The message in this commercial doesn't come across as "don't be a bad man." It comes across as "being a man is bad." Or more "all men are bad, all you ****ers need to change."

DJ's Left Nut, as usual, sums it up pretty eloquently.

I think that says a TON about you. I don't know anything about you personally, yet I know everything I need to know now. Poor little dude.

It says he's better at critical analysis than you are, chiefly.

I don't think feeding your blind rationalizations has anything to do with "critical analysis." Hit me up when that makes any lick of sense, mkay?

I write advertising for a living. I actually have to consider things like not pissing off a huge chunk of my client's customer base.

It's not "just" the tv commercials..It's the overlying problem of EVERYTHING in today's modern culture is all about being anti-white heterosexual male, and they're indoctrinating the next generations to believe this garbage.

TV shows, music, movies, sports etc...you can't turn on your TV or browse the interwebz without coming across this nonsense. Everyone is offended now by anything and everything, and it's all being programmed into us via media and most people don't even know it nor do they care. smh

I am impressed at your ability to completely and totally miss the true point of almost every conversation involving SJW topics.

The add is insulting on many many levels as it very simply driving a false male stereotype.

For example the guy suddenly deciding to break up the 2 boys fighting at the BBQ because he had some sort of epiphany, as if breaking up the fight isn't the norm and letting them just wail away on each other isn't the extreme outlier.

Every visual example used in the stupid video is the outlier and not the norm.

It seems like as entertainment runs out of novel ideas, they are also running into how their ideas of entertainment generated, or at least gave the impression of generating, the things they now bemoan.

A couple of instances that shed light.

First off, when they happened at the time I celebrated it, and then it was forgotten, and now people are revisiting it like they are discovering it for the first time.

And the 'it' I'm talking about is putting the tradtitional stories in more diverse hands.

The first was Eddie Murphy making movies about successful, often hyper-successful black people without self-congratulation or shining a light. Coming to America, Boomerang, Distinguished Gentleman, and even later family friendly fare like Nutty Professor and Doctor Doolittle, he presented black thriving as the default, black normalcy even nerdiness as normal.

Then Blade with Wesley Snipes as a superhero.

Then Kill Bill with a female as a lone avenging badass.

Now Hollywood 'repurposes' scripts with diversity as the prominent express and blatant intent, and look to celebrate how much progress they've made.

They think that unless they do it purposefully and loudly, the rubes won't get it.

Then second, the thing with misogyny and bigotry and curmudgeonliness being the center of sitcom fare. They like to think that they write these things because that's what the appetite is in the society. But it seems more to me that these traits are simply easier to write in their heuristic of conflict and resolution and story arcs. They never figured out how to generate entertaining fare from people being decent, and they blame the audience for not being receptive to their nonexistent effort to do so.

12,288,002 CP posts and counting...yet we seldom get to see the word "heuristic". Well done sir.

I didn't watch this because I don't care. And I shave with the cheapest generic blades I can find at CVS.

Tonka83 · 01-15-2019, 10:38 AM

I use Defender Razor. It's one of those reoccurring delivery programs but it's cheap and it's the only disposable blade that I have ever used that stays sharp for a week and the blades don't clog up. The blades are actually spaced far enough apart to let my thick ass stubble pass through.
