The Super Bowl is a bunch of racism for racists, or something.
And it turns out Coke isn’t just SODA. IT’S WOKE SODA.
So Coca Cola is pulling out of the Super Bowl, and instead spraying us with their carbonated WOKENESS before the game.
Cooooooool. We know how well that went for Gillette.
According to Daily Wire:
According to the Boston Herald, Coca-Cola will be running the 60-second advertisement just prior to kickoff to promote unity and positivity in the age of President Trump. Stuart Kronauge, senior vice president of marketing for Coca-Cola North America and president of its sparkling beverages business unit, said in a statement that the ad was specifically placed before the National Anthem.
“We have a long history of using the country’s biggest advertising stage to share a message of unity and positivity, especially at times when our nation feels divided,” he said. “This year, we decided to place our ad just before the national anthem as Americans come together in their living rooms to remind everyone that ‘together is beautiful.'”
Ok… So I GUESS this could have potential to not be AWFUL?
We’ll see. I’m counting on it being pretty bad.
Coca-Cola’s decision to run a pre-game ad may prove risky, considering that its main competitor, PepsiCo, will be running several ads for various soft drinks during the game, including one with singer Michael Buble.
So far, Coca-Cola’s openly woke advertisements have avoided the backlash that Pepsi faced when it ran that horrendous Kendall Jenner protest ad, in which the model defused a hostile situation by handing a police officer a Pepsi.
Whaaaatever.
