Topic	M&M's ALL FEMALE packaging causes OUTRAGE!! Would you eat these?
GreenMario 01/10/23 11:18:55 PM #30:	viewmaster_pi posted... they're "flipping the status quo" by... selling... candy? and "supporting women" by putting their female characters on the package to... i guess entice more women to buy it for a while? uhhh good job M&Ms, you're on the right side of history... See now if everyone was just like "okay it's candy So what" that would be the end of it but these reactions are fueling it. People get all weirdly misogynistic about candy they get a lot of free publicity and a bunch of people feel compelled to buy it because alt right t morons are making fun of it and it makes it feel like fighting back when otherwise it would just be cartoon candy people. Being all weird about it being "woke" is just inspiring more of this kind of promotion because it gives it attention. So many shows starring black people are about how racism is bad because racist people keep getting mad about shows with black people in them trying to tell them not to be racist. The stupid reactions are continuing to keep the subject relevant. It's self perpetuating and so are silly candy advenrtusments. --- Mario and his best friend Green Mario were introduced in Super Mario Bros for the NES in 1982. <cite>GreenMario posted [p:970765112] in M&M's ...
