Ford does a very strange pro gay commercial

I just hate all fucking advertising now, which I guess is actually a good thing; ads aren't exactly created with the consumer's benefit in mind. I literally just got a Bud Light ad where it's a woman picking up five glasses of beer at once and walking off with it passing a guy who is using a tray for four who then looks down sadly at his humiliation at the hands of this much cooler woman who is then, no joke, applauded.
I don't remember the last ad I've seen that doesn't make me hate the brand more. It's just fucking constant. I think there's more gay couples than straight couples in commercials; how many interracial lesbian couples can there really be? The only time it's a straight white couple the wife is humiliating the husband (hey, jake from state farm, my husband still consults his mom on decisions) I watch programming related videos a lot and I'll get ads for some new software as a service product and it will always be a black woman using it.
Clothing and fitness ads always have land whale models, and not just fat, not just obese, they are always so fat that they have a front butt. How does someone get so fat they grow a butt on their front?
I always wanted to make a fate person exercise clothing line and have the slogan be “(company name) where the clothes are always working harder than you!”
Jokes aside, anyone that tried that would go out of business. Fat clothes are expensive merely by the amount of material used, and you also have to stock varying sizes of fat on top.
Like the new Adidas Women's Swimwear range being modelled by men. Fucking absurd
European men have been modeling women's swimwear for ages.
I forgot the beer but it had an ad where lots of women and I think one or 2 black guys. At the end of the add it mentioned something incredibly cringe like the beer is also for men. It was recently but I just can't remember the beer brand.
While I'm certainly not going to put money on it, I'd wager that inter racial lesbian couples are much more common than in normal people.
Due to the fact that the sexual market value of most lesbians is effectively zero anyway regardless of race. Theirs isn't even a sexual orientation in all but the most vague of terms anyway, rather a shared misandry.
What is this even suppose to convey? Other then me never buying a ford car again.
I would never buy ford even before now. Crap cars since the early 90s when Detroit was collapsing on its own stupidity. I would never buy a Nissan after they picked rabid feminist Allison Brie. GM, Chrysler, Chevy can all kick rocks too. The only cars I consider anymore for quality is Toyota, Mitsubishi, Kia, and Honda. They also happen to have the most manufacturing in the USA, funny how that works out.
Brie Larson. But yeah, I'm sure there was some executives that wanted to nix the idea but didn't want to be called a misogynist for saying that Larson has all the charisma of a wet napkin.
Careful with the Kia's.....
I think they're better now that they are just stripped down Hyundais.
They're theft target #1 right now due to Kia refusing to install ignition protections in any form whatsoever.
Most Kias on the road today can be started with a screwdriver and a USB drive.
Oh yeah, the Kia boyz. I was only thinking about reliability. It's been fixed for a couple model years though, so at least only used Kias have that problem.
What about Hyundai?
You can buy a BMW basically manufactured in the USA, too.
Piety for the new religion.
I mean if you're truly a patriotic American and you need a pick up truck, why aren't you buying a Toyota?
Why a Toyota, just ask Chad....
Patriots are buying Hiluxes.
I only wish Toyota made a large-displacement diesel engine for the US market. Their JP-only diesel truck engines are built like tanks (but lack horsepower). Something like a V-8 version of the H07DT with some horses (or, hell, do what GM used to do and put two of their 4.0 liter I-4s together and make a 8L V-8).
Edit, or make a V-8 F33A version.
I can't imagine buying a truck with out a large displacement diesel engine. It's one of the upshots of having one.
Don't get me wrong, I love my tacoma, but it is very light duty and the tundra is NOT a tough truck. Once gently lowered an engine into a tundra bed, only for it to punch holes in the bed.
Makes sense, didn't they refuse to take a $12 precaution in the Pinto that caused many people to die a painful death after rear-end collisions?
I thought it was something like 7 dollars per vehicle to fix a row of bolts, but they decided the lawsuits would be cheaper. Something about how the bolts were situated caused them to tear the gas tank open. It's been a long time since I read about that.
Changes going forward to new vehicles off the production line were really inexpensive.
The issue was to fix cars that had already been finished required a recall. The factory recall was to put in a piece of polycarbonate between the bolts and the fuel tank.
The recall would require hours of work by a mechanic per car to install the additional plastic plate. Ford made some (fairly accurate) predictions as to how many fatal crashes there would be, and decided to settle every case instead.
It was cold blooded mathematics and a PR disaster when the documents were inevitably leaked.
What do you mean?
I thought the gay car was supposed to be Subaru or Volkswagen.
I think it was Subaru and Volvo that were memetically linked to lesbians. See also dogs with bandanas, extremely short hair on women and above average domestic abuse rates for other similar examples.
Well Volkswagen did make the iconically gay New Beetle.
I miss the days when Strongman wasn't full of faggots.
