I think we all know why. Systemic racism, and the stereotypes that come about because of it.

Yeah, it was sadly ~~theoretical~~ rhetorical. In the same way I could've asked why the beer one is the all-star quarterback/boys-will-be-boys poster child. 🤢

edit: stupid auto-"correct"

Rhetorical? I'm pretty sure you mean rhetorical not theoretical.
Yeah, I got that, but if we don't say it, and keep saying it, and keep pushing for change... it's not going to happen.
