Are we ready to admit that Woke & DEI and woke wasn’t what was holding you back from success?

You didn't seem to appreciate how important owning the libs was in all of this. How much the rest of the country wanted you to just shut up.

And even after all this you can't shut your mouth. Not a hint of self reflection. Not a whiff of humility in your loss. Well, I guess we'll have to do it again in 2028 until you're fellow travelers are the ones screaming at you to just shut the fook up.

It just feels so good to own the libs.

We’re not owned yet. Maybe if you close some more rural hospitals and teach your kids more fake history and shoot yourselves in the foot a few more times.

This is the social compact breaking down. We need urgency to restore it:

1 - Mass [twitter]deportations
2 - Stop the H-1B scam
3 - Dramatically reduce LEGAL Immigration
4 - End chain migration and the Visa Lottery
5 - Build 10 million homes for Americans
6 - Crush the College Cartel

Basically good with this. If 1-4 and 6 are done, number 5 isn’t necessary.

Stock market is doing awesome. Everything is great. No complaints.

In other words, you think black people are ugly, you’re happy inside your bubble, and you work for a fictional company where everyone is required to recite their pronouns at the start of each and every meeting. I’m fascinated, which company is this? And why are black people ugly?

The stock market’s performance has nothing to do with DEI.

I'm pretty sure he's mostly talking about fat people. But it's interesting you immediately thought he was talking about black people.

Lol! I wrote that bit about ugly people and just saw this thing where a liberal immediately interpreted that to mean "black people." Wtf! Man, that's really gross to think black = ugly. The left is crazy racist.

That’s because the comment was made within the context of a discussion of race and DEI (reminder: this is a thread about DEI, which does not include fat people or ugly people), so it came across as “so glad I no longer have to look at black people in ads”.

The right loves to say vague shit like this, then try to weasel their way out by claiming “oh no, that’s not what I meant”. God forbid you ever actually say what you mean.

NP. DEI absolutely includes fat people. Where have you been? Did you miss the entire size inclusivity movement?

I agree that the immediate jump to Black people was insanely racist.

Yes, it does. I see all plus size models and mannequins in the stores, at least where I shop.

^^ Of course, the "love your body" movement lost traction with weight loss drugs. Go to the Diet and Nutrition forum where everyone is trying to get their hands on it.

I love how people immediately shifted the racism from the person making the gross comment to the person who called out the gross comment. MAGA are masters of projection.

It would never have even occurred to me that people would equate black with ugly. We live in an age where Beyonce and Zendaya are A listers. It is just not a natural conclusion, even in the context of DEI.

DEI in ads was absolutely all about an androgynous aesthetic in which body hair was prominently featured and other items, like colostomy bags, were front and center. Look at Ella Emhoff's modeling work. Half the time she had visible, pus filled zits, usually had her eyebrows grown together like Frida, and wore her hair in an unfeminine way. This is all unnecessary. Normally people would do something about the giant zits before the photo shoot. But the woke agenda is to make us pretend this is the preferred, most attractive look. It's not.

It's not making fun of people with disabilities to say you dont want to look at colostomy bags while shopping for jeans. In normal life, I've never seen someone just letting it all hang out there. This "look at my armpit hair" "look at my poop bag" "it's all as beautiful as Sydney Sweeney" is just gas lighting and gross.

And maybe some of us don’t want to look at airbrushed, underweight models and be gaslit into thinking we’re inadequate because we don’t measure up to a fake ideal of Photoshopped perfection.

I don't understand why seeing beauty makes you feel inadequate.

DP. So turn the page And change the channel. Isn't that what conservatives were told only a few years ago? Companies and entertainment have realized that "get woke, go broke" is a real thing.

Because my original comment wasnt about race. It was about ugly people. If you think black people are ugly that's on you, and IS racist, because black people as a category are objectively not ugly. You'd have to be uncomfortable with and judgemental of black people to think that.

Also you don't get to say that black people are ugly and then claim that's what I really meant. Okay? All flavors welcome here.

And now you’re putting words in my mouth. I never, ever, not once, claimed that black people were ugly. I interpreted YOU as saying that, because my MAGA relatives have said on several occasions they find black people objectively less attractive than white people, and I was concerned that you might be expressing a similar sentiment. Since DEI includes black people and race was mainly what was being discussed at that point, saying “thank God I no longer have to look at ugly people (thanks to DEI)” implies that the category “ugly” includes black people. It’s a reasonable interpretation. That’s why I called it out.

All you had to do was say “no, that’s not what I meant” and explain what you actually meant. By trying to twist it around and accuse me of racism for questioning what I saw as racism, you’re doing the same thing. Questioning a thing isn’t the same as doing the thing.

Let’s agree that there are extremely attractive black people and they should be in ads.

Sorry, you don’t get to move the goalposts and retroactively insert your own qualifiers. PP only said elections. They have been proven wrong.

It sounds like you grew up around a lot of racist messages and you may want to examine what that's done to your view of black people. Nothing in my statement, or the context, would have pointed to black people. I could have meant trans, enbies, fat people- literally any category, and you went immediately to black, which isn't a logical progression at all. What I meant was ugly people. Ugly ones. I shouldn't need to further clarify because we all understand what's attractive and what's repulsive. But if I were a black person reading this, I'd be horrified that someone immediately equated black with ugly, and you should really think about that. In your quest to demonize maga, you said something UGLY.

Race is the single least important thing you can know about someone and yet it is the single most important thing to the liberals

I don't understand why seeing beauty makes you feel inadequate.

The purpose of ads is to sell products. It’s not an art museum. They’re not showing us these images for our aesthetic viewing pleasure. Advertisers feed on people’s insecurities to make money.

Personally, I get tired of the same old cookie cutter look being held up as the only beauty standard. I like seeing a variety of real, unretouched people using the products. I relate better to an ad that says “hey look, everyday people enjoy this” than something that says “this product is for glamorous, wealthy supermodels”. That doesn’t mean I don’t know or appreciate physical beauty, it just means I interact differently with ads and am less susceptible to being sold jeans by a pair of cheekbones.
