328,000+ plus (including myself) dislike the ad, 75,000 like it.
This won't hurt Gillette. When Nike embraced the SJWs sales and profits skyrocketed. Gillette is probably going have the same thing happen.

Gillette embraces the social justice warrior community
Gillette, the razor blade/shaving company has embraced it's politically correct side with a new commercial advertising both shaving products and social justice. It's an indictment of "toxic masculinity" and an embrace of politically correct social justice platitudes. Of course, the usual suspects are outraged, and the usual suspects have embraced Gillette. Me? I think it's sad and hilarious at the same time, but I don't use their products in the first place. Here's an interesting screen shot:

I don't get what the fuss is about. When did being respectful to women and raising good kids become SJW territory? I would hope that any decent man of any political persuasion would agree with the message Gilette was trying to send. Personally, I think the only thing offensive about them is the price of their blades.
ReplyDeletePart of the outrage is that they've subscribed to the PC agenda. You'll never see them produce an advertisement on fake rape claims-because then feminists will be outraged, as would the mainstream media.
DeleteYou are correct to some degree, we should all be respectful and raise good kids. What Gillette fails to comprehend is that most men (I'm guessing 90%) already do that. It's the 10% out there who are pigs.
I use Schick. ;)
ReplyDeletelol. Sadly, I think them becoming "woke" as the cool kids say will help their business big time.
