Corporate Racism: Russia investigates Nike for allegedly refusing to use white people in its advertisements




People are starting to notice a growing trend among major corporations’ advertisements and that is the auspicious lack of people with a lighter pigment skin colour.

The obsession with virtue signalling has meant the meaning of “diversity” morphing into a lack of white people.

Now A Russian citizen in Moscow has launched a formal complaint against American company Nike for its alleged racial discrimination against Russians.

RU Poster reports that a resident of Moscow asked the Investigative Committee to check the American company Nike for racial discrimination against Russians. The complainant, named Yevgeny Smirnov, found it offensive to see the almost complete absence of white models on Nike’s Russian-language site.

This trend not only extends to large American corporations but has been noticed in advertisements across Europe, including in Ireland, where memes are circulating online suggesting that according to ads on Irish TV, the Emerald Isle is now 90% gay and black.
