Talk about living in a bubble. Nike is an ultraglobal brand. The people who A. saw those ads and B. considered them negatively represent maybe 0.5% of global revenue. If even that. They sure weren't running "body-positive woman" ads in Tokyo and Zagreb.
It's time you get out there and meet some people from different backgrounds rather than something filtered down to like-minded people, and hopefully realize that your frame of reference is very limited.

- throwaway2037 15d agoI am laughing reading this "double text". Chef's kiss. I had to re-read your original post a couple of times, then I could see it: "You are right...". Do you remember about six months ago when LLMs were still mostly shit and you needed to argue with them? They would insist that something was true, but in the same chat session they said it was false earlier? It was a daily occurrence for me six months and before. So infuriating!
