Stupidity, even if there arent lots of black people in Poland there was no need to alter the image. Bullshit, what does this say about polish soceity? If people are different we should see them? There arent many asians over here but we dont photoshop them out of ads, Ive seen many ads in Japan/S Korea with whites and they dont photoshop. It doesnt matter if he was Arab, Latino, Black or a fucking Eskimo the fact that they photoshoped proves that Microsoft Poland has a few racist dickheads that need to be fired.

Hey buddy you really need to cool it.  Your setting a double standard. Don't bitch about something and then completly do a 180 on the other. You don't even know if a Polish person had a part in this. On top of everything there are also many people in Europe who have never seen a Black/African person in real life. It is the change people are scared of.

Want a better example look up Native Mexicans and Spaniards. The natives thought they were Gods because of their unusual light colored skin & advanced technologies and were treated as such. Had the Spaniards been less advance and unintellegent then it would have been reverse. It is the change that people fear... not the skin color.

I love how people try to act as if they understand racism then use derogitory language that makes you just seem unitelligetable. Also just display as much ignorance as the original offender but expect justice. Martin Luther King didn't cause change because he yelled a bunch of crap about how white people don't do this and do that. He gave repect and was given repect. That is how the world revolves. When respect isn't given to you once you have presented it then you are free to take it by force.
