Again, inference.
When light skinned people get dirty they get darker - fact not opinion.
The job of laundry detergent is to make things clean - fact not opinion.
The commercial takes a black man and uses him to portray a very dirty Asian man - culturally unacceptable in most of Western civilization - and then uses the detergent to make him clean and back to his normal "desirable" self. In their opinion, this was funny and worked. In my opinion, it is through a cultural prism that we see this as an unacceptable form of humor. If we weren't so sensitive to race, it would be a non-issue. Hell, it would be even worse if they used "black-face" to do it.
