Nike and Gillette had marketing campaigns,,,

... based on annoying right-wing people into ineffective internet rage which ironically helps sell their products. They want you to re-tweet that pic of burning shoes because [i]that[/i] is actually the advertising. Nike's value went up by 6 billion because of their Colin Kaepernick ad but most of the value has been added by the controversy.

No one ever accused conservatives of being intelligent.

@daisymay It's not just conservatives annoyed by this. It's been people across the political spectrum.

@Quizzical Yeah it's about get a reaction, then a counter-reaction to the counter-reaction and so on.

@Quizzical The OP specifically mentioned "right-wing people" and I'm pretty sure it was the MAGAt crowd comprising a supermajority of the butthurt whiners in both cases.

@daisymay Well, you'd be totally wrong about that. There were men, women, people of all age, colours and political persuasions who found the Gillette ad offensive to ALL men.

It was rather heartening actually to see people reacting to such hateful Feminist bullshit.
