There's probably drama here
Thanks for asking! The original Jake did great at delivering his famous line, “uh…khakis.” However, this expanded role is very demanding and is best filled by a professional actor. ~LM

they are running out of things like this to complain about, apparently. it's the only explanation for throwing a fit over a white guy doing one commercial and then becoming a black guy.

There was a commercial where a fat cis white hetero guy was making fun of his wife and implying at the same time that the person with a male-coded voice on the other end of the line MUST be "a guy" just because xe was assigned male at birth. This obviously became problematic in light of new modern gender scientific advancements.
Behold the HORRIFIC TRANSPHOBIA that led to the original Jake being (rightfully) FIRED and hopefully KILLED:

God darn you all are ignorant plebs
The skit was a man called in to get a deal on car insurance late at night. The wife thought he cheating on her, so she took the phone and asked for the "mistresses" name. The insurance guy said "jake from state farm". The wife asked " Okay jake from state farm, what are you wearing?" And jake says "Uhhh khakis"

I mean I'm annoyed at how many ad characters have to be various diverse races and I'm not even a chud. And you can't really express that because it's not really any given ad at fault. Like it makes sense that bipocs would be in some ads, so every company that puts out an ad with a bipoc in it can be like "we deserve to have this bipoc, all those other companies should be filling the mayo quota" even though none of them ever do. Its only in an instance where they race swap the ad character that you can be like "See! They really are deliberately putting in more bipocs then are necessary!" Except honestly you can't even there, because they could be like "what? we chose a black actor? We are so colorblind (except not in a racist way) that we didn't even notice
". Which is basically what they do here. They don't address why he's black at all, even though that was the question. They just answer that they had to swap him out because the old one wasn't a professional actor or whatever.
