Bear in mind, the context is that she wants the guy she's singing about to impregnate her. If talking about good genes is a nazi thing, then the implication is much stronger here than in a punny denim ad.
The answer is in the lyrics. She was talking about the guy having "good package" and assumed he got it from his "dad". There was no race implied tho. Could be black, could be asian, could be white 🤷♀️
There wasn't race implied in the American Eagle ads either. One focused on her breasts, one on her buttocks and one on her eyes to make an obvious blue jeans pun. Of course the culture war grifters laser focused on that one to start a race discourse dumpster fire.
Interestingly, most of the right wing responses I saw did not make it about race. They highlighted that she was conventionally attractive, slim and not wearing a hijab. I think the online left seriously overestimates the relevance of white supremacy in the American right. It really doesn't go much deeper than the baseline American flavour of white supremacy shared by both parties. They certainly aren't that concerned with racial purity, given how many of them are Jewish, black and Latino. Those who do care about the purity of the white race are fringe weirdos represented by the likes of Nick Fuentes who isn't even really a white person either.
Just a blonde-haired, blue-eyed woman talking about her good genes. How could that be construed as white supremacist behavior? Guess we'll just have to wonder, huh?
Saying a hot person has good genes has been a well-established corny joke since long before any of us were born. It's even a lyric in the very song Sabrina Carpenter is performing in the discussed image.
I know, right? There was clearly no subtext at all in a time of open discrimination in the country. I’m so on your side bro. Good genes, not like some others.
Where did you get that from? Friendly fire. Look, the same people who think MAGA is white think the genes ad was a white supremacist dog whistle is all.
So fucking stupid. She does have good genes. If it was a hot black chick you wouldn't have white people freaking out about some "black supremacy" bullshit cause everyone would go "yeah she's hot and has good genes."
It's funny that the only people who can hear these "dog whistles" are lefties. Really says something about who's racist and who's not.
Why are you yelling at me? I’m with you. I’ll never understand why that ad caught so much attention for being racist. Everyone should have just looked at her white boobs.
Brother, samesies-samesies. Why the hostility? Boobs, bro. Boobs. C'mon. Fug yeah! Smash some brews brother. We're the same. Subtext is for nerds anyway. Books n shit.
Reading any sincere political message into an ad is a mistake, whether it's a "woke" message or a "nazi" message. All ads have the exact same agenda: to sell a product by appealing to the widest possible demographic.
