I just saw a P&G commercial . I simply do not understand WHY any corporation would assert themselves into politics and social controversy like P&G has done by PANDERING to one minority group ! Misleading popular advertisements about racism accomplish more of an increase in racism rather than helping ! First of all every subset of people experience racism and unpleasant behaviors from others. I happen to be white and I have received plenty of racial overtones and problems from others in the past . Racism is present in all races and using fear based counseling as a solution is a bad idea ! This commercial was wrong on so many levels. I happen to be white and I have received plenty of racial overtones and problems from other races . Taking a measure of truth and exaggerating it will not help even if your intentions are good. If I get called a honky, gringo , cracker , etc... I am not going to form a persecution complex. Most racism is not even verbal or overtly obvious. Point is , WHY do corporations pick out favorite victim groups and start a crusade for them ? I do not think after the pandering is over it helps and more likely just increases the racial division even though I am sure some people suffer bad experiences sometimes ! After all , I have received my share of unpleasant experiences. P&G , this racial pandering will not help you increase your profits but liberal progressives will love it !
