In the way back Days, God... Maybe we could get Professor Peabody to set the machine for the way back days and discuss this in depth?

Flub up - post 19 was supposed to go onto another thread. I asked the Mod to delete it.

Lets get real about this, OK?
The actual objection is the all-white team, and everybody knows it!
To: GretchenM
It was not necessary to "read your mind." You posted your understanding right out there for everybody to see.

It is just a symptom of our WAR IS PEACE society that a TV show separating people just as they likely separate themselves in the real world is derided as being racist. Continually showing a fictional racial/ethnic polymorph population in even the most asbsurd situations is one of the ways the politically correct intelligentia keep the masses believing distorted reality. Or at least prevent them from comfortably embracing certain conclusions they might otherwise reach.

"Not wishing to associate with a series that is scraping the bottom of the barrel by consciously pitting whites against blacks is a pretty smart move, it seems to me."
The Democrat Party has been doing that for more than a generation.

I applaud GM for walking away from the most racists show on TV. LOL ........ it's a great idea.
I never watch these kind of shows, but this show is far from racist.
To notice differences is not racist......... it's real life.

Don't worry. M&M will replace them as a sponsor. They'll even come out with a new special survivor M&M bag: white, black, brown and yellow. Just imagine the commercial fun they can have!

I'm sick and tired of big corporations feeling the need to tread lightly around liberals. Just flat out say "It's out-friggen-racist!"
Liberals don't give a rat's rear end about stepping on everyone's toes.

CBS would like you to believe they are trying to be political incorrect to get you to watch. Betting that CBS will scrap political correctness would be like betting a dog will not turn around to smell its own fresh poop. The outcome of this show is as predictable as a sunrise.
The big question is when will Muleteam1, who has kept the alphabet channels out of his house for the past 22 years, watch Survivors to see if he is right? It would be my greatest hope that GM and CBS would both hold their breath and see.
