White Culture vs Black Culture

For some reason one of these was blocked but not the other:

BIacks Taking L's @NsPostingFs: White Culture - Opéra Garnier in Paris
Black Culture - Fat black woman in Nike ad with "own the floor" motto
Wilfred Reilly @wil_da_beast630: "Actually, both of these are "white culture."

The poster was put up by a 100% white-owned, Eugene/Portland Oregon based company named after the Greek Goddess of victory, who booked this Black model over the objections of a millionaire Black VP to appeal to white liberal buyers.

56% of young, white, liberal women are severely mentally ill (formal diagnosis, drugs, etc). Google this. Just as minority men need to work on crime, you guys should....handle this problem, rather than blaming pathological guilt, empathy, physical self-harm, etc on me. #just_sayin"

i/o @eyeslasho: "A special place in social media hell should be reserved for accounts which take a bad example of one thing and a good example of another thing and then juxtapose them in an effort to represent the contrast as some kind of definitive statement on the matter. The intellectual bad faith involved in this type of exercise is off the charts.

You see a lot of this with "trad" accounts contrasting a photo of the worst brutalist institutional architecture imaginable with a photo of some exquisite Gothic church, or putting a photo of that satirical duct-taped banana art work next to a Rembrandt.

There's probably an account somewhere called Whites Taking L's that has a photo of John Coltrane's quartet marked "Black Culture" next to a photo of a toothless hillbilly playing a banjo marked "White Culture."

And of course in the meme here, the ideological impulse behind the billboard ad with the obese black woman isn't even black as much as it is weird circa-2020 white woke corporate culture."
