This is too funny. Article by the Independent

Ad shows a black woman taking off her dirty shirt to reveal a white woman underneath with many taking it as the subtle image that black people want to be white.

The ad is kind of funny but I'm surprised anyone in 2017 would think this would not cause the exact reaction it did.

I mean people who make commercials are supposed to think about this kind of stuff right?

If it were reversed it would be "an attempt at cultural appropriation".

When your life revolves around being a victim, you'll twist anything to fit your narrative.

Funny how those that are offended never reference the part about the white chick turning into an Asian chick.

Anytime a black person turns white it must be racist, right?

I don't know how on earth this ad ever made it out of the idea stage.
What does it mean? What does this product promise? Why do I want to buy this product?

What was Dove thinking? I'm as sick of racial politics/ polical correctness as the next guy but damn.

Seems like a nice ad.

The top chick was wearing dirty clothes.

The bottom one had clean ones on.

Some SJW is gonna have to tell me why I should be mad

If this is the biggest problem we have in our country, we're doing pretty damn well.

But it's not.

We just had a couple of hurricanes cause $250 billion in damage and a madman just caused the worst mass shooting in our nation's history. But yeah, let's get upset about a soap ad.

Yea...dumb commercial and kind of asking for unneccesary response. Makes no freaking sense and doesn't promote the product. Dumb. Outrage is dumb as well, but liberals are whinny what do you expect

Apparently you are still enamored enough with political correctness to twist the context of the commercial enough to get offended.

Keep melting. At least your imaginary friends will never leave you.
