    This post is attracting a lot of trolls. You guys are handling it great, so I’m not going to lock it. Reminder to not take any of the downvotes or "calm down"s seriously.

    So long have white people yearned for representation in media. Never getting to see people that look like them on the television. Justice finally being done for white people.

              I find it mildly amusing to imagine that it says “Hot Girls, Fat Arby’s”, which is a subversion of the expectation, and also elicits the image of a big fat Arby’s mascot

          It’s the highest degree of freemasonry, and also believed to be the age Jesus was when he died. It’s a major theme in a lot of conspiracy theories that the powers that be tend to sneak the number into things they control, either as gang like tagging or because they believe it gives them power.

            The only numbers I’ve seen snuck into things are 42 and 47.

            Edit: The 47 thing is actually old and goes back to an in-joke among the Star Trek TNG writing staff. Not that other thing.

          Nothing that I know of. Any ither use of 33 is unrelated. Could’ve been orange, or bench. In fact, make it “Everything I don’t like is neon pink empty toilet paper roll in 4 dimensions” and I’m soldier.

      Yeah, I could have picked three random ads with white people a couple years ago too… It’d be different if they had, like, numbers showing more ads were using just white people or something than before.

      Either racism/Nazism or network effect. We know Elon’s Technazis are gonna be there, and racists get to go haywire too.

      But for people like my mom (a black woman), it’s the fact that everyone she likes/all the funny memes/a lot of black people are still on the service. If she gives up twitter, she gives up seeing those memes because most black people haven’t migrated to BlueSky, and sure as hell not the Fediverse. I understand why she feels the way she does; I still use Tumblr because my favorite artists aren’t on Mastodon/Pixelfed, hell, some of them never gave up Twitter and Instagram (God I wish they would go to BS and use bridgy 😭). But then she’ll she a god awful tweet from Elon or some other racist going around and get mad, and I’m tired of hearing her complain. And then I always tell her, “why are you surprised, you’re on Twitter. Just leave,” but then I get the network effect issue.

        I actually wonder how this affected Arby’s because every Simpsons fan I know quotes this.

        And the one time I went to Arby’s, it was real disgusting.

      Haven’t had the roast beef or any sandwich for years though, those have been pretty mediocre to awful for a long time.

      Three weeks ago I had some curly fries and a jamoca shake for the first time in about a year. They were still pretty darn good!

        I used to love the jamocha shakes, until I saw the calorie count.

      I don’t think it exists where I live anymore. There used to be one in a mall when I was in high school ~20 years ago. I think I bought curly fries from them once.

      Their French dip sub is glorious. I stopped going since the pandemic inflation until the deals through their mobile app made their prices competitive again.

      They have the best fish sandwich of all fast food restaurants. And other “unique” foods: Greek gyro pita, corned beef ruben. Hell, even their cold turkey sandwich is good. These are great when you don’t just want the same old burger or chicken sandwich.

    Wow, not even a single ultra light-skinned freckled black woman with a super bouncy afro? That is anti-woke! America is back, baby! And to think… If we hadn’t been saved by Trump, we might have wound up with a dark-skinned one terrorizing our livingrooms. 😰

      It’s a lack of purity-testing. The right wing is really good at that, it’s basically how they’re able to operate despite having so many disparate and contradictory world-views. I think the left should get better at it.

    Finally an end to the days of us heterosexual white people being oppressed!

    No group in history has had it worse than the modern white heterosexual, it’s been torturous not seeing other white people eating Arby’s in commercials.

      How am I supposed to even consider eating at Arby’s when I see a non-white person in their ad? Like, I’m white and the person in the ad is not, like… what? Anyway, thank god that nightmare is finally over.

    Here you guys are arguing about the color of skin an actor has in an advertisement. When you should be arguing for the banning of all advertising. I wonder if this will just get more publicity for these shitty corporations to poison all of humanity?

      advertisements are brainwashing. think about it: if a company spends $1K on advertisement, it expects to make at least as much through increased sales. That’s the money they steal from you.

        Either ads don’t work on me and so it’s good for the advertisement companies when I block them and don’t waste bandwidth, or they do work on me and in that case it’s fucking brainwashing and can fuck right off.

        Adblocking is always moral.

        $1K on advertisement

        Add a lot of zeros to that.

        Most companies spend a lot more on advertisement than developing their product.

          it was an example, not meant to be the final number, but yeah, excessive advertisement wastes resources and is a blight on society.

        I always roll my eyes whenever I see a literal commercial taking up all the space in the headlines due to some fake controversy. Not only does that give the corporation that made it everything they want times a thousand (thus counter-effective for all the people allegedly angry over it), its also 9 times out of 10 used to distract from something that actually matters.
