They are definitely pushing an agenda
I know this is crazy talk
This obsession with surface looks has turned us into a shallow society of ignoramus's.
They are definitely pushing an agenda.
"Starbucks cups don't say Merry Christmas. I'm offended!!!!"

I agree. And it's increasingly the McGees and Patricks and Oakmans of the world playing identity politics, turning into Special Snowflakes, and getting offended at nothing.

I actually think Patrick's comment was spot on.
So you self selected into the "white anger" group. Cool. Good for you.
But just because some elites have an agenda doesn't mean they're going to get it.

One way to look at that chart is white genes spreading to all other groups.

The Top "Interracial Marriages" in the US are between White Males and either Asians or Hispanic Women.
Yet commercials show Blacks with Hispanics, Asians, and rarely Whites.
Biological realism in the context of race and sexuality asserts that human mating preferences, including tendencies toward racial endogamy, arise from innate biological mechanisms shaped by evolution, such as genetic compatibility and phenotypic similarity to maximize reproductive fitness.[13] Proponents cite evidence from assortative mating patterns, where individuals consistently pair with partners of similar racial backgrounds at rates exceeding random expectation, even in multicultural environments with ample opportunity for mixing; for instance, in the United States, over 90% of marriages remain within racial groups despite legal interracial marriage since 1967.[13] Twin studies further support a genetic basis, demonstrating that monozygotic twins exhibit greater similarity in spouse selection—particularly for traits like ethnicity and personality—than dizygotic twins, indicating heritability estimates around 30-50% for preferences toward genetically similar mates.[14] These findings align with evolutionary models positing that cues of genetic relatedness, including racial markers like skin tone and facial structure, trigger subconscious attraction to reduce outbreeding depression and enhance offspring viability.[15]
In contrast, social constructivism maintains that racial categories and associated sexual preferences lack inherent biological foundations, instead emerging from cultural norms, historical power dynamics, and socialization processes that impose artificial boundaries on desire.[16] Advocates argue that observed racial preferences reflect learned biases, such as media portrayals or familial conditioning, rather than fixed traits, and point to variability in interracial unions across societies as evidence of malleability; for example, rates of interracial marriage in the U.S. rose from 3% in 1967 to 17% by 2015, attributed to declining social taboos.[17] However, this view often overlooks persistent cross-cultural patterns of endogamy and the failure of prolonged exposure in diverse settings to erode preferences substantially, suggesting environmental explanations alone insufficiently account for the data.[13]
Critiques of social constructivism highlight its rhetorical deployment to counter biological accounts, potentially downplaying empirical regularities in favor of ideological commitments, as seen in academic fields where constructivist interpretations dominate despite contradictory genetic evidence.[16] Heritability research on mate traits, including physical attractiveness and resource cues correlated with racial averages, yields broad-sense estimates of 20-40%, implying a substantial innate component resistant to purely cultural erasure.[18] While constructivists emphasize the social fluidity of race, biological realists counter that human genetic clusters—corresponding roughly to continental ancestries—provide a substrate for evolved preferences, with admixture studies showing hybrid offspring face subtle fitness costs in immune function and morphology, incentivizing ancestral matching.[9] Reconciliation attempts, positing races as both biologically clustered and socially elaborated, falter when applied to sexuality, where twin and adoption data prioritize genetic over shared environmental influences on partner similarity.[19] Ultimately, the preponderance of longitudinal and cross-species evidence favors biological realism as causally primary, with social factors modulating rather than originating preferences.[20]

Has anyone else noticed all these ads pushing interracial couples? My parents were an interracial couple and my wife and I are as well. But I loathe the idea that some idiot asshat is siting in the office in a meeting going "let's pair an asian guy with a white girl this time".
