Trying to force “social justice” down the throats of unsuspecting consumers
It would be nothing less than pure poetic justice if the San Francisco Police Department sued Pepsi for the political, Kendall Jenner “social justice” video that public outrage forced the soft drink giant to remove.
Pepsi pulled the ad Wednesday, apologizing and saying it was merely trying “to project a global message of unity, peace and understanding.”
Sure on what grounds? Where the police in that video identifiable?
There was absolutely nothing offensive in the Pepsi ad.It showed how the police are people too,and were not happy to be there.
San Francisco vs. Kendall Jenner. I don’t know who to pull for in this case. I think I’ll just sit this one out. Hopefully, both sides will lose, if that’s at all possible.
Unauthorized Virtue Signaling?
>> merely trying “to project a global message of unity, peace and understanding.”
And not to forget, Pepsi products.
well is was absolutely offensive to me the first time I saw it.... I thought what the s**t is America coming too? The police have been humiliated enough already.
What I saw was one person offering another a simple act of kindness.And in my opinion that’s what it’s going to take to start to reverse the polarized mess we find ourselves in.I do recognize that some (maybe most)leftists are beyond hope however.
offering the pepsi was ok.... almost like the flower in the rifle barrel at Kent State.... but the mass cheering and jumping I felt was degrading to the police.... It just did not make me feel good toward those progressives’ defiant attitudes.
IOW, Pepsi was trying to reprise Coke's "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing" campaign from the 60s. Another example of living long enough to see everything old become new again, I guess.
More cops to provide sanctuary?
What makes the BLM bunch think they have a corner on protesting? Everything in this world doesn’t revolve around them.
Personally, I didn’t thing the ad was bad, at all. Jenner is a cute spokesperson, as was Britney Spears.
Some folks just need to find something offensive about everything. They’re idiots, IMO.
