Gillette's new ad asks men to not be bullies/rapists; right-wing backlash ensues

[DavidB.]

This sort of stuff makes me shift leftwards.

[T'Chenka]

Thank the LLC of your choice that fine folks like Badger, Joe and King T are here to protect the honor of Gillette.

Maybe we're just commending Wall Street for being right for once? It doesn't mean we can't cruticize everything else they do. Believe me Deadomon (is that a zombie Pokemon?) that I will be singing Trump 's praises the day he enacts Medicare For All. I will also be condemning him for basically everything else.

Your critique of us is basically the "ORANGE MAN BAD!!!" NPC meme but replacing Orange Man with Wall Street. How dare we have complex opinions that aren't 100% black and white? Sometimes bad people / groups do good things, and they deserve credit for those things (and only those things).

cunning plan to companies: make two sets of adverts for both crowds and use the data they collect on us to target the correct group. Therefore Trump voters will get Kid Rock saying "only drinking COKE will trigger the SOYBOYS! U! S! A!" and Democrats can get targeted with a Latinx trans dominatrix with green hair discussing Hamilton while sipping Woka-Cola.

UPDATE

Gilette releases new ad with Canadian trans man shaving for the first time.
https://www.denverpost.com/2019/05/26/gillette-transgender-man-commercial-shaving/

At least it's a positive ad compared to the last one which just defecated on men, throwing them all into a stereotype.

Someone was triggered by an ad that called on men to be their best.

by accusing them of uniformly failing at it for all of history up until the present #Metoo moment, when a chosen few were enlightened by the television talking heads.

Except it objectively did not do that.

I guess you must have seen a different version.

No, we didn't. You are just objectively and factually incorrect.

This is not a mere difference of opinion here. Just literally two plus two equals five wrong.

The first 35 seconds are images of boys and men being bullies and pigs.
An endless row of men barbecuing, mindlessly repeating "Boys will be boys."
Narrator: "But something finally changed"
Cut to Anita Sarkeesian talking about sexual harassment.

What the hell else are people supposed to take away from that, huh?

Um, not your hypothesis?

It is hysterical to watch conservatives, for all the yammering about liberal snowflakes, to get so triggered over the smallest threats to their hegemony.

That SOME men, not the majority by any means, can have bad practices, and that the majority of men can shrug off the behavior of those men. The average target audience member has NO idea who Sarkeesian is, so it's more about what the actual quote she said was rather than the fact that it's her.

Probably a good thing no one does know who she is, despite gamergate and somehow snaking her way onto Twitter's "Trust and Safety" board.

Since you love this commercial so much, maybe you could take a hint from it try not being so overbearing and hostile to everyone who happens to have a different perspective than you.

thank you!  It is so brave to stand up and defend Gillette against all those so "triggered" by it.  Because you are DEFINITELY not triggered by them, no sir!  And anybody that thinks you are is crazy.   The advertisement/After School Special got MILLIONS of dislikes dontchaknow?  And we all just know that those people went and encouraged their sons to go out raping in response to it, because there is no way anybody could have a "complex opinions that aren't 100% black and white" on it, that would be insane, right King T?  How could anybody be against the most obvious virtue signaling since Nike's Kapperneck advertisements?  If big companies aren't going to tell us how to be good people, who is?  Our parents?  Oh right, THEY'RE THE PROBLEM! ahahahahahaahah...wait, no, just the dad's, can't make fun of mom's that might "trigger" certain people, right Badger?


You aren't the hero trillion dollar companies (and moms) deserve, but you're the one they need.  Keep fighting the good fight sir.

guys I think deadoman is broken

[dead0man]

I'll be alright Joe, I have all you champions of capitalism here to tell me which advertisements I should use to teach me how to be a good person.

[Badger]

Having a libertarian assail progressives about being too pro-business and capitalistic is the exact Nexus between adorable and bizzare.
