First, it has to be said that Kellogg's pulled this box from the shelves. But... It's astounding that they ever thought it was a good idea. @saladinahmed is spot-on. I really like the even tone he used in his tweet. He didn't use any righteous anger or name-calling. He approached it as a learning experience for Kellogg's. He showed them what the net effect of that image was, and left it to them to decide what to do. Pretty dumb from the start, but kudos to both parties at the end.
Funny. Somehow this is worse than indoctrinating school kids in Critical Race Theory which teaches that a global white conspiracy is oppressing everybody.
In what way is this worse? It looks to me that you have another example which fits in this topic. It seems worth expanding upon.
` ` I think I can say with the upmost confidence, that the Kelloggs corporation is operating at maximum damage control haste, to rectify this horrendous insult, to a handful over hyper sensitive people. I understand they are setting up a fund, to help those children whom are permanently scarred by this catastrophic event. `
When I was a kid, I stared at every bit of the cereal box. Sure, if I saw that image, I wouldn't have given it any deep consideration. I can't say that it wouldn't be just absorbed, though. I think it would.
I could go through a Box in one sitting ... and if there wasn't a free toy in it, I didn't bother looking at it.
Unless they've grown up in a cave, they don't know to ask why someone has lighter/darker skin, or is fat etc.
It's been tested and studied, repeatedly. Once again, this is only if they've been exposed to a wide variety of humanity from early in life. Raise a kid around fat people, thin people, tall people, short people, dark people, light people, straight black hair, curly blonde hair, etc etc, and they don't register (overtly/consciously) physical differences later in childhood/life.
that's not (even remotely) the same thing as the ordinary childhood processing of others. for colourblind children, differences in size, shape, colour etc are the same as differences in shirts. or rather, of no more consequence. these kids are interested in what other kids like, and what they say and do.
All of this ideological handwringing because greedy hogs and ideologues insist on mass migration. If they let nature alone, there wouldn't be all this fuss.
That was you. Not me, I noticed differences, and I liked them, I hated racism and bigotry, at an early age, Why ? I had relatives that were other races, and I hated racist jokes etc.... Such hypocrisy.
You do not understand nuthin anyways. I straddled both Worlds a lil Jewish White boy with Black relatives. Moses married an Ethiopian woman and Miriam was critical of that and G-d punished her with Leprosy, since that marriage was pre-approved...by an even higher authority, than a man.
