If you're like me, many years ago you noticed (in the US, anyway) that certain groups always have certain roles in TV ads. One example being that White guys always play the part of the idiot/slob/buffoon, who then has the product explained to them by either a smart/pretty woman or cool/smart Black guy (usually after they look at him and then look at the camera like "Get a load of this moron, amirite?").
Idk if this is all still the case in the US tbh, as I haven't owned a TV in like ten years (Hollywood disgusts me and YouTube is more interesting anyway, even though their censorship is getting out of hand). But apparently it still is the case in the UK, according to video I'll link below, from the YouTuber Despot of Antrim (and I am 90% certain that it is still the case in the US anyway, but if someone can confirm or deny this for me, I would appreciate it).
This video isn't just about that, though. It's almost two hours long and he points out all the things in dozens of commercials that he thinks are subliminal programming, and I think he's spot on with a lot of this stuff.
Not sure if it's worth making a whole post about, but I figured others like me might appreciate it after years of noticing these things on TV.

Love this stuff. I think if we could suddenly see all the ways we’ve been manipulated our entire lives, we’d probably go mad.
