The 'racist' Aussie KFC ad

[Corky]

Not racist at all. The West Indian fans are black and that is a fact. West Indians also love chicken. They make it for every meal.

Nothing like a sweeping generalisation.

Yeah missed curry goat, jamaican jerk and Brendan Nash.

I suggest that whoever actually noticed all these people were black is actually more racist than they may think. I never saw a crowd of black people I just saw a crowd of people.

That ad is genius, "even we would buy it!!" Quality.

is this a wind-up? surely their marketing team have just made a complete disaster here..

one of KFC's biggest demographics in The USA are african-americans, or should i say "southern fried chicken" as this recipe was originally slave food with ideas eventually stolen by corporations.

This advert claims that if loads of non-whites are going crazy around you just show them a bucket of fried chicken and they'll all calm down...

Disgraceful, how would you all feel if a video shown loads of white guys all going crazy at a football match then some black guy undresses his 5yr old daughter and every white guy all sits down and perves on the little kid?
After all every white man is a peadophile right?

No, wrong! just like not every nonwhite person enjoys KFC.

WTF???

That has to be one of the worst analogies I have ever heard!

Quite bizarre. What kind of person has a thought process that would have come up with that?
