but hbomb, how can i possibly be empowered as a woman if i don't buy $70 athletic leggings?
Don't forget the ~all-important~ male attention
1. buy their product 2. ??? 3. profit
With that attitude you'll never be empowered.
By buying $70+ bras if you're any size around or above average :P
Buy them for the empowerment; burn them for the emancipation. Repeat as required.

The fact that Keurig saying sexual harrassment is bad triggered a massive hate campaign is saddening. Basic human decency is controversial now.
Keurig was tame compared to Gillete. It's not the message that bothered people -- it's the perceived arrogant, patronizing, and condescending tone they took; a public emasculation -- figuratively and literally. I think had the commercial not taken the route of "shame! shame! shame!" when it comes to the male gender and instead had more of a message of "what separates boys from men is..." and display how real men act or should act in a flattering way then it would've been perceived better. Sure some would still throw a fit but it would be easier to ignore and less likely to reach. It's all about optics and it's unfortunate that to get a message across you have to chastise and arguably humiliate a group of people, valid or otherwise. It's not about "they can stand to be brought down a peg," because at that point it's just revenge, it's about closing the loop in the never-ending cycle of attack and response. Because as soon as one side picks a fight, then the other goes on the defensive and begins looking for ways to attack, discredit, or bring down the opposition and suddenly we find ourselves in an impasse where neither side wishes to acquiesce or apologize for fear of being perceived weak or their entire cause invalid (even if some aspects are moronic).
That’s modern conservatism for you. The “Christian” crowd getting upset at ideals like respect, and basic decency.
@@moviebad109hey now. That's a little reductive considering some of those ideas come straight from the Bible.
@@highjumpstudios2384 They are in the bible, not from it. Writing down what you consider decent behavior in the book that is to be used to form society around just makes sense. Morality proceeds Christ because humans do. edit: just realized I wrote nothing of importance to the discussion. What I meant is don't defend christian people by saying they are the discoverers of morality, they are not. And even if Christians upheld the ideals of the bible all of them would be communist!

OK so not only did the same thing happen again with Bud Light and Barbie, but also the account who took a picture of the razor in their toilet is Andrew Tate before his big blowing up. Harry was truly ahead of his time. He also predicted he would go bald.
Oh my god we found his back story
You sure that's Andrew Tate ?
@@nineinchthreadOK so Andy Tate used to do these dumbass tweets about star wars saying if you’ve ever seen the movies you would never be a millionaire or know what a woman feels like and so on. He also has a get rich coarse he calls the warroom so when i saw this i assumed it was him but i cant remember if i found any evidence. I think i remember i found something that confirmed my suspicion when i first commented this but i really cant remember now. So maybe no.
Honestly looking at the reflection I don't think it's him: the person has appreciable hair from what I can tell. Unless Tate for some reason wore a wig, I don't think there's any way that could've been him (not that him doing that is implausible).

@@izzynobre I'm still not sure it isn't parody. Supposedly, the guy is using a Busch brewery.

"Companies don't have values, companies have marketing strategies" I don't know where I heard it originally but it's a phrase that has stuck with me and I'm always fond of repeating it. And Ironically I actually use a Schik Hydro but I'd never seen that "Hydrobot" before, now I'm afraid.

Don’t worry. It’ll stay wet for a long time. (I’ll see myself out.)

Okay, that's a good quote and all, but since you use Schik, could you explain to me what "freeing your skin" means? If it turns you into some freak of nature, count me in!

The guy burning his five pairs of Nikes is accidentally telling everyone how spoiled he is. He has five pairs of Nikes. He has four more pairs of overpriced athletic/mobility shoes than he needs, and one of those pairs had just been purchased a few days prior.
You only need two shoes. Your left shoe, and yor right shoe.
In reality though it is useful to have more than one pair of shoes. I personally have a pair of high heels, a pair of crocs, a pair of boots, a pair of winter crocs, a pair of winter boots, and a pair of Walmart crocs that lost their back strap and are now slippers.
But, like, the point still stands. You don't need to buy four of the same brand of shoes when they all work fine.

Freeing my skin is the opposite of what I want my razor to do. In fact leaving my skin on my face is one of the main features I look for in a razor.
Imagine an ad for animal shaving/grooming products "free your fur!"
@@Erich21 That would actually make more sense. Since grooming and taking away their fur is the main purpose of the product. However, "free your skin" is just fucking terrifying. It should have said something like "free your hair". But even that is pretty weird.
It should have said something like "LIBERTY TO THE EPIDERMIS!"
I think it was supposed to be something like, after shaving your skin is no longer covered in hair, so it is more in the open, more free.
"Escape your hair-prison."
That dude who bought his shoes 3 days prior could've just... returned them for a refund
That would make too much sense...and not enough noise (like all these weirdos want to do, because thinking is too much).
Would've actually done something for their cause, but they'd rather show off than do something meaningful
So nice to hear Tommy Tallarico's music getting used again. His mother must be so proud.

My favorite WOKE one are the one that said they are for the environmental despite being a company that harming the environment.
Have I got a video series or you! Look up Adversaries by Peter Coffin, he's been making fun of this shit for years!
I dubno why folks think it's new, cinema has been doing this for decades. What do you think Green Book is? Or Bohemian Rhapsody? "Gosh, I'm so glad *we* more enlightened about homophobia and AIDS today. That'll be 17.99 for your ticket." I wouldn't say that that's the entire purpose of most of these films but that's what they're doing in the press junkets. Oscar campaigns too. Look at Dallas Buyers Club. Managed to insult every letter of the LGBT community big time. Implied lesbian conversion, a real bisexual man's history was erased to turn him into a homophobe, a real-ish (it's complicated) cis gay man was turned into a trans woman on the basis that he did drag, and that same character had nothing changed about them except for a more cliche backstory than you'd find in Dog Day Afternoon, and played by a cis man which has all sorts of nasty implications. They sold it as a progressive film though so guess what happened? Best Picture Nomination, Best Supporting Actor Nomination, etc. Jared Leto won the latter for a frankly mediocre performance because it was *so brave* for him to play a marginalized character that he literally personally wrote on the fly. That's what #TheForceIsFemale is. Do they have a point? Of course! You can type "best directors" into google and it'll give you a list of fifty directors in the sliding bar at the top, every single one of them a man. Something's up. Is buying a Star Wars brand t-shirt that was made with sweatshop labour for $18 going to change anything? Hell no. It's just the shameless appropriation of real values and issues to advertise a movie series and make a buck at the same time. The flipside do it just as much if not more. When I say "christian cinema" you know exactly I'm talking about because it's probably the best example of this phenomenon. Movies that 99% of the time are plainly mediocre if not outright bad films being sold as religious praxis. That's how Passion of the Christ became the most profitable R-rated film ever. It's a mediocre film, not even Mel Gibson's best christian cinema film (that'd be Hacksaw Ridge) but people ate it up because i was sold as the christian thing to do. Cinema's been doing this for decades. I'd argue that films going back as far back as the 80s. Theatre too - RENT is a great example. The Producers borderline parodied this phenomenon as it exists in theatre. It was only a matter of time before the companies that make french fries and lightbulbs started joining in.

First time seeing my name spelled like that, but the thing is Austyn, the whole beer debacle is based on a product that isnt an item to wear or use to create something. It's a product that is basing its success and financial profitability on the fact that people consume it. Base that on the entirety of the companies main consumer market being ostracized by its PR/Advertising and then you have an issue. Plus it is actually working. Both companies posted an average in declining sales around the 10% mark (to date not gonna claim anything for the future) and both companies have laid off a big amount of the marketing/advertising executives. Overall pretty successful in my opinion.
This video says that these boycotts don't work, but the bud light boycott did work, they took a huge hit. And people were right to protest over their stupidity.
Honestly, my favourite part of the Gillette "Short Film" thing was that Gillette made a commercial that basically said, "Men, we can do better," and a whole bunch of men stood up and screamed, "NO THE F*CK WE CAN'T!"
You must have been one of the abusive assholes represented in the commercial who needed to do better. Also, grilling is evil now.
"No we can't and fuck you for implying we need to!"
@@RainaThrownAway y’all really are going out of your way to not understand why customers react negatively to being called abusive sexist assholes. Also what was that thing with the endless grills and dads with folded arms chanting “boys will be boys” wtf is wrong with grilling?
Definitely read that to the tune of "Can we build it?" "Yes we can!"
@@goblinslayer7096 With the assumption that you want an honest discussion about this, here is my take: I understand why customers would react negatively to being called abusive sexist assholes, but I counter that the company isn't doing that. Rather, the company is calling these *behaviours* sexist and abusive. It may be a small difference, but it is an important one. Namely, that calling *you* a thing implies that it is an indelible part of you which you cannot escape, while calling a *behaviour* a thing equally implies that you can distance yourself from it and improve. In the same way that you must acknowledge a problem before you can fix it, these commercials are calling *out* a problem, not calling *you* a problem ("you" being used here not to directly implicate the person reading this, but simply as a generic second person). As for what's wrong with grilling: nothing is wrong with grilling. What is wrong is the legions of men just shrugging their shoulders and letting unchecked violence happen rather than trying to encourage more peaceful conflict resolutions.

@@claire156 Sounds like you were just duped. I'd used Gillette products for years but after their woke ad, I used up the remaining blades I had, then threw the handle away and bought a different one. Haven't bought a Gillette product since.
I did a master's in marketing but I a bachelor's in psychology first and it really was eye-opening. It was essentially just how soulless corporations manipulate people. The final nail in the coffin for me was when we learned about Coca-Cola's Hello Happiness campaign that took advantage of migrant workers in the UAE to show how they cared about people but it was such obvious virtue signalling.
Imagine thinking a corporation will be emotionally hurt that you destroyed their product after you've already bought it.
Chaz McGutter and then it gets them more money
They were only three days old, he could've literally gotten a refund and *actually* cost them money.
"Corporations are people, my friend."
what's worse is that if you go far enough up the corporation food chain, everything is controlled by like, what, 10 total mega corporations? choice is basically an illusion in most cases, unless you're buying from a small independent company or local business. so even if you destroy your product of one brand and actually commit to buying only from another brand, your money is very likely to find its way into the same pockets no matter what. literally, one of the greater tools of marketing is to pit two brands against each other while ultimately controlling both. I think the "left twix vs. right twix" is probably just an extremely meta joke to other advertisers because it so blatantly lampoons the concept. I'm actually a little surprised that they'd show their hand so obviously.

additionally also absolutely crazy that so many women's razor ads are selling razors, but they know its not feminist to say women have to shave, so they also use this "YOU DONT NEED TO SHAVE GIRLBOSS! (buy our razor)" tactic. It's really eerie and strange, and makes something as un-radical as not shaving your natural body hair into an activist point to be sold
They want people to talk about shaving.
Also, discounting political discourse, that feels like a pretty counterproductive slogan to use in your advertisements given they're advertising razors. It'd be like advertising cigarettes by saying, "You wanna get lung cancer?" I think it's supposed to be an ironic slogan, but even then it just seems like an odd marketing strategy when your slogan is directly contradicting the need for the very product you're trying to sell.
@@noahvance6160 Even more ironic is the fact that cigarette companies actually do fund anti-smoking PSAs. The human psyche is deeply irrational and advertisers know it.

Burning your own shoes is the sort of thing people do when they want to imitate that kind of protest but just think "massive destruction = drama".
The boycott segment actually helped me process something that's always confused me. I don't feel like this iteration of right wing protest understood the concept of a boycott. Which... actually might explain when a lot of the same circles bafflingly complain that left wing people are too triggerhappy about boycotting things and instead should express themselves in a free market by just not buying from those companies. ...Which is what a boycott primarily refers to in consumer contexts. Destroying your own property on video IS certainly a form of protest, and sometimes effective at spreading the word, but is not integral or even relevant to the strategic concept that boycotts are meant to employ. Even in other contexts, if you boycott the Olympics you don't disband the agency responsible for your national team. if you boycott a negotiation you don't inherently withdraw from previous treaties and fire your interpreters. you refuse to accept an Oscar, not melt down any that you've previously won ...If that's what a lot of these people think a boycott is, I can ignore any hypocrisy to fully agree with them that left wing activists should eschew that tactic and focus on new purchases instead

If you own some new Nikes, and you want to hurt the Nike business, you *sell* them at below market rate to people who would otherwise buy them from the company. If they flooded the market with cheap Nike shoes as a protest, they could have actually hurt sales and made some people worried for a few weeks. The last thing you want to do is destroy them and raise the scarcity, raise the demand, and have Nike laughing all the way to the bank since they're the only source of Nike shoes left.
these people only know violence and tantrums as a response to anything challenging.
Economics is so fun.
I just had to laugh at your comment. When people destroy Nike shoes, it's NOT that there is a scarcity for Nike shoes, or there is a rise in demand; it's just that the size of the Nike shoes market is smaller (by a tiny amount). People who destroy the shoes are most likely ordinary users; not re-sellers. And them re-sellers won't even think of destroying their only way of making a living. The first part is good though, although it will only happen on a small scale; their reselling Nike shoes at a lower price won't affect much Nike's revenues. So again, the buyers (buying from those discounted shoes) get all the benefits; and Nike isn't even affected.
The most harmful thing they could've done is give their nikes to homeless people, imo. That wouldn't directly affect the demand, but it would create a negative association with people who wear nikes and hurt the brand image.
Music Account But, you see, that requires not treating homeless people like garbage.
The recent bud light drama right now is basically proving this video's point. It will never end...
At a certain point you have to ask yourself "which side should ease the breaks: the ones making the admittedly condescending commercials or the ones responding with shameless fervor?" Because on one hand the ones overreacting get angry for reasons they might not be able to articulate, but on the the other if the former made their ad disengenuois in their messaging therefore provoking the kind of people that would obviously take offense to it (which would of course made them loopback and further propagate the perception of "anyone who disagrees are any variation of -ist or -phobe") then the backlash wouldn't exist in the first place. I argue it's the secret third option: the ad companies that deliberately instigate both sides against one another to maximize profits.
@@TheMeditorEditorPeople only find the commercials condescending because they don’t like what it tells them. The Gillette ad didn’t say “All men are sexual predators and you should feel bad”, it just said, “Hey, let’s avoid making misogyny a part of masculinity.” And if you find yourself so incensed over the idea of just respecting other people that you need to burn your product for retribution, you’ve got issues. It’s not a conspiracy, it’s reactionary.
@@tanookisam4911 Though it is undeniable the ones who reacted negatively to the ads are not admirable in general, I'd still say the ones in the wrong are the companies. You see... the companies did not act in good faith. Maybe Keurig did, but the ones that followed in Keurig's footsteps sure didn't. They're deliberately annoying and condescending to people as to make them mad so they may generate free publicity. It is an abuse of labor AND a deliberate exacerbation of the current trend toward polarization and political tribalism. All in the service of a line on a graph. Could you imagine if a company did that with some other topic? If a company deliberately leveraged the rivalry between football teams as to make the rivalry less amicable? Or if they deliberately stirred animosity against cats as to trigger cat lovers? Dialogue between the left and the right isn't amicable as it is, the last thing we need is brands jumping in for profit.
@@tanookisam4911 Imagine an ad criticizing black people committing crimes. I'm sure the reaction by reasonable people like you will be "oh they're not talking about all black people, just the toxic blackness that leads to increase in crime rates". Surely, if anyone finds themselves incensed at the idea of not committing crimes, they're the ones with issues.
@@tanookisam4911 The problem with the Gillette ad is that it was suggesting that being a sexual predator was somehow related to the general theme of masculinity or being a man. No one ever tried to make sexual assault a part of masculinity in the first place. Every man in the Western world knows r*pe is wrong. In short, it was a completely needless and pointless virtue signal, tantamount to Gillette standing on a soap box and shouting "Hey! sexual assault is bad! Look at how virtuous we are! We're calling the bad thing bad!". It was absolutely accusatory and condescending, and if you can't see that, you're part of the problem.

Remember when a conservative dude had a total meltdown over Starbucks Christmas cups being red and told his audience to protest Starbucks by BUYING A COFFEE and saying their name was “Merry Christmas” so that the overworked baristas had to write it on the cups? That’s a corporation’s dream right there.

@Laurel Vincett Nah, I remember him. He was infamous in atheist circles for being an evangelical Christian who was vocal about far right bullshit like calling homosexuality sinful and saying women should know their place. His video over the Starbucks cups was the typical “War on Christmas” victim complex narrative.
I don't know why you bring up the idea of "overworked baristas" writing "Merry Christmas", like it's that hard to write 2 words. I doubt they'd care. They would roll their eyes and briskly write "Mevy Crristmas"

Interesting parallel: earlier this year, during the George Floyd protests, a skate company called Mota came out *against* the protesters. The roller derby community were disgusted; famous skaters unanimously cut sponsorship ties, and skaters who had Mota boots removed or otherwise covered the logo. No-one gave them airtime. No-one publicly burned their skates. Those who dropped them as sponsors said why, but spent most of their energy in promoting Black Lives Matter. Mota's biggest customer base was roller derby, which is a pretty tight community, so word travelled fast, and it seems like they've lost a lot of their core sales base (they're now appealing to "patriots" and the Blue Lives Matter crowd, finding them in different skating disciplines). Woke brands sure are about getting that money, but boycotting - when done right - can work.

Amazing how this video happened 4 years ago and we are still watching conservatives mald over a trans woman being sponsored by piss-tasting beer.
What, you expect them to change in 4 years? They are anti-progression, evolution and progress is a disease to them 😂
I saw this was posted a couple weeks ago and wondered how accurate it was, but from all the things I've seen, Bud Light left Dylan Mulvaney out on a ledge to be ridiculed (pissing off the LGBT community), introduced uncomfortable ideas to their conservative community (rebranding themselves as a "gay beer" and pissing off a relatively small portion of their customers by volume iirc, a lot of them really don't mind woke culture), watched their numbers tank by about 2 BILLION dollars (with a B), and tried to reverse hard in the other direction. Last I heard from them they were going straight MAGA, partnering with the UFC to become the most /pol/itically incorrect beer. Anheuser-Busch is the case study of when something like this doesn't work; probably because even if they marketed to those kinds of politically correct communities they wouldn't immediately start buying their shitty product it's all marketing, they never actually supported anything, and IMMEDIATELY revert course the second they felt a sting in their profits lol
@@Punsmaster2 yeah see the real smart move from Busch would have been going all in on getting old Bud Light customers to pivot to the Good Ol' Boy's beer, Natty Light.

The most ironic thing about the "burn my Nikes" trend was that the actual way to hurt Nike would be to donate the shoes to charity. Like, make sure that they're not being resold to thrifty but upmarket consumers, try to make sure they are being worn by poor people. Once Nike has your money, the only way you can actually hurt them is to try and devalue their brand. And despite any posturing from their PR outfit, Nike definitely wants people to think that their shoes are expensive, not shoes of the poors. I'm not sure whether this just never occurred to the "burn them" camp or if they are allergic to giving anything to the poor, as that would be some kind of handout.
Once a product is brought it becomes a liability to the business all the while the consumer has it and a want for it.

I think it's fine to like these commercials that espouse progressive values, but not because it means the companies are awesome and progressive. Moreso because it shows that society is becoming more progressive, and companies want to pander to that (and, of course, get a little extra juice from right-wing backlash). Ads (that espouse values) are a reflection of society, because companies want to be in tune with their potential customers, so more progressive ads indicate a more progressive mainstream.

Hey, friend 👋 I know this was a comment from months ago, but I wanted to make a quick note as I scroll by. As an LGBT person, I just wanna mention that the "Q+" or "QIA+" at the end are not actually more inclusive, but simply redundant. There's no harm in the Q+, however, it is only necessary to include the Q for events or groups where it can mean "questioning" thus not outing an individual by them going to it. Same applies to adding the letter A for Ally. "I" refers to intersex, which can be reductionary to their own experiences, as that group is not inherently part of the LGBT community, and only are if they are trans (aka they do not identify as the gender applied to them at birth)(not that you used an I anyhow). Ultimately, all groups that should be under the acronym are subgroups of those four listed in the original acronym.
