You've got to be kidding me!! Do you think this is "racist"??

[Chaos]

Seriously.....wtf?

http://autos.aol.com/article/volkswagen-super-bowl-ad-racist/?ncid=webmail47

I don't see an ounce of racism in this.

[#1Townie]

If you have to ask its probably racist....... at least in the eyes of someone.

[CaptGoodvibes]

No such thing as bad publicity...

Not racist IMO

[CaptGoodvibes]

Here! For all the racists that insist only a black man can have a Jamaican accent. Too bad you can't reason with anyone anymore.

[#1Townie]

You are trying to reason with stupidity. It will never work. I know. Im stupid. Lol

[I`m Batman]

Well I can see it as being racist. Let say they used Asian accent... that would be racist, I think. So this one would be no different to their people.

[Grim2.0]

How is that racist, Jamaican people are usually happy that's all the commercial is depicting.

[Chaos]

Would it be racist if an Asian man sang Bruce Springsteen's "Born in the USA" in a commercial? Is the song "Everything is going to be alright" a black thing, a Jamaican thing only? So only Jamacians and/or black people can claim that premise that the song is a possitive message to all mankind?

[Ezzzzy1]

Too many retards taking too many things personally.

Island life will always be a carefree lifestyle. No clocks and a lot of laid back tradition.

Go live there. You will see that at the end of the day "its all good mon". Simple as that.

Part of why this country is fucked up is because everyone is so convinced that what THEY feel about the things they see and hear is truth. Its not.

The point of the commercial was to try and convey a point. Paint a picture and sell something with that. I would rather surround myself with people that are able to see that point than mutate this into something that matters to them (even though it doesnt matter to them)

Im almost thinking that screen names containing "Batman" shouldnt be allowed because its in poor taste with recent events in our own state....

Just kidding, but how much fun would it be to miss your whole point as to why you chose that name and just focus on the emotional (someones hurting my feelings) side of things.

Plain and simple. Over analyzing, bitch ass pussies that have nothing better to do than compare a commercial to something that Hitler wrote while feeling completely entitled to "their" opinion because its "right" can pat themselves on the back for making this country a more flucked up place.

[EVO8]

I dont know about racist but was pretty funny.

[jbnwc]

Anyone upset with the commercial completely missed the whole point of the ad. They need to smile a bit more.

[asp_125]

If you have traveled abroad any amount of time, you'd know accents are a product of where you live and not your skin color.

[bulldog]

How is that racist, Jamaican people are usually happy that's all the commercial is depicting. Well now lets go a step further and say why they are always happy....... :siesta:

:lol:

Werd, another ACLU failboat by the whiny oversensitive crowd. That commercial is awesome, love it! They better not pull it from the Superbowl, just to appease the far-left overly politically-correct dumbfucks!

P.S. It's only racist because it's a white man. Black people can make fun of white people and that's comedy, not racism. Haven't you ignorant people learned this? It's only logical! Just ask Chris Rock or Dave Chappell!

*facepalm*

P.P.S. I'm brown and Chaos claims I'm more racist than he is, lol!

John Farley of the Wall Street Journal referred to the ad as reminiscent of Jar Jar Binks from Star Wars

Oh it's those guys again lol. Morons...

[I`m Batman]

I'm not a super sensitive person but if you didn't have to deal with it growing up, you probably wouldn't know how it feels.
The commercial didn't offend me but "I can see" how it can offend some groups of people.

[bulldog]

The commercial didn't offend me but "I can see" how it can offend some groups of people. +1...doesn't bother me with, but I could see where some would get offended. I am Spanish and people will comes up and be like "hey holmes, what's up ese, let's go get a Corona". Like really you guys think this is how ALL hispanics talk. They think it is funny, but I find it annoying since I don't talk that way and don't even know Spanish. I've actually had people tell me to go back to Mexico that didn't even know me...and I don't even look that hispanic and was born hin the US along with like at least past 6 generations.


Plus does a company even want to put out a add that may have a negative effect on what they are trying to do; get people to like and buy their products.

I mean it sucks, but nowadays it seems you have to be very careful

[CaptGoodvibes]

Well now lets go a step further and say why they are always happy....... :siesta:

:lol:
I recently bought the same VW used in the commercial. It came with a doobie in the flowerpot... mon. :lol:

Not at all... Has anyone ever been to jamaica besides me? There are definately white people there that have the accent. People are stupid.

[Wrider]

So what you're saying is that the people who are calling the ad racists are, in fact, themselves racist for expecting it to be a black person with that accent.

[mdub]

racist smacist everyone is racist to a point.

saw the the snip on the news this am. i thought it was funny.

[CaptGoodvibes]

I'm definitely saying that since my prior post with a video of a white Jamaican.

You are correct sir! Everyone also needs to grow a thicker skin, especially online.

Because again....all stoners must be happy people too ;)

[bornwildnfree]

I grew up in Jamaica, in a suburb in Kingston. We moved there when I was 6. I had that same accent until we came back when I was 12. There's white people who live there who have the accent and there's black people. Same with the Bahamas. People will always find offence in something. It makes them feel important.

But this time it's a Coke Ad (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/01/31/coke-super-bowl-ad-racist-arab-american_n_2586620.html)

Saw that....f*#k them too.

A coworker of mine was laughing his ass off, so I asked him what was so funny. He was watching the VW and Coke commercials. He is black, and grew up around some Jamaicans in Atlanta. He said they are all generally happy people in his experience. He saw zero reason to be upset by either commercial.

[Ghosty]

Hahaa, so true! I also love bitching about bitches. (No offense to the ladies on here, sorry politically-incorrect, AGAIN!)

Ummm, I'm sorry but what was racist? If anything only the Camel has a right to be offended because the commercial made him look stubborn? Or are they saying Arabs are addicted to Coke?

What a fucking crock, all these overly-sensitive groups need to STFU, they're wasting my oxygen!

Side-note, ever see any Indians complain about racism? Good luck finding an instance, because it's frickin rare. In fact there are probably more whites complaining about racism, than Indians, lol! We never pull the race-card except when actually warranted! Also, we're all doctors or engineers, except the ones at the convenience store. Don't mess with us...

Apparently it was because the poll that was asking who should win didn't include the Arab dude. Hmmmm motorcycles, tour buses, and a camel might win? I think not.

[JKOL]

Apparently it was because the poll that was asking who should win didn't include the Arab dude. Hmmmm motorcycles, tour buses, and a camel might win? I think not.

The article also stated it is racist because it portrays "Arabs as backward and foolish Camel Jockeys, and they have no chance to win in the world," Imam Ali Siddiqui, president of the Muslim Institute for Interfaith Studies, said in an email. Another quote: "Why is it that Arabs are always shown as either oil-rich sheiks, terrorists, or belly dancers?" said Warren David, president of the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, or ADC.

He left out gas station/convenience store owners and cab drivers.........is what I would say if I was racist.

[asp_125]

Hey, they left out us asians! Where's a bad imitation of Jackie Chan? I wanna cry racist too! :wtf:

Yes, I'm asian.. but only from the waist up. :eyebrows:

I wish I had SO MUCH extra time on my hands and was so damn sensitive that I would actually bitch about something this petty.

Advice: Pull your head outta your ass, and go do some charity or volunteer work. Go sling some soup in the homeless kitchen. Go hug your kids.

Or do the rest of us a favor and just shoot yourself, kthxbye.

[maktastik_jr.]

im not racist, i hate on every race of people! it doesnt matter if your black, white, asian, indian, jamaican, or mexican, if your an ignorant asshole, ill probably hate you. skin color should be in no way a judge of character. unless your white like me, fuck white people bahahaha ;)
