Rightwing outrage over the purple M&M “spokes candy” forces the end of that ad campaign

They would be simply absurd if they were not so dangerous

 

Pretty sure this is some kind of stunt that will tie into a Super Bowl ad, hopefully the first lesbian candy wedding on TV

 

she'd already been pushed aside in their spank bank...

 

The statement from Mars seemed playful. Sounds like this is just marketing and not caving to right wing pressure. I don't think we've seen the end of the spokescandies.

 

This has been a confusing controversy. So guys like Tucker - who generally think our society is over-sexualized - were upset that the candy mascots were not sexy enough? That justifies "cancel culture"? Or did I miss something else?

 

Don't get mired down in the details. The important thing to understand here is that the woke culture is trying to control you.

Don't believe me? Eat a purple M&M and try to not turn gay.

 

Is there really people upset with M&M commercials? I doubt it is serious, I can think of dozens of commercials I would be upset over before I would object to a candy commercial.
Screw the candy commercials, bring back Aunt Jemima if you want to make me happy.

 

A lot of damn rules to follow in order to eat M&Ms that the culture overlords approve of.

 

I mean... Even I think thats pretty funny Doc.

 

Pretty sure they arent pulling this campaign because of Tucker etc. Either market research shows it it losing market share or this is a stunt. Marketing depts care about one thing and it ain't making the Tuckster grumpy.

 

Look at all the free press M&M's are getting because they are pulling an ad campaign. Didn't have to spend a dime, and they are the front page of almost all major news outlet web pages. That's good Marketing right there...and your answer.

 

List of companies and personalities conservatives should boycott.. this is just the companies that start with "A".

NTF WORKSHEET: CONSERVATIVES SHOULD BOYCOTT the FOLLOWING COMPANIES & PERSONALITIES — Nebraska Taxpayers for Freedom

 

I’m going to throw away all my Al Sharpton t-shirts and posters. Glad I saw this before I placed that next order.

 

I feel like that list would be shorter if it contained the companies that they feel conservatives shouldn't boycott.

 

I don't follow pop culture and don't watch TV so I didn't know who Maya Rudolph is. So, I googled her and found that she is Minnie Riperton's daughter.


Minnie was born in Chicago and died in LA very young. She had breast cancer and it metastasized.
Here is the weird part. Maya was born in Gainesville in 1972.

(Wikipedia)
Rudolph was born on July 27, 1972, in Gainesville, Florida,[4] to singer-songwriter Minnie Riperton and composer Richard Rudolph.

Anyone have any idea why Minnie and her husband happened to be in Gainesville at that time?

 

Uh… she was the hooker in Idiocracy.

 

I can't access it but think you, or someone with an Orlando Sentinel subscription, will find the answer here. Maya comes home for her new comedy
