Not that I pay much attention to these things, but I do distinctly remember, not that long ago, that diaper companies used to put photos of human babies on the packaging. There were black babies, Asian babies… and even a few White babies.
I never kept track of the evolution of diaper packaging, but I did happen to notice a change at my local grocery store a couple of days ago, here in Dominican Republic. They sell American brands, but also one that appears to be Dominican, or at least Latin American.
Well, what do you know? They now all feature animals. Baby animals, but animals all the same. Why avoid images of human babies when the product is clearly meant for human babies? I seriously doubt anybody is buying them for her pet.
The answer should be obvious: They don’t want to enter controversy. No matter what race of human baby they feature, somebody is going to complain that their own race is not represented enough. Next time I’m in the US, I’ll check to see if any of the brands still use human babies. I’m hoping that the answer is NO.
For me, this signals a sign that the pushback against DEI (AKA “negrophilia”) is bearing fruit. Companies are starting to respond. Hopefully, small victories like this will expand into more meaningful victories. Ultimately, we want a homeland for White people. Now THAT would be a change!
