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.

Well, Gillette has lost my business and it's nothing to do with my political leanings, as you yourself know I tend toward the left (though not quite as far left as yourself, lol)

Their campaign was offensive to ANY decent man watching it and it was filled with generalisations, inaccuracies, and a misunderstanding of the nature of men.

@Quizzical Its designed to be controversial to annoy people. The vid is interesting btw.

@Burnley123 I think that Gillette went a step too far this time though and it might very well bite them in the ass. Hell, I don't think they even showed the image of a razor in this so called advertisement.

@Quizzical I dunno about you calling me far-left man. LOL

@Burnley123 You're further left than than I am, but not so far left that you are a virtue signalling SJW...

You're about as far as you can go and still be an okay dude, lol 😆
