You dig deep for any supposed example of "wokeness" that you can find. Do you scrounge the internet for this stuff? WOW!!!

Meanwhile, 99% of us (including liberals) probably never even read or paid attention to that article or claim from MSNBC; whatever or whenever it was.

It popped up on my feed soooooooooooo.   Care to elaborate on why wokesters have to play the race card on a blue jeans ad?  

No; I don't care about that. It didn't pop up on my feed and never would because I don't typically pay attention to petty crap like that. Advertisers can generally do whatever they want as far as I'm concerned and the vast majority of liberals don't care about this either.

It’s obviously not petty to the wokesters

Somebody obviously cares about it but I can go to right-wing websites and find much, much more ridiculous stuff than that.

Why does the ad hark back to Nazi times?   I think that is where the issue is.   I heard it on the weird radio!!

Yes; right-wing radio is probably all over this. The ironic thing is that 95% of the wingers pay attention to this while most liberals haven't heard or care about it. 

It's sort of like the narrative that the liberals want to take away everybody's guns. About 1% of liberals actually want that while 99% of the wingers think it's extremely close to happening. 

The wingers truly live in an alternative reality.

Except this is what the left is saying.   Not being made up.

Published on 29/07/2025 - 16:36 GMT+2

American fashion retailer American Eagle and Hollywood actress Sydney Sweeney have been the subject of fierce criticism for a jeans advert which was aimed at raising awareness about domestic abuse. Instead, the campaign has sparked backlash over racial undertones. Here’s everything you need to know.

A new ad campaign featuring Euphoria and White Lotus star Sydney Sweeney has sparked fierce backlash over racial undertones, leading some to label it as “tone-deaf” and even “Nazi”.

So it is right there.   The right is not  making this up.  It is what the wokesters are saying.

I've seen none of this in the news sources that I pay attention to. The wingers are the only people I see bringing this up. I don't go to fringe news sources like most of the wingers here.

Oh, so it is just the wingers bringing up what the L winger nut jobs are saying.   And that is the "wingers" fault?

Give me a break.   I'm glad you don't see this.   I just heard it in passing on the radio.   Stupid  stuff.

I don't listen to Sean Hannity.  He is irritating.   Regurgitates the same lines every time I see him or hear him.   Nope not Hannity.   This is just such a stupid thing to defend RV.   It is not the right's fault that they point out when the  left acts like idiots.

So which right-wing talk radio show was it?

Another example of both sides doing the same **I poop my pants, don't laugh at me**  but only get so incredibly offended when the other side does it.  If you don’t like the ad, don’t buy the jeans.  Or, buy the jeans because you don’t wear the ad. 
 

It’s pretty simple really.

But why label it racist or nazi etc?   That is just plain unhinged.   I don't buy many jeans so the ad doesn't concern me.   What is concerning is this unhinged reaction to it.   Now if they were saying Syndey Sweeney is awesome looking etc etc, or is ugly why did they pick her as a model, that is more understandable.   Or if you just don't like that brand for whatever reason.    But to call the ad with its play on words racist or nazi is just plain unhinged.

Some woke hipsters defo hate it 

Indeed, critics have accused the ad of peddling “Nazi” propaganda, pointing out that the play on words with “great genes” has racist connotations and veers towards white supremacist ideals. Many have also highlighted that considering Sweeney is blue-eyed and blonde-haired, it echoes eugenic messaging.

I heard it on Markley, Van Camp, and Robbins.   It's a pretty funny show really.   They brought this up and skewered it.
