One of the worlds leading human rights groups is upset over a new bizarre and racist donut ad airing in Thailand claiming Americans would howl with outrage if we saw it. Which we wont because Dunkin Donuts Thailand and America are separate organizations.

Just most people in America and Europe.
My favorite line as well!
SO WE ALL SHOULD BE OFFENDED BY A WHITE DONUT WITH WHIP CREME ON TOP. a##holes abound
I’m offended! I use Mighty White tooth paste.
Chocolate doughnut ad?
Hmmmm...is she, uh, coated in chocolate too?
...no, no, no...please brain...don’t go there...must resist...

The only thing worse than Black Racists hatin' on Whitey, are the Guilt-ridden whites who enable them
Thai Ping
Did you read the article you posted? Dunkin is not “caving.” The Thai franchise stands behind their ad according to what I read.
Obamaturds!! Not nice! (But very funny. Lol.)
Yikes...WAY to young for me.
