So the company whose slogan used to be "The only kind made by white labor" is finding new ways to not hire minorities. I'm shocked.

Don't take their PR at face value. It's all about saving money by not hiring any models, but they can't brag about layoffs so they spin it into a diversity thing. In reality they probably don't give a fuck who's modeling their jeans nowadays and their skin color as long as it sells product.

Also, the shit about white people was from the 1880's. Not really a fair critique, they hire plenty of minorities these days. Racism is bad for business.

Yeah, but that's literally 141 years ago. Not really relevant. Corporate culture rarely survives more than the length of one generation's careers unless family owned.
