Women and minorities are not a monolith!

https://blackmeninamerica.com/updat...-their-money-3/

quote:
“Our research shows that Black consumer choices have a ‘cool factor’ that has created a halo effect, influencing not just consumers of color but the mainstream as well,” said Cheryl Grace, Senior Vice President of U.S. Strategic Community Alliances and Consumer Engagement, Nielsen. “These figures show that investment by multinational conglomerates in R&D to develop products and marketing that appeal to diverse consumers is, indeed, paying off handsomely.”

Generally speaking, Black people are still living for the moment with a “to hell with the future” mindset when it comes to money. Too many Black folks tend to only worry about themselves and the money that they have NOW. That way of thinking is crippling and must STOP now!

A common scenario for many Black folks when they get a “huge” chunk of money or their tax refund deposit is to run to the nearest appliance store, high-end mall or car dealer–(we just love those shiny new rims). According to The State of Working America, Black people spend 4 percent more money annually than any other race despite the fact that they are the least represented race and the race that lives in poverty at the highest rate.



Market research is the elephant in the room to every single "You can not define us" argument. laughing

My point is demographic research is literally profiling people by race, sex, gender, and age.


The verry thing social activist get angry about in casual contexts.

Yet nobody seems to have noticed this fact, or care. I mean, they are literally saying "Those people act like.."

Yes, that's what demographics do, last I checked. Break people up in to distinguishable groups.

So your post is what, a condemnation of demographics as a whole? Or just people who use them to justify bad things?

Neither. He's pretending to be upset about "social activists" not being upset about it which must automatically make them hypocrites who don't care about the actual racism that he's trying hard to direct away from.

More of an observation at this point.

But, well, think about it. Say that women like babies, and you'll get your head lopped off.


Yet market studies could get away with saying "70 percent of women like babies."



Ok, so shouldn't feminists be shutting down market studies that say "women like babies"? Why don't they?


Why is it wrong for a police office to profile a hit and run driver as "Muslim" when the driver was a Muslim (Activists did demonstrate against this) yet it's perfectly fine to profile people into groups for market reasons?


My thought on the subject are, let's say, "evolving" as I only just noticed this trend, but at the least it suggest a big blind spot in how social politics and business operates. They are not held to the same standards, at all.

Not sure if he's an actual racist. He is a tryhard though.

I also suspect he can actually see the difference between a company doing market research to sell products and police pulling over a guy driving just because he's a Black. Even though he's doing his best to conflate the two.

The difference in harm? Certainly?


Can you see the difference in harm of Nazi's literally killing Jews, and someone denying the Holocaust happened?


Yet you'd be angry, right?


You'd also be offended if someone pointed out Jews control the media, in spite of actual data that they are over represented as a group in media companies.

Yet market research, which is literally designed to profile people in ways that would be unacceptable in casual conversation, you have no problem with.


It is what it is though, feel free to tell me what I'm thinking or really saying.

yeah, some white Americans just go around looking to shoot black people for whatever reason. I don’t think ctdm is that kind of racist.
