Part of the problem is referring to it as “Sydney Sweeney” rather than “eugenics-forward marketing”. It has nothing to do with her. Stop letting them define the conversation.

Is she not the face of it though? I agree that calling the issue eugenics-forward marketing is more accurate, but she is in no way blameless.

That is a deeper conversation. About representation/influence/pr and advertising in general. And if she is not blameless- see also Henry Winkler and Tom Selleck peddling reverse mortgages. For now-for this- the focus should be on the ad itself- not her.

No, she has “good genes” because she is hot. Not because she is white
