The black guy was attractive af, what is wrong with that woman.

You say as if it´s an objective thing.I might be wrong here (but I don´t think I am in this case), but for the average Chinese woman, that Chinese guy is the more attractive man.

No, no, it sounded like a subjective comment to me.  Now, please punish thatguymarco for making that statement by shoving an equally subjective statement of your own down his throat while pretending is an objective fact.... Yup, that the internet for you.

This commercial is a copy of an Italian commerical 9years ago (changed the italian man to a buff black guy), but I guess that was more acceptable back then since this seems to be like the first time anybody's ever seen such a commerical? Or i guess because the italian guy turned into a buff black guy its not racist? smh.

You could have argue like some that both are racist.  

Are you arguing that the black to white guys is the racist one and everything else is fine?  I'm a little unsure where you are going.  And stop shaking your head.  It isn't good for you lol.

By saying "what´s wrong with that woman", it seemed to lean more towards objectivity in my opinion.



Well the better major can agree that the both ads are Politically Incorrect, the PC movement can go die in a dark ally. Whether or not it is racist depend on how much you read into the ads.

I do love that notion that the evil is in the eyes and ears of the seeing/hearing person instead of the mouth of the talker...

You infer what you feel inside more than what was exactly proposed.

I'm surprised so many people are OK with the ad. It strikes me as offensive in so many ways. The black man is portrayed as dirty and lascivious. He's forced violently into the machine. He emerges as a clean, attractive, and acceptable Asian man.

No one thinks there's a racial/racist subtext here?



That's some powerful detergent
