This is about how prevalent virtue signalling is in media now compared to my personal daily social observations.
I'd post the commercial but it's not on YouTube so I'll describe it. I saw an Amazon commercial today. This was on a Toronto station. Nothing particular about it to me except how it ends. It ends with a camera shot inside a cargo van looking toward the rear doors. Full of packages to deliver. The back doors open by a 30 (?) year old black woman in the role of an Amazon delivery driver who takes out one of the packages, looks at the label, then closes the door as if on her way to deliver it to the recipients door.
After I started thinking. I've been ordering from Amazon and elsewhere online for at least a decade now. Of course I haven't been home for every UPS, Purolator, etc, package delivery but when I have it was never by a black woman. In fact- never a woman period. It's not because of where I live either I've had brown, white, black, you name it men but never a woman let alone a black woman.
Yet all the people I've seen contracted by Canada Post to deliver the mail and parcels to community mailboxes have been women where I live.
Just curious what others observations are.
