All I’m gonna say about the jeans commercial is too many people are focusing on Sydney Sweeney’s role in this and not enough on American Eagle for greenlighting the commercial in the first place
this part. they saw that she was already dealing with controversy, and STILL hired her. that makes me think they just wanted people to talk about their brand, good or bad. so weird.

AE’s CEO is very openly pro-Israel and donated lots of money to trump’s campaign in 2024 so this tracks

In the long run bad publicity is better than no publicity and frankly this is the first AE Ad I’ve seen in like a year so it’s even made it’s way into more offline / not main media content

My fav pants are literally from target or tjs please just get the “cheap” clothes atp they are the same (if you have a good tjs supplier. Not all tjs are made the same and I hate that.)

that’s what i’m saying tho, even target is problematic now, tj maxx treats their workers like shit (former employee), like there’s no affordable ethical brands, even goodwill takes advantage of disabled employees

No, they’re saying that you’re bringing in an entirely different topic than what my post is about
