five major tenets of CRT as defined by Delgado and Stefancic in 2001:

Racism is deeply ingrained legally, culturally and psychologically in our society and intersects with sex, class, national origin and sexual orientation to create systems of privilege that serve to exclude and isolate.
“Color blindness,” the claim that people are capable of ignoring race or that race is no longer a factor within education and larger society, is an illusion that enables the perpetuation of those systems of privilege.
Counter-storytelling allows people to challenge claims of a “postracial” society, preserve their own sense of self and worth, and educate others by sharing their own stories of marginalization.
Our country’s civil rights victories enshrined equality in basic rights, but masked or in some cases even exacerbated the underlying social and institutional dynamics of racism.
Social, educational and economic value is associated with being white, which provides white students with certain rights and rewards while reinforcing exclusionary practices that affect students of color.

A blatant racist take of history (and present conditions), a monstrous ideology (like all marxist derived ideologies are)


I didnt think any of those things were wrong in anyway.

when did the racist legal and social culture of the US end?

we still had segregated schools in the 70s, what does that show you?


by PointlessWords k

damn your racist af.

that's not what he said, you should read it again and give it another go


by Luciom k

So in short does CRT contextualize american black slavery as what it objectively was, ie nothing specially immoral for the time, something that most places in north central and south america had, something that had happened throughout history to whites as well a lot, ie something that is not the unique evil some people want to describe to find unique justifications to current very bad outcomes of black DoS in the USA?

Or is the intent to depict black DoS as the victims of something akin to the na

I read it just fine


by PointlessWords k

I read it just fine

If a society considers something immoral, it makes it illegal.

The fact that your personal reading of the bible is such, that for you it considers slavery immoral, didn't prevent actual churches to use actual slaves and to defend the morality of slavery for centuries.

Most societies at that time didn't consider slavery immoral. That's an objective fact


by PointlessWords k

After the 60s there was no more legal anti-black racism.

Soon thereafter society started legally being racist against whites and Asians but I don't think that's what you have in mind


by PointlessWords k

If you can't disprove the allegations and still think they're a small price to pay, then...You endorse racism

indentured servants werent exclusively white which was the meaning that the sentence you wrote had.

Garbled nonsense. You stated it wasn't true that white people were indentured servants and you're wrong.

I'm starting to think that you have actual mental health issues, so I'm going to bow out.


I didn’t state that lol. Learn to read. One person made an exclusive statement and I showed how it was incorrect.

Wrong


by PointlessWords k

Wrong

in illiberal societies, that's true, and liberal societies didn't exist until very recently


No that’s not even close to true. The people in power choose laws that keep them in power , that’s the most often case throughout history

People act in their own selfish interests, true morality is rare

and a behavior that is accepted and diffused among powerful people is *literally not a behavior considered immoral by that society* lol, exactly because it's powerful people who decide what's proper and what's not, not the bible lol.

you are speaking of ontological morality, I am talking about what a society considers acceptable, can you even read?

moral AT THE TIME means exactly and only that: those societies were ok with it


And you gather that most of society was ok with because of Gallup polls released? Or you just make up your opinion that goes against the Bible and Hammurabi’s code of laws

The Ten Commandments don't mention slavery or even allude to it. But slavery, including the sexual slavery of women captured in warfare, seems to have been considered normal by Jewish authorities in the BC period and is commended and enforced at various points in the Old Testament.
