bajrang Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 dammit ppl, chinese, indian and brazilian, these are the three guys. indian guy is wearing nihang sikh dress, brazilian guy is doing capoeira. the lack of general knowledge is appalling in this thread. fark!! even in one link they mistook it for kalripayittu, its gatka done by nihang sikh.
Stuge Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 I never quite understood this line of arguement. People do not apply fairness cream to change their race. So how exactly is it racist? Its loosely said that way . of course it won't change ones race .
Clarke Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 What i seemed to understand is they need mutant powers (madrox/multiple man) to compete, which is flattering :P Can't believe 2 things here: - Black brown & yellow going against white with multiple of the latter (and no one else) enforcing peace, what a coincidence. You don't have to be so politically correct to close your eyes and say its not r@c!$t. - The second one's clearly Indian, can't you see the yogic powers with which he flies at speed :--D
Clarke Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 Looks like they have withdrawn it and apologized http://storyful.com/stories/21871 Holy effin what, i thought it was an ad by some right wing closet group. THIS was official :yikes:

akshayxyz Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 video already went viral. And that is what latest tactic is ... make something controversial.. apologize and withdraw, while the content takes its own life-form on internet world.
jairamesh Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 Surely racist, and if they were highlighting economic unity to fight the rising BRIC then only three were represented, Brazil, India, and China. Where was Russia? Hopelessly racist to slowdown the current disunity happening within the EU, i.e. the Mediterranean nations vs the Northern nations.
Zelch Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 It is borderline... :haha: whites vs the rest kind of a theme... Arabs,Chinese and Blacks.. Smartly done though.. Sir jee, this ad is Europe vs BRIC (Minus Russia). So we see a Brazilian Guy, Indian Guy, Chinese Guy
hari504504 Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 Sir jee' date=' this ad is Europe vs [b']BRIC (Minus Russia). So we see a Brazilian Guy, Indian Guy, Chinese Guy ah, nice catch !
yoda Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 Even if it's a BRIC vs EU, it's still racist, cause EU isn't just whites. Anyways, racism comes in all flavors, this is one of them.
CSK Fan Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 My complaint against that ad is that it did not have an Indian in there. :mad: The guy doing the 'kalaripayattu' is an Indian
Prakat Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 Even if it's a BRIC vs EU' date=' it's still racist, cause EU isn't just whites. Anyways, racism comes in all flavors, this is one of them.[/quote'] and it's vanilla
anotherhawkeye Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 How is this racist? Welcome to the party. 2 days later and after several posts that tried to address the same question.
Nova Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 Just watched this. I thought it was very creative and well executed. You watch it the second time and third time and the punch line "the more we are, the stronger we are" suggests a deeper meaning which can be interpreted in more than one way. This is not racist.. it's feminist... all the women coming together to overpower us men. :hitler: :D
