>When I tried to curl up next to my 4-year-old, though, I sensed her hesitation.

Kek, this piece is a gold mine. Why are journalists such cringey writers?
>has white daughter with white man >white daughter prefers other white people >wtf no

>despite "black is beautiful" propaganda everywhere and nobody allowed to be the least bit positive towards white beauty, everyone still instinctively understands that white is more beautiful than black >people still blame society and media as if that ever tells people that white is beautiful

Swing from a tree in the cool of a summer breeze, pedo demon.
Josiah Gray
hahahaha things that ever happened.
Lincoln Murphy
Nah, I can believe it. A few times I've heard little black girls say that dark skin is ugly. Self-hatred is embedded in plenty of minority women at a young age.
>"Black is beautiful" propaganda Where? For the most part, I just see "white is beautiful" propaganda as it's been that way for decades - commercials, television show protagonists, movie protagonists, video game protagonists.
Jonathan Roberts
Fuck off nigger
Nathan Jones
classic retard seething
Chase Kelly
Yeah, this is so over-the-top melodramatic that I have a hard time believing it.
Ryder Flores
Depends on your demographic.
Women are bombarded with beauty standards. Look at a magazine. (Because it makes them self conscious)
But white boys are bombarded with black is beautiful like zendaya.
Grayson Lee
this is a white supremacy board user, not a racial purity board. there i saved you some time.
Julian Lopez
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_is_beautiful Black Is Beautiful is an explicitly stated message that desperately tries to convince people that it's true by just repeating itself. What you're calling "white is beautiful propaganda" is the result of the instinctual preference that people have for light features. Protagonists and models are white because that's beautiful. They don't have to tell you it is because you see it and agree.
Dominic Perez
why does she live in a white country
Matthew Sanders
And yet they want our children to have black dolls etc.
Levi Robinson
Propaganda is unnecessary though. White being beautiful is an obvious fact.
Asher Wood
>My brown Indigenous Latina body Cringe
Jose Roberts
Does that mean we can fugg snow bunnies without you whites complaining about racemixing? The kids are going to be white anyway.
Adrian Williams
(((Racism))) ...is actually simply a genetic survival mechanism. You'd think the scientific democrazies would know that.
Jordan Gray
Because people who migrate to majority white countries are the ultimate IRL trolls, and being a troll is born of an inferiority complex. They can not receive the positive attention they want. So, they seek negative attention from those better than they are. It's the only kind which they're capable of acquiring.
Kevin White
No it means you're going to get a brain full of lead, taco nigger.
You'll be first to hang when society crumbles, user.
Christian Bell
my mom unironically kicked me out of our house because I dated someone less white than her. She's also an illegal immigrant
Adam Morales
No it means you have to fuck the goblinas instead of letting them produce slightly less brown kids who are so genetically unrelated to them that they find their own mothers repulsive on an instinctual level.

>My brown Indigenous Latina body stiffened; I labored to breathe
You underestimate how much social conditioning makes people prefer light skin. First off in every single culture in the history of mankind, light skin has been considered attractive because royalty was lightskinned. People who worked in the fields had darker skin than people who stayed in palaces all day, or teachers and academics etc. Thus light skin = status = attractive. That's the historical reason, but secondly, it's also because of media. The main stars of most conventional media are white, and we look to their stardom and status as attractive. Before you think this is "obvious", there are many case studies which show that you develop attraction to features based on media. There was a part of India that wanted to secede in the late 1900's, and to rebel the state government only showed Korean shows on TV for years. Generations grew up thinking Korea was the hottest shit as a result. My cousin married an Indian dude and he said his grandma etc. only ever wanted to go to Korea and thought people there were the best. Not Europe, not the US, only Korea.
And it's not just backwater third world countries where this is happening. Young American men today who consume a ton of anime often say that they prefer Asian women and their demeanor to white women. It's all around you. This is what the Jews are trying to do with more racemixing in popular media. You may think it doesn't work, but obviously there's way more interracial couples today than there were 50 years ago. Given enough time and enough signs of status for dark skinned people through lead roles in movies, sports etc. more and more people will steadily find darker skin increasingly attractive. You may think it's never gonna catch up but given say 30 years of intense programming it totally could to the next generation.
>I figured the unexamined nuances of my relationship with my melanin would be lost on her, so I kept my words simple and held back my tears. “What skin color do you think is beautiful?” Without pause, she chirped, “White! Like daddy’s belly.” She coveted the whitest part of his body, the color furthest from mine.
This woman is literally crying over her husband's stomach lmao.
Logan Davis
>protagonists and models are white because that's beautiful
Have you thought maybe you're biased, and that beauty comes in different, appreciated forms, and "white is beautiful" is only a thing because whites (and white-passing jews) in positions of power in media push forward whites and white-passing jews because people are still tribal?
>Magazines Yes. White women. Everywhere. All the time. In fact, I went grocery shopping two days ago and took a look at the magazine aisle in passing - still all white women with makeup + photoshop applied. Plus, go to the checkout and all the tabloids have white women on them - or Harry/Meghan, but who gives a fuck about them.
And what the fuck do you mean white boys are bombarded with black is beautiful? Zendaya is only in two well-known movies. Overall majority of Marvel movies includes whites in female roles, from Thor to Iron Man to Hulk to Doctor Strange (they fucking replaced the old asian dude with a middle-aged white british woman).
Just because a message exists doesn't mean it's reaching a wide audience. Most Hollywood and commercial producers and magazine makers won't tout that shit, because, at the end of the day, white (or, yeah, white-passing jews) wants to be on top and owns those avenues of media. Don't act like media is owned by brown/black people. It's not.

Dude this gave me a great laugh thanks so much

Jason Sullivan
Fucking THIS, thank you. Pol has this learned retardedness where it can pull a shit ton of things from history and can pin the result of something from different events over the course of the years, but it comes to poking at the clear white supremacy in media and suddenly they pull out Occam's Razor
Nolan Ramirez
That child was clearly socially conditioned to prefer her dad's milky white belly skin. Everywhere I look it's just supple pale bellies oppressing me and my brown indigenous latino body. How can we compete?
Lol shut the fuck up tryhard The girl is repulsed by her mother because she froze her eggs and is old enough to be her grandmother Digits confirm the dark skin comment never fucking happened
Lincoln Ross
what a racis bitch..why isn't she buying her a nice white dolly
kill yourself faggot we see the interracial ads everywhere every fucking day don't act like it dont exist
Asher Martinez
The entire case for desegregation in the states was based on a study that said black girls in mixed daycares preferred white dolls to black. What the people who presented this study to the judge didn't mention is that even in all black daycares, the black girls preferred the white dolls. This on top of the entire argument being caved-in-head retarded. "Black girls liking white dolls because they live around whites is bad, so let's integrate and have them live around even more white people." Judges have always been subversive activists.
Lincoln Lewis
Are you like blind? Or just a minority yourself and deny this because, if it is in fact true, your place in society is upheld by falsehoods?
