or tbf they might’ve not thought the immediate jump for using a common phrase of genes/jeans for a popular modern actress who’s looks are constantly talked abt would be seen as straight up white supremacy, eugenics, and nazism. im sure they considered the thought of there being controversy based on like societal beauty standards maybe, which may include her whiteness sure, but not straight up like these sinister beliefs and systems idk haha.
I feel like you haven’t seen the worst ad, where she talks abt how genes are passed down from parents to offspring and then references her blue eyes Also, if they hadn’t intended it to be pro-eugenics, they would’ve redacted the campaign as soon as there was public outcry and issued an apology. They’d probably have donated to some charity too. The fact that they’re standing by it shows that it’s intentional
But… some people have blue eyes… given to them by their parents….. and blue eyes are considered pretty, ig …. and blue eyes are not only a trait unique to yt ppl… I’m just confused, idk maybe I’m part of the population all those committees knew wouldn’t see what y’all are seeing. Was there any part that was specifically bigoted? (Genuinely asking bc I haven’t cared to look into it that far tbh)
In an alternate universe that hadn’t had the holocaust nor our current administration, there’d be nothing wrong w it. It’d still be fuckin weird bcos who gives a fuck abt her eyes this is supposed to be able denim 😭 BUT the focus being on the blue eyes of a blue-eyed, blonde white girl is referencing the most universally known naziism and it’s happening during a time when the country is being ran by proud eugenicists. So, in this life that we’re presently living, it’s a problem
