When you think of LEGO, whom would you imagine as their clientele? Perhaps a White male child? WRONG!!! Single black women professionals are their target demographic now (media.kotakuinaction2.win)

The "blacks in advertising" redpill is a good one. We are blasted with advertising everywhere, all the time. Once you put that bug in someone's brain, it will be reinforced nonstop. Even better if it's a normie who mainlines that mainstream media 24/7. It's like staring /pol in the face.

It says 12+ on the box. I guess that doesn't mean required mental capacity unless the intent is to exclude leftists.

Do kids even play with legos anymore? Or do they just play on their tablets?

I legit wouldn't be surprised if the 30+ crowd is their target demo these days.

Those look like the worst legos ever. Good luck re-using those bricks in literally any other build except a bottle/stand.

Used to be kids would build their own imagined stuff with highly versatile building blocks. Now Legos are basically just licensed prefab model kits with a branded lo-fi aesthetic.

Todays lego aren't made for children. It's about as fun as assembling Ikea furniture. Instead they are made for overgrown manbabies and wannabe-nerds.

Lego stopped pushing kits for imaginative building a long time ago. Because once you have them, you don't buy more.

Now they only sell "build it yourself" models that are too expensive to let children play with.

and in-between they had a brief stint of "here's a shitload of fiddly-little-bastard parts and a detailed assembly manual, for when you finally get tired of trying to replicate the box-art without instructions."

Those were, at least, reuseable parts.

I'm pretty sure I've seen most of the pieces used in that set in others. For example the "bottle" is composed of pieces used as windows/walls. I actually bought this set for my sister and while I think I built the less structurally stable parts, she put in a fair bit of thee work. That said I do agree that this set clearly isn't really intended to be deconstructed.

Oh yes, I'm sure the single childless professional 30 year old overweight black women are just lining up to buy lego sets of... boats in bottles.

I have that set. It was a fun build. Sits next to my F40.

Neither old warships nor 80s supercars were designed or built by single black female professionals though.

Noob question, but what's the code to format lists in comments?

permalink parent save report block reply

– then 3 points 4 years ago +3 / -0

the bullets? that is not a "list", those use numbers, in markup language called "markdown language" , that above is called a "Bulleted list".

I could have cheated and typed a "BULLET" symbol, but I did not.

That above was done using a HYPHEN as first character on a new line, then a normal SPACE then NOT A SPACE, and for safety at the end of each line I put two invisible special characters called "NON-BREAKING SPACES" prior to a return. The NON-BREAKING SPACES might not be needed, and are not even rendered back to browser, but in this site they are critical if typing too short of a sentence.

Born in Connellsville, Pennsylvania, United States into a traditional Jewish family and raised in Homestead, Pennsylvania, Marcus became interested in Reform Judaism at the age of 15. At that time, he travelled to Hebrew Union College (HUC), in Cincinnati, Ohio, to begin his rabbinical training.

Looks like you're Jewish too.

Why are you quoting only statistics about Jewish ownership of 50+ slaves / plantations?

I can't see all the claims that have been made in this thread, thanks to excess moderation. But I'm going to guess that the claims were along the same lines as others I've heard, such as: "There were a lot more Jewish slave owners than white, but they were almost entirely city dwellers with 1 or 2 house slaves. Meanwhile, there were fewer white slave owners, but they frequently owned massive plantations with hundreds of slaves. In other words, there were more Jewish slave owners, but more slaves were owned by Whites."

Your counterpoints don't contradict that claim. But if the claim is true, then your points come across as deliberately calculated to paint Jews in the best possible light.

So my question is, what's going on here? Was there a different claim being made, which you're points actually contradict? Do you have evidence that the claim in assuming was made is false? Why did you feel the need to limit your stats to owners of 50+ slaves, as if only that number is relevant?
