Pain equity might get a knee to the back of the neck until pain isn’t an issue anymore, but Advil wasn’t the issue of that situation. How many stores are getting robbed because of Advil? Do the people running the marketing side of these companies not understand common sense? After the beer debacle it seemed like people would have learned.

What is pain bias?


They don’t know. It’s just a salad of buzz words thrown together for virtue signaling purposes by some DEI wing of the company.

I was watching a news broadcast a few weeks ago discussing that some older highway guardrails may not be up to modern standards. The bozo discussing it said it was his life’s mission to lobby for better guardrails to “end traffic violence”. Were the guardrails jumping out into the road and beating people over the head?

Advil cares about us, lets buy them although even if there are cheaper options that work just as good.

Oh my god, black people aren’t even allowed to buy Advil? I knew they couldn’t get IDs, and we all know math is racist against black people, but this is truly shocking.

Exactly. It just means they get to check off some boxes when it comes to getting favorable treatment.

I don think anyone really believes this stuff.

Hey white cuckboy, if you buy Advil, your head will feel better and you can alleviate some of that white guilt.

It's becoming more and more stupid every day. Sad part is some people, especially those white Karen's that actually take this message and use it as an everyday talking point.

Can Advil let the cluster migraines I’ve gotten since I was kid know that I’m white and shouldn’t be getting them?


I take the blue footballs for my headaches and pain, Aleve for the win. If I don’t have Aleve, I may also use the white powder trick with some BC powder that is a Tylenol, an aspirin, and some caffeine crushed up in a fine powder.

Advil's active ingredient ibuprofen increases blood pressure, exacerbates GERD, contributes to kidney and heart failure and pretty much every disease that blacks already have disproportionately higher rates of than others.

It's an ironic spin they bought a bullshite study to market themselves as equity soldiers, when it's much more likely that black people will be warned to avoid their product for health reasons. I hope they get roasted for it from every direction.

So why not give away their product to minorities for free to fix the problem?

So I think, like, the main thing is that health professionals think that black people are biologically different than other people, that our skin is thicker, that we have less sensitive skin and higher pain tolerance.


Wait...what? Any OT doctors want to confirm that y'all were taught this in medical school?

No. That guy is either lying or extrapolating his experience from one doctor who thought like that to most doctors thinking like that
