"The Coke commercial for the Super Ball is racist, portraying Arabs as backward and foolish Camel Jockeys, and they have no chance to win in the world,"

Boo hoo. Cry me a river.

[the OlLine Rebel]

So this goes along with gripes about the VW ad?

[Biggirl]

....And so the pre-Super Bowl fun and games begins.

"Why is it that Arabs are always shown as either oil-rich sheiks, terrorists, or belly dancers?"

Why is it that so many of them are ". . . oil-rich sheiks, terrorists, or belly dancers?"

That includes the one sitting in the White Hut.

Warren David, president of the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, or ADC.

They should change it to....

Committee of Anti Discrimination..... CAD for short.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Sorry Mo, the "camel jockey" thing has already been done.

[MrB]

Seems to me these references are to culture, not race.

[Cyber Liberty]

I expect Coke to fold like a cheap suit.

[windsorknot]

Super Ball? Is that a game for Camel Jockeys?

[2 Kool 2 Be 4-Gotten]

Super Ball? I used to play with those as a kid.

[2 Kool 2 Be 4-Gotten]

Next thing - what they’re going to show blacks playing basketball? Asian kids doing well in school? Latino’s driving around in cars? It’s awful I tell ya, it’s awful.

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

Sorry Achmahd, it can’t be racist. Like me, Arabs are part of the geneaology attributed to descendants from the Caucasus region of northeastern Europe.

You, Mohammed, is caucasian.

[areukiddingme1]

Wait, so they don't have camels in the desert, or we are just not supposed to point it out...I'm confused. Someone please call these dopes a wambulance...

[Wyrd bið ful aræd]

When you, members of ADC, have time to bitch about crap like this, it tells me that you have nothing better to worry about and are therefore vapid buffoons.

[NY Cajun]

I want to protest the derogatory way in which cowboys are portrayed in this silly commercial.

"Why is it that Arabs are always shown as either oil-rich sheiks, terrorists, or belly dancers?" said Warren David." Islamic Jew Hatred: **GRAPHIC** Muslim Massacre Jewish family of Five, Three Year Old Stabbed in the Heart, Baby's Throat Slashed Well here is the real picture of how these murdering fools are..Racist is the least that they are they are murdering thugs..

[Buckeye McFrog]

Arabs in the Arabian Peninsula are actually very proud of their Camel Culture. They go on desert camping excursions, hold camel races, etc.

[Bigg Red]

“Super Ball”?

Uh-huh, backward and foolish camel jockey.

[windsorknot]

Dear Imam,
Have a Coke and a smile and.....well, you know.

[Tublecane]

The neologism “racism” is problematic enough. But the idea that racial stereotypes, even making fun of certain people through these stereotypes—though it’s unclear to me whether that’s happened—are inherently racist is silly. I suppose they prefer a world where commercials are peopled by amorphous blobs with no discernable characteristics.

[VeniVidiVici]

Now having watched the commercial how do they know the guy is even an Arab? Looks Mexican to me. A Mexican who found a camel while crossing the border and ran into some cowboys and Vegas show girls.
