A thread about mid-century advertising as it relates to sexism and racism: Perhaps it's because I spent my childhood with a camera pointed at me, but I have a morbid fascination with ads created by white, upper middle class ad execs who thought racism and misogyny was cool.

@Phil_Lewis_ @ClaraJeffery I was a child actor in The '60s and '70s. This is exactly what my parents did to me: Commodified and stole my childhood. I have been Cassandra about this subject for the last decade+. What is happening to these children is absolutely criminal, but there are no laws against it.

Spare me the hot-takes saying 'When you've lost Ann Coulter...' She backed this cruelty for decades. Now, she's pretending she wasn't supporting it 100%. It gives them plausible deniability as the GOP continues to legislate pregnancy and contraception. Don't believe this bitch.

The prolife movement has gone from compassion for the child to cruelty to the mother (and child). Trisomy 18 is not a condition that is compatible with life.

@MissLoreleiLee Sanders is nothing but a carpetbagger who spent 30 years trashing the DNC, and hasn't gotten over losing by a solid margin of 3.5 million votes. The man is a fraud (and probably a Russian stooge) who never found a parade he didn't think he should be the Grand Marshal of.
