“Holy Fuck” Indeed. Stereotyping? What’s That? [Updated]

Update: This video may be a parody, which raises further ethical issues that I discuss in the follow-up post. For now, I will leave this as written.]

The most incompetent Presidential campaign in modern history hits a new low, raising the question, “How low can it go?” In addition to the hilarious selection of actors (these are all actors, you know, although that guy talking about how much weight he can lifts is terrible) to represent manly men, the ad is predicated on the theory that men are morons and won’t be turned off by the demeaning stereotypical assumptions it represents.

The equivalent ad aimed at women would have Vegas showgirls, strippers and Sydney Sweeney talking about the rights of the unborn.

What an insult. And what an indictment of Harris’s advisors and staff.

  1. That’s got to be a parody. There’s no way anyone is that tone-deaf. Remember what happened with the Gillette anti-male commercials?

  2. Here’s the ad on YouTube. It seems to be satire but most sites are taking it as real. .Jacob Reed is a ‘Comedy and Commercial Director’ known for Jimmy Kimmel Live.

    From his bio: “Jacob has directed for Jimmy Kimmel Live, Comedy Central, Funny or Die, Nickelodeon and BuzzFeed. His ability to tap into pop-cultural moments has resulted in hundreds of millions of views for his videos, which as we know are the crack cocaine of the Internet.”

  3. My comment didn’t appear. Lately if I have a link in the comment it goes to moderation. Used to be I could have one link with no problem.

  4. I took admit I was likely fooled into thinking this was genuine. Looking back with 2020 hindsight, they did not include the obligicatory “I’m Kamala Harris, and I Approve this Message”. Really, far too subtle as an indicator of parady, but I did flag it my first watch through, thinking it got cut off in a retweet or whatever a re-tiktok is called.
