Sweeney’s new American Eagle advert marketing campaign has been extensively criticized for allegedly selling “Nazi propaganda” by being a “racialized canine whistle” praising blond hair and blue eyes.
The advert is a play on the phrases “genes” and “denims,” with the tagline: “Sydney Sweeney Has Nice Denims.”
“When these traits are persistently uplifted as genetic excellence, we all know the place this leads,” one TikTokker argued.
“This simply echoes pseudoscientific language of racial superiority. All all through historical past, these traits have been weaponized to uphold a racial hierarchy,” the consumer added.
Others expressed their anger and disapproval within the feedback part of American Eagle’s Instagram posts selling the marketing campaign.
“Jesus Christ – that is such a f–ked up marketing campaign,” one particular person commented, whereas one other claimed: “It’s giving ‘Refined Thirties Germany.’”

Extra pictures included her displaying off her midriff in a white T-shirt tied up right into a crop high with saggy denim.
