Get a life.
So, you think it’s an appropriate ad?

We need to start using CrackerTax or HonkeyTax.
Crackers and Honkeys pay the most taxes anyway.
Oh good grief! It’s bad enough that the Left sees racism everywhere they look, but et tu, lonewacko_dot_com?
That’s called a spit-take. Look it up.
I was born with all white genes. I don’t breathe heavy, get nervous, get red in the face when people call me Gringo, Cracker, S.O.B or any other words. I just don’t take offense. Works well with me.
I was going to basically say what you said. You said it earlier and better.
No, this is not a racist ad. (Unlike most liberals, I do not see racism everywhere.) It is, however, a disgusting and repulsive ad.
The person who approved of this ad should be fired. Not for racism, but for stupidity.
Stupid? Yeah.
Racist? That’s a reach.
I don’t really care what someone else thinks of me, so my usual response is something like “ WTF is wrong with YOU?”
Some people get offended; that’s their problem. Some people don’t.
It’s a lousy ad ... in that no one gets the humor of a ‘’spit takes’’ anymore. This was standard slap stick humor from the 30s - 50s.
Did someone have a hidden agenda with the races ... ???
If white on white, it would still be a lousy ad.
And if no big deal, why not have a white guy spew his drink over a black guy.
I can’t even see that as an option.
It is another example of spitting on white males. . .and in this case a weak, fat white guy.
Use their own wokeness against them.
Ditto. Like watching people chew with their mouths open, like my two cousins.
Can I haz “Honkey! Honkey!” Tax?
It looks like folks “on the right” have now caught the leftist Karen disease.
People who go out looking for offense will find it.
I don’t know. It’s just a poor attempt at humor. It would work better if the black guy didn’t turn his head while doing spit-takes. It comes across that he’s aiming at the white guy. Why not have them facing each other and have them both do spit-takes?
I don’t watch TV, too many stupid ads.
Sounds like this is another one.
It's a bit excessive. Repeating it starts to normalize it.
The spit-take is a lonnnnnnnng-running comedy tradition.
But since the Left has nearly outlawed comedy, I can see where you would be confused about it.
