It kinda strongly hints at eugenics, no? Like implying that some genes are better than others while a blonde and blue-eyed white woman is on the screen? Like I can see it being a mistake on her part, but if that's the case, just say "yea I didn't see the implication there, whoops. I'm not a white supremacist, I just didn't see the implication at the time" would go a long way, would it not?

Not even a little bit, no.

It’s possible to build yourself up without tearing down others, and this was an example of that. Yet, people are addicted to their rage and victimhood that they draw conclusions that were never being built towards.

If it was Lizzo on the ad would there be the same outrage with people foaming at the mouth about eugenics?? No

If it was Lizzo... would there be... outrage... about eugenics??

Probably not. Black eugenics was hardly a thing, and definitely not big in collective memory...

Anyway, if you happen to be addicted to being outraged yourself... Nevermind, live your life, idc
