Antidote to what? That Pepsi Commercial was literally not offensive in the least. God people are idiots.

Everything has to be tainted with political bullshit nowadays. It's a disease.

I think it was pretty offensive to cops. Just reinforces the negative stereotype that sugary foods and drinks makes them perform worse at their jobs.

a 1984 reference directly about Government isn't political, but an ad where they try to make a Trans hater not hate Trans people is?

Vipa and Thanks with the historical context. I'm glad someone did the homework.

Politics is literally inescapable, the current climate is just another opportunistic attempt to exploit your feelings on the current political climate for your money.

I actually kinda liked it. Have a civil discussion. Don't just throw a temper tantrum because someone has a different point of view.

To be honest, after how the Pepsi attempt went, I'd be super careful about doing anything that even seemed to visually or tonally reference that mess.

Yes but the commercial was referencing the book because of the date. It wasn't saying shit politically beyond "Our shit is cool."

If the guy on the screen was Ronald Reagan you'd have a point but it was just taking the piss out of IBM

eh, it was better than the Pepsi commercial

it's good that it showed the people with bad points of view changing their mind

it still feels like peak Liberalism - taking advantage of legitimate social justice issues to promote a brand

A lot of people were saying this in the comments. I don't get it.

It didn't show anyone change their mind they just talked over a beer. That was the entire point.

The actor didn't go "You're so right, climate change is real!"

That 1984 commercial had nothing to do with politics. The novel did, but the commercial was just saying that '84 wasn't going to be drab and mundane.
