Wait, what?

So, if she had used a Black person in the ad, the MAGA commentators would have been happy and supportive?

If the imaginary young fellow was playing the current update to Ghost Recon Wildlands, I can completely exonerate him. Ubisoft bumped the frame rate to 60fps/4K and unlocked most of the DLC goodies for free. It was recommended some 15 years ago I take up console video games to help keep my twitchy hands from becoming full blown tardive dyskinesia. It worked, sort of.

Trust me...worth the now-minuscule $$ if you've never played it. Huckabee can suck it.

What do you think would have happened if the add had a 375-pound black woman with 6 kids watching BET?

Hilarious... LHT still living in Ronald Reagan's Black Welfare Queens driving Cadillacs fantasy world... as if that's the common real world facts, which it wasn't then, and still isn't now.

I think we should pay people who don't want to work to stay home.

Sure, it costs tax money, but I think it's a reasonable hypothesis that idiots and --------- people cost the economy more.

Plus the headache of expecting a service out of these people, or even worse, working with them.

Must have hit a bit too close to home for the "far-right commentators." Must be afraid they'll have to get off their asses and work.

No, I'm living in a politically correct world where if the ad was as I described, you'd have gotten the vapors and had to be rushed to the hospital. The DNC would have based their entire run this cycle, on "bUh tHeY'rE rAsIs".
