I think the only path ahead...for future commercials, is to have only robots do the ‘finger-licking-good’ routine.

They might want to hold off on the new watermelon fries.

My biggest concern right now is whether the KFC ad is racially insensitive.

Give me a break. Blacks and other minorities are all we see in ads today. It’s if white people no longer exist. Of course those in the media, politics and advertising wish that were true.

Haha. The Left demands that all commercials use only black actors then screams "racism" when a KFC commercial shows a black person licking his fingers.

Gee, you’d think the lesbian community would be most upset. 🤷

Blacks upset by a commercial of Blacks eating fried chicken.
But no outrage at commercials featuring Blacks in HIV medication ads.

Perhaps all parties would be appeased with a redo of the ad campaign featuring Justin Trudeau in Blackface, licking his fingers?

One solution to prevent something like this from every happening again would be to not use black actors in advertisements of any sort, ever.

“The chorus was originally “I’m all out of love, I want to arrest you”. However, Clive Davis thought that would be confusing to American audiences so he suggested “I’m all out of love, I’m so lost without you”, which led to him being given a songwriting credit.[3”
Looks to be the original lyrics apply to Canadian wokesters.

I was waiting for this to happen. Blacks dominate the advertising world. Fried chicken advertising.

I could give a rat’s ass. If they had 3 white people, it would’ve been racist. If 3 guys, sexist, If 3 straight guys, homophobic.

If KFC had used white actors, that would have been racist, too. Everything is racist.

PS Have they blamed Trump yet? (Not really kidding.)

Blacks really don’t matter anymore. They can never be satisfied while they exist on the Plantation insisting on tribal values

Only the Afro heritage Minority-Minority members live satisfied, assimilated lies.

It seems the thickness of the skin is more at issue here, rather than the color. Get over it, it’s a chicken ad!

My grandchildren are shielded at home from commercials…. The 20 month old questions, “happened” , raising her up turned palms, when a commercial comes on.. The three year old has a complete melt down when a commercial came on.. the two six year old, attempted to console their siblings… “ it is just a commercial “…. Times are a changing.
