The Foundry’s Anti-discrimination Ad - Gruen Transfer

[Sloth]

http://www.antiprejudicead.net/

A TV Show in Australia that talks about advertising, one of the sections asks two advertising agencies two make an ad on the same brief - most of the time quite comical.

However this week the brief was to attempt to curb shape discrimination, and the ad of one agency is rather confronting but poses a good idea.

Worth watching - would be interested to see other people's thoughts.

This the one the ABC doesn't want to air?

Yer - the ad is only a few minutes, the forum on the topic afterwards goes for much long

My slow arse internet took a while to buffer the whole thing. I jumped on to watch it as it was mentioned on the show. Interesting discussion.

Well, I laughed at the jokes they said in the video. I'm a baaaaaaaad man.

I also laughed at the jokes.

However, I've got a black neighbour and there is a chinese guy in my lectures. So I'm evidently not racist.

 

[Farrowlesparrow]

I've known an Indian man for 30 years, so I'm not racist.

Look at these ****ers act like they're all offended. Nothing I can't stand more than someone who acts like a goddamn moral authority. THIS WAY IF BLACK PEOPLE SEE ME ON TV THEY'LL THINK I GET IT. I'M AWESOME.

 

[Farrowlesparrow]

I'm still feeling INTENSELY SHOCKED by those jokes.

I'm just ever so disheveled I can't even come about my wits to cram more politically correct rubbish down your ****ish throats.
