She’s been doing advertisements that have really catered to incels but her most recent one was talking about “good genes” in an American eagle ad campaign. A lot of people have been talking about its eugenic undertones (overtones?).
"Jeans are passed down from parents to offspring. Often determining traits like hair color, personality, and even eye color." Camera focuses on her eyes "My jeans are blue”
American eagle then tried to gaslight and claim they tots meant just "jeans" but wait:
Btw eugenics= good (eu) heritage/genes (genos)
"You're reading too much into it"-Very intelligent people [definitely super intelligent I promise]
Ah yes the enlightened centrist. “Just calm down bro” it’s “just an ad for genes (jeans) bro”
Ironic cuz those jeans look terrible
