I could get in trouble for saying this.....but.....that ad was cornball as fuck. Cheesier than a stuffed crust pizza.

I know, but that's like ... every ad campaign for a useless product, ever. It was especially bad, but it didn't stick out as that much worse than the other ones I have seen.

True. Lot's of ads are cheesy. But that one, with the climate at the time, the relationship between the police and the public in general, but more importantly, what was happening with black lives matter.....It was truly, hilariously terrible. Much more so than a run-of-the-mill ad that tries to illicit an emotional response by depicting a kid sharing a Pepsi with grandma at Christmas. Or talking with grandma on your sweet long distance plan. Or whatever with grandma. :)

Are people protesting his right to the First Amendment by... burning their own stuff? Is that is what is happening here because it seems really dumb.

1) Pepsi isn't a useless product. 

2) The Pepsi ad featured Kendell Jenner not a Kardashian. They're cousins but still.

3) The ad was controversial because it had a terrible messege. The ad was saying that drinking Pepsi can solve serious problems like police brutality and racism.



Guess Nike doesn't know about "go woke, go broke". Alot of sports fans are mad over the NFL becoming more political and the viewership is dropping. https://www.forbes.com/sites/jonathanberr/2018/08/28/the-nfls-ratings-probably-will-continue-to-decline/#6a072b026666 The NFL has finally stopped them from kneeling and won't touch Colin. ESPN has gotten political and as a result, there ratings keep dropping/losing subs. https://www.outkickthecoverage.com/espn-loses-500000-subscribers-april/

Don't these dumbies know that sports viewers are mainly conservative except with certain sports. 🙀 What possessed Nike to do this...

1) Sure it is

2) Just shows how relevant it was 

3) That's not really any different from ads about "world peace" though, which has been a popular marketing tactic for a long time for just about any product

To make liberals forget that child slaves assemble Nike shoes?

Protesting Nike's sweatshops is actually a more Noble crusade, than protesting Nike because they paid Kaepernik for an ad as they officially joined his crusade.

I haven't seen Mr. Bow Tie in quite a long time. I was mostly familiar with him through the filter of The Daily Show in the early-to-mid aughts. #libertardcucksnowflakefeminazi
