Sydney Sweeney does an ad for jeans, media throws a hissy fit

You're 100% right there my mistake!

Unfortunately it doesn't change the point being made, there is no situation where we should be using someone as a posterchild for great genes. Especially not when we have a massive increase in antisemitism and using blonde hair and blue eyes as an example of great genes when Nazi ideology is on the rise.

Does that answer your question?

Nowhere is being a Nazi defined by blue eyes or blonde hair so the idea that someone should be penalized for it is ridiculous.  Even if it was defined by that, no one should be made to feel ashamed of their DNA, which is what people are trying to do here.  This is absolutely an attempt to shame her for her features.  If the model had been Iranian--who were also accepted by the Nazi party--with dark eyes and hair then no one would be saying a word about it.  If she were overweight then the same people slamming her would be cheering her instead.

Personally, I don't think a person should be attacked for something that happened a long time ago, especially when her ancestors weren't even a part of it. 

I mean, telling someone else they can't do something because of their eye and hair color sounds more in line with Nazi beliefs than anything.

You know exactly what the relationship between Nazism and blonde hair and blue eyes is.

You've added so many things to what I've said but to address anyway:

Sydney should not be ashamed of her DNA.

I've explicitly said no one should be a poster child for great genes meaning your last statement is irrelevant.

If Iranians were part of the "superior race" idea of Nazism this would be just as bad.

I'm not attacking her I'm attacking the creators of the campaign. The holocaust had nothing to do with Sydney. 

Okay now we've addressed all of the points I didn't even make.

Are you at least going to acknowledge anything I've said regarding a huge rise in nazi ideology, anti-Semitism and holocaust denial and in the context of society right now that this isn't a bit weird? Or at least tone deaf?
