Diversity in TV advertising

[Shootist]

Just been watching Amazon's latest effort where girl does her Christmas shopping early. Cut to Christmas Day and the whole family is there, all black (or whatever the current politically correct term is) except for one person, a white blond haired female dwarf. Presumably a guest. Either a chronically stupid piece of advertising or one of the most subtle piss takes I have ever seen.

FFS!

I haven't seen this advert because I no longer watch live TV and have cancelled my TV license - however, regardless of the ethnic mixture of people at the tabIe, think that I would find a piss steak a little bit unappetising!

Piss steaks suitably amended. Too salty, I would imagine but then I have a taste for pigs kidneys.

I too don't possess a television and just love it when the bully license people come to my door , I absolutely hate the BBC and would not want them to have a penny of my money , all the bully mail i receive from them is placed in a white envelope and posted back to them without a stamp

I have two televisions. Whether they are installed for receiving broadcasts isa matter for me to know and them to find out, or not, as the case may be. I have lived at my current address for 15+ years and in that time I have had only 4 visits from so called 'inspectors'. A couple of times I just told them to bugger off as I wasn't in the mood to play. The other two I had a bit of fun with first, before telling them to bugger off. I think they still come from time to time but they post their latest threatening letters and run before I can get to the door. I don't even get the Witnesses or the Mormons knocking.

BUT... A blonde, female, dwarf in a BAME household who gets the text overprint because when she stands up at the end she can't be seen FFS?

A red head would get my attention otherwise I only look for sex and machine gun movies with no advertisements on Amazon or Netflix.

I've got a 60" TV and I leave my blinds open at night on the rare occasions I turn it on to watch recordings or Youtube and I'm relishing my next visit from the TV-twats. Something else I was looking forward to is removing my TV aerial - I don't know what bird it is that perches on it but it shits all over my doorstep - however, I had the idea of putting some sort of plastic bird up there full of cow slurry which will void itself on the TV-twat at the press of a remote control.

Thank you for the tip about returning TV licencing mail in an unstamped envelope!

Yeah, that would be SidebySide taking out your doorstep

I have seen said advert and concur with your comments.
From the TV in this country it would now appear that Caucasians are in the minority! If this is so why do we keep hearing about supporting the minorities yet the Caucasians receive nothing!
The Country is going to the dogs!
I can't imagine the country that my grandchildren will inherit but Im glad that I won't be there to see it

Final moan before I shut up - Why is it that after I listen to a speech by the Prime Minister or such like that the BBC feel the need to have a political editor repeat what he said several times and feel the need to interpret hi words?
I am neither deaf nor stupid so not necessary!

It’s because most people refuse to believe the bullsh1t and borrocks the first time they hear it

Come on guys, they are advertising Early Black Friday Deals.

Faux Pas, anyone?

Sick to death of hearing the word diversity.

Why do the adverts on TV insist on mixed race couples as if it is the norm? it's not and the loony left should get over it.

My thoughts entirely

[Shootist]

Much as I hate conspiracy theories, the more I ponder these adverts the more I come to the conclusion that there is too much to attribute to coincidence or quiet agreement. It is just too organised.

Alas, nothing happens by accident in politics or the media, print or electronic.
