    America keeps getting butthurt and I dont get it

    What's with all the racist fingerpointing? Why yall get so defensive over bullshit commercials and comedy acts that for whatever reason have high profile celebrities and the media shitting their pants with shock?

    It ESPECIALLY shits me that it concerns a culturally based stereotype that doesn't exist in Australia so who the fuck is America to govern what we have on TV?

    Ludicrous apologies have to be made because someone derives a racist meaning out of something that wasn't racist at all to begin with so in turn doesn't that make that person a racist?

    Shits me.

I think this is all representative of awesomly large tits, no?

    For anyone who hasn't seen it, this is what she's referring to:

    YouTube - Racist KFC Advertisement? --OFFICIAL VIDEO

    It's a Australian KFC commercial.

    Oh sorry, if it doesn't happen in the U.S., I typically don't pay attention.

    This is the first i've heard about the KFC ad. Also the first time i've ever seen it. But i tend to not watch ads.
    The comments on the youtube clip are saying that its racist because they are feeding black people Fried Chicken. Is that right? is sharing chicken racist?
    I thought that maybe it could be construed as racist because they described it as 'an awkward situation' with him being the only white guy, but i think they are implying he's the only Australian Cricket Support surrounded by West INdians

    It's a common stereotype that black people love fried chicken (and watermelon).

    I try to avoid advertising as much as possible, and I also ignore most scandals, so not surprising :P

    Funny ad. I loled. Don't care if that makes me a bad person.

    I laughed because of how Australian the ad was. If you don't know that some ignorant fucks have created the 'black people love fried chicken' stereotype (as I didn't until just now), it's really not that bad.
