this is a video going into the 'controversy' surrounding the clip
no idea this shit was causin this much attention...it's 2013
i googled the commercial and came across several sites highlighting the response it has received by the public
What am I missing? What controversy is this video causing (break it down for me, I'm not in the mood to google it).
ur loss
in short..the comments were disabled for the original video..but that wasn't just an isolated incident that happened because of a few disgruntled posters
apparently the web is 'ablaze' regarding wide spread racism towards that singular video. multiple sites have picked up on the backlash and attempt to discuss the situation around it. that is what surprised me. the shit has gone way beyond youtube and into general public discourse

^^^^^^
This is the commercial I was talking about.

Apparently, the positive comments were overwhelmed by negative ones because they've disabled the comments section.
Thank you for the breakdown love
Seriously, people can suck a dick. I rarely read the comments because I know they're usually filled with hate. I actually did google this one though and was relieved to see so many positive remarks...people with a "wtf are people getting bent out of shape for" attitude, and recognizing that the family depicted in this commercial is real life for many of us.
so u saying theyre a real life family, didnt know that
No the people in the commercial are actually actors. What she's saying is that the commercial is depicting what is real life for those of us who actually live in an interracial family dynamic like the one shown.
love it!!!.....lol. It's the coolest!! Nothin' better than food that's good for your heart!!^^^^^^
