I don't see it, I was proposing what some other people want to see.

I think what he's saying is it's a no win situation for the advertisers. If they don't have ethnic groups represented in ads they are accused of not being inclusive. If they do use black actors in a ad like that one they are accused of saying black folk are only good for burger flipping. They can't win.it's nuts. I haven't seen the advert but if it's as described in the OP I find it staggering that anyone could see racism in it. Then they come on here having a pop at racists even tho they're the only one to have thought it..... Hhmmmmmm
Like who ? You're just presuming people see it with no evidence what so ever. Where have you seen complaints or anything ?

So you're making things up about people you have made up that may or may not have interpreted an advert in a certain way?
It's a tough follow this, but I'm committed.
Don’t man, I’m still trying to work out the Morrison’s ad with the black mam, (or is she stepmam?) with the gluten free mince pie munching white daughter/stepdaughter.

I have no idea how the first thing anyone's brain processes is that the person is black. I wouldn't even think twice about it. It's just a lass serving some bait.

positive discrimination or inclusivity in their current ad, where a black lass serves Santa.
I can't keep up, which is it?
Edit: casual racism!! Bastard phone.
What the fuck is wrong with you?

First thought was what a nice advert.
Later thoughts were, I'm pretty sure someone somewhere will imagine it's racist, and someone somewhere will imagine it's positive discrimination, while most of us (me included) wouldn't care.
Whilst I don't know these people personally, and can't vouch for their thoughts, they more than likely exist.
No, see above. I'm able to think about what other people think, without it determining my own opinion.
Nowt. What the fuck is wrong with you?

Imagine thinking op is offended.
I don't. I can imagine other people do though.
He doesn't. Other people might.
Keep up ffs

Done.
