I can’t stand them. It is a false sense of secular piousness . The one I just watched sent me over the top. It was a Fitbit Commercial . All the couples or families were racially mixed, then there was the kid with two crutches in a tux and the final couple were two apparent white lesbian woman with African American children. Most of it is so contrived and sanctimonious. But dare to run a faith based commercial such as a pro life one and the knives will be out.

I don't like mixed messages. I read this below the video.

About Fitbit TV Commercial, 'Motherhood'

Motherhood is a journey that begins the moment a child is born.
It should continue..."Due to abortion, most journeys don't begin."

It's social engineering. These days if you're not on the edge of politically correctness you are a repressive bigot. Often there's more than a touch of pecuniary self-interest hiding in the high and noble message as well: lose your toxic masculinity!, says the razor company. (Oh, and BTW, you probably won't want that beard any longer...)

Yup


Rev. 18

7 As she glorified herself and lived luxuriously,
so give her a like measure of torment and grief.

8 Since in her heart she says,
‘I rule as a queen;
I am no widow,
and I will never see grief,’

I saw a commercial for a large clothing line here. It was a nice looking family and at the end, they said they were going to wear their new clothes to church. Then they said "Happy Easter!".
Also, a bread company here has a billboard that has bible verses on them.
They're far a few between, but there are some good ads still out there.

That Gillette Commercial was infuriating in the sense that they jumped on the PC band wagon that somehow young men are defective .
