Pepsi Super Bowl advert blasted as racists - towards Blacks
Some Black Democrat Senator, Sheila Jackson Lee, has taken offence with the Pepsi Maxi advert aired during the Super Bowl. It ends with a Black women trying to throw her Black partner with a can of Pepsi because he's openly leering at a White girl sitting next to him. He ducks and the can of Pepsi hits the White girl in the face, hitting her onto the ground. Both Blacks then run off apologising and giggling. And then this bright spark, Ms Jackson, thinks it's demeaning towards Black African American women?? Ms Jackson - let me tell you what's demeaning about this Pepsi advert - what's demeaning is that the whole advert depicts Blacks, up until the end when they add a blonde White women who "flirts and leers" at a Black man! That is demeaning! Just which planet does Pepsi live on?? And what's further demeaning is that the White woman is left on the ground, unassisted whilst the Blacks run off (ok, that is accurate, but that they actually admit it in an advert hoping to sell Pepsi??). Why didn't they just have another Black woman in the ad? Why would they force an interracial angle? More and more, Whites are being bashed and I'm getting sick of it. If you want to see another example of White bashing (males this time), then I've also posted the Doritos advert, which also aired during the Super Bowl. Here a White male sucks the fingers of a Black male and then sniffs someone's pants. Real classy.....not. Another two companies I'll be avoiding buying products from.
