yeah sure its racist. i also don't give a fucking shit
If they replace the reindeer with monkeys, people would CHOOSE to be very upset, or they would recognize an OPPORTUNITY to make a big deal out of nothing. Why would you want to be whiny like the monkey people?
It's not racist
hahah! man relax! learn to take a joke! it's not meant to be offensive! chill!
Yeah my husband is Mexican and he's an immigrant and he thought it was hilarious, I mean I laugh at white people jokes, but you know the media can hate on whites and mexicans all they want but not so much on other minorities. They should be politically correct but I doubt if you complain anything will happen.
Boost Mobile racist commercial? I want to start off by saying Im a pretty relaxed guy and dont usually get worked up over things. However, I would like to point out the Boost Mobile commercial with the Santa Claus trying to cut down expenses by hiring mules (burros, jackasses, whichever you prefer). At first when I saw this commercial it didnt phase me but seeing over again, it clicked that Santa hired basically cheap labor= Mexicans. By saving money he had hired mules instead of the reindeer. The main mules name is Rudolfo instead of Rudolph (the red nosed reindeer). Im only pointing this out because of the fact that there hasn't been any uproar over this. Yes I am Latino so I probably view this differently than the majority, I hope majority of people see it as I do though. I just want to point out that if Boost Mobile portrayed monkeys as the replaced reindeer with the name of Rodney people would be extremely upset. But people don't seem to phased by this obviously racist commercial. Im sure Boost Mobile meant no harm but it is perceived as being racist. Lol it amazes me how people cannot view things from a different perspective. I think Seasons is the only one who sort of understand where Im coming from. The purpose of this post was not to try to sue the phone company just get people thinking.
