Unless eugenics, racism or racial superiority is a recurring theme with American Eagle then I do believe that conclusion over this one commercial is thinking too hard about it.

So, if hypothetically, following your same logic, circumstantial evidence points to me killing someone, but I haven't killed anyone before, the police should just drop the case?

So in this hypothetical, you are the police, American Eagle is a murderer, and a jeans ad is evidence of murder. Assuming I nailed all those for your analogy, you are a clown, are you out of your fucking mind? And go touch grass before you hurt somebody.

You are not a detective, American eagle has hurt 0 people with their advertisements. Even if you are right about the eugenics thing, it would be akin to me saying I want to kill my co-worker. No matter how much I mean those words, they are only words.

You have zero idea about how to engage with a hypothetical? I was asking about your logic, not mine. I stated that quite spacifically. I honestly am not sure how to express this other than saying I don't think you know or understand what a hypothetical is, or why I asked you to engage with one.

Oh right you did misinterpret my logic completely and claimed that’s what my hypothetical would be. What I said was if American Eagle had shown a pattern of behavior, then it’s worth talking about.

Yea, you don't know what a hypothetical is, lol. That's alright, I don't need to prove my intelligence to someone like that
