I'm not sure Proctor & Gamble thought this out very well...

LOL, wow

[USN_Hokie]

Wow is right.

Yipes.

They may convince me if they want to talk about all bias...because that video was, well...biased.

[awesome guy]

They're in a tough spot though. Crap like that is laughable to reasonable people, but millennials believe it's a documentary. At some point, the retarded generation will have buying power and so we'll have more messages like this. Use older folks are going to be overlooked in favor of the dopey young'ns. It's stupid, but also the future.

Nice, we have "progressed" to 1968 Mississippi..congrats progressives, great job.

[BigDave]

They will get pats on the back from the left ... and there won't be any blowback because their name isn't really the brand you buy - they own hordes of brands, but their initials are just in the corner - it's not as though it's P&G branded.

If I still owned PG stock, I'd be annoyed that they were wasting my money on things that don't bring in revenue.

WTH, "do you have your ID, in case you get stopped"

"its not about being pulled over, its about coming home"

What a load of crap, the only word they left out was if you get pulled over by a white pig

how about a talk about not breaking the law or not killing other black people, the biggest danger those black kids faced.... is other black people

[USN_Hokie]

This is the type of crap that happens when you let SJWs into your business. I'm guessing P&G gets a lot of their revenue from sales to minority groups.

If I were a cop I'd be frigging pissed.

Oh, I dunno.
It is an ad. It is designed to evoke emotions, and it does.

Effective, IMHO.

[Mcl3 Hokie]

Emotion or victimization? This video does nothing more than further the victimization with a racial overtone card.

It's offensive to a large percentage of the population. In what world is that effective?

Just more division promoted by leftists......nothing changes. More of the same from those that brought you the KKK and segregation.


But, but, muh Southern Strategy!

Gotta give a couple of The Usuals credit for not threatening a boycott that they were never going to carry out. [emoji106]

As for the ad, it's a dumbfounding business decision to get into this arena.

After looking at the all the products that P&G make I was surprised that we don't use any of them...not that I would have boycotted them anyway.

So you disagree with my take that it's a bad business move by P&G. Did not see that one coming.

golly gee, that's exactly what I was talking about! If you were a country then you'd be Derpistan.

[oaktonhokie]

We'll have to wait and see if it's bad business.

Black people will REALLY care about this. They will REALLY support it.

White people are not allowed to be offended and after about thirty seconds of "WTF..." won't care.

It's stupid, it's divisive, it's anti cop.

It's part of the socialist agenda. So...?

This was probably done by P&G's President for diversity and inclusion. He/she/it wanted to be relevant. So the price P&G had to pay to show its respect for diversity was several million dollars to produce this garbage run it on tv.

And the industry will give them an award...i'll betcha...and their president for diversity and inclusion will get a little trophy at the next advertisers' awards ceremony.

And the beat goes on....

it all hinges on what percentage of P&G products are accepted by BET cards.

You guys think that cleaning, hygiene, and baby products are minority products? OK....
