    Just saw that Paddington Bear advert as of this thread, aside from him saying "fuck you little bear" I thought it was really good. What are people mad about this time, the burglar turning into Santa good will story?

    Idiots bitching about a inter-racial couple because apparently we're living in 1917

    You do know that there actually were Emperors (and other important figures) of African descent in the Roman Empire? It was a remarkably diverse place, especially in its later years, and especially in the army.

    Like, if people want to bitch at stupid shit like black Vikings, be my guest, but whining about that sort of thing just shows the ignorance of the person whining.

    I bet advertisers tweak these commercials just enough so that they generate some internet buzz. All those social media comments are free publicity.

    Racism is just so profoundly dumb sometimes I can't figure out how to interact with it - do they get that they aren't responsible for the actions of other white people, let alone fictional people?

    Actually I suspect they don't give two frigs about the online cesspool that is YT comments

    Exhibit B : the presumably 4-chan coordinated comments of all proud internet warriors, who fight each other trying, to shoerhorn the most call to murders possible while bashing a Christmas add with a teddy bear....hey I will let you discover those wonderful ''christian'' message about hanging women who sleep with non white, gassing Jews and putting bullets in the heads of kids of mixed ''race''
    Is this a thread about the comments on a YouTube clip??? Must be a slow news day. Literally ever comment section of everything on the internet, is full of vile stuff being said. I fail to see the relevance of the topic. Maybe someone else can help me out?

    What is there to argue? Was just laughing at your self-jerking to make yourself feel better. All your post said was "blah blah buzzwords are true blah blah I think I am right everytime I post blah blah."

    Next time you want to make yourself feel better save yourself a post.

    There are plenty of white couples you can see in commercials. There is no shortage of them, that is unless you want all commercials to feature white couples.

    Ahh I see, well with that case it's a sort of "damned if you do, damned if you don't" situation for the guys making these adverts.. Stuff like this goes over my head a lot though I have to admit, I would never have picked out that reasoning for the fuss as I was too focused on the story between the Burglar and the Bear to focus on the minor details.

    Is this your first time reading YouTube comments, or coming in to contact with trolling?

    These people aren't an issue. It's the cynical politicians that use that fear and ignorance who are. But that isn't new. Fascism was built on that, and it is a way where no one win in the end.

    But whatever, there will be people who will blame others rather than question themselves and how they live. I have seen that with anti-feminists nerds on the Internet. Yeah, I spend all my waking time behind a computer and I want a girlfriend to pamper me like my mother used to do. But I can't find one! It's because of feminists that make good girls hate men, not because I can't consider women as an human being. And that the same thing with racism.

    Let them live in their own little bubble on the Internet, where they think they matter, and let's focus on making the real world better. They will just disappear as time goes, because you can't go against history. Now, it is our responsibility to make politicians understand that these ideas are outdated and shouldn't be used for their own personal ambition. That's a bigger and more important fight.
    Exactly. Society will continue to get better for more people overall despite some wanting to go back into the past cause... nostalgia., might be able to slow down the train but can't stop it.

    Those folks who were upset that white folks were in commercials, demanding more non white folks be in commercials, are totally not racists because there are plenty white folks. Got it. Well these folks not wanting non white folks are totally not racists as well then since there are currently plenty of non white folks in commercials. Just trying to be consistent with the logic here.

    I think it's more the feeling that because of how regularly it occurs in adverts where they likely placed emphasis on finding a mixed race couple (which makes sense for advertising, more people involved = more people maybe associate themselves with the individual and the related product), it seems forced to the point that it becomes disproportionate to reality. That brings the argument back to the whole 'quota's' thing in the workplace. It's quite the rabbit hole.

    Fortunately I don't watch tv and have adblock so I can ignore posts about adverts without agreeing or disagreeing.
