dogwhistling aside, this is just a terrible ad. I mean all ads are terrible, but the whole genes/jeans thing is so hacky and lame, and it's a blatant rip off of a Calvin Klein ad from like 40 years ago (which is problematic for a different reason)

edit: also Sydney Sweeney is bizarrely devoid of charisma

[–] Des@hexbear.net 34 points 1 month ago (2 children)

she just seems eepy and kind of high

I don't know whats so special about this white chick that looks sleepy all the time

Because dead eyes are really appealing to conservative men

Damn, didn’t know Nic Cage was a baddie.

Watch Moonstruck, Nic Cage is a baddie

Crop a picture enough and you can get anyone on their knees

[–] TraschcanOfIdeology@hexbear.net 40 points 1 month ago

Large breasts and she played a sexually active teenager on TV. So all very normal reasons, of course.

[–] ZeroHora@lemmy.ml 15 points 1 month ago

I don't know either

Fuck I am so tired of sydney sweetie.

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 39 points 1 month ago (1 children)

But she's a s-e-x s-y-m-b-o-l and her titties own the left, don't you see?! boohoo

You can even grow your own trans-egg

[–] rootsbreadandmakka@hexbear.net 22 points 1 month ago

Sorry, you’re wrong. Everyone knows the woke mob canceled large bazongas in 2016. Sydney Sweeney is the only person brave enough to fight the woke mob using their greatest weakness: large breasts.

I'm sorry, I can only speak for my own personal boob-filled existence

[–] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 26 points 1 month ago (1 children)

About half the population has tits

[–] CeliacMcCarthy@hexbear.net 32 points 1 month ago

significantly more than half

[–] CleverOleg@hexbear.net 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Me too but if folks here and on lefty Reddit stopped talking about her I probably wouldn’t actually hear about her. Maybe I’m not as plugged into hog culture as I used to be but it’s only the left that seems to be bringing her up.

[–] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 7 points 1 month ago

i don't think i've seen anything she's in and only know of her because of the posting

[–] VaqueroRed@lemmygrad.ml 48 points 1 month ago (4 children)

I don’t care for eugenics.

Then you're really going to hate Tommy Hilfiger's new Eu-jean-ics campaign

This whole fucking thing has reeked of manufactured outrage since the beginning. This ad firm is probably making millions of dollars in bonuses from milking in on both ends.

[–] Confidant6198@lemmy.ml 27 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Seems like the right wing in America loves purchasing pro-eugenics brands

[–] SchillMenaker@hexbear.net 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

America

Yeah, but we already knew that

[–] Confidant6198@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Reminders are not a bad thing though. And also, not everyone knows.

[–] SchillMenaker@hexbear.net 3 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Absolutely not a bad thing. My issue is with giving oxygen to this obvious attempt at stoking culture war. Some shitty ad for some shitty clothing brand will never be as harmful as the army of psychos that Peter Thiel has running around and this kind of thing is literally meant to distract from the harm that they're doing.

[–] Confidant6198@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 weeks ago

I think you are understimating humans ability to care about more than one thing at the same time. Also the issue with this ad is that besides the fact that is trying to normalize eugenics, it also set a new precedent for ads to start talking about genes like the Dunkin Donuts one. It was also defended by the white house itself which is trying to normalize eugenics itself.

I don't think that caring about the normalization of eugenics and calling out boycotts on companies and actors/models is a bad thing after the eugenics history of the USA in which all groups have been seen as subhuman except for whites.
