but now that she’s throwing stones in eugenicist glass houses

I'm sorry, she's doing what? And how?

I'm so confused by this whole thing. She's in a jeans ad - what's the big deal? (I'm not from the US so I might be missing some important context)

I'm not going to explain much. WW2 happened forever ago, if you refuse to understand the context of a white girl with blue eyes saying she has great genes, whose dad is a Trumper from racist Spokane, doing an ad for a CEO who is a Trumper and whose son is doing a real estate deal for Trump, who is a blatant white supremacist that had Hitler's speeches on his bedside table and leading the blatantly racist MAGA movement... With Trump and JD Vance both coming to defend her, more than JD ever did for the harassment his own wife faced... That's on you.

The ad could've had more than one actress and said, "We have great genes/jeans." It could have celebrated diversity. It didn't, because their CEO is a white supremacist who teamed up with a white supremacist to make a white supremacist ad.

That's a lot of completely unnecessary words, mate. Take a couple of breaths, calm down, not everybody who doesn't immediately pat you on the back is out to get you.

The version of the ad I saw did not have the "genes are passed down" bit.

You're doing a lot of defense for fascists here. Why?

[–] Alaknar@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) (1 children)

Quote the bit you consider as me defending fascists or apologise.

[–] LustyArgonianMana@lemmy.world 0 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Literally nearly every reply you've made itt. I won't quote your whole body of work, go look through your own account.

Yeah, that's what I thought. You're a god damn lunatic who basically goes "if you're not with us, you're against us". I said "some people overreacted by calling Sweeney a Nazi", and to you that means I'm defending fascists.

Fundamentalism of any kind is a cancer, mate.
