Discussion: Trolls Attack Old Navy For Tweeting Picture Of Interracial Family

LOL. Iā€™m kinda thinking you fucks never went to Old Navy to begin with ā€“ so you not patronizing them now is laughable. That said, I, myself, do have some Old Navy shirts. There is a large Old Navy store here in Charlottesville, and I think Iā€™ll go visit them next week. Cool advertising, Old Navy!

The only thing thatā€™s actually worse than all the racism that persists in America is all the white] people who want to pretend weā€™re in a ā€œpost-racialā€ society and all the nasty stuff went away years ago when segregated water fountains were retired.

Evil persists, folks. Race-based hatred and segregationist urges are alive and well in 21st century America.

This miscegenation junk is rammed down our throats from every direction.

ALWAYS with the violent sexual imagery with Rethiugs. Always. Not only are they victims, in general, of society at large but they use the imagery of being forced to submit physically. Depraved doesnā€™t even come close to describing this.

They should offer the racists upset by the ad the option not to take the 30% off.

Thereā€™s a lot of places they are going to have to stop going to and things they are going to have to stop buying as I see a lot of mixed couple ads these days. Wonder when they will demand that private business can refuse mixed couple service too?

Edit: I should have ended that last sentence withā€¦, again!

Sad. But points for spelling miscegenation correctly, I guess.

Some folks think big words add meaning to their small thoughts.

There are certain words and phrases that only right wingers use, like ā€œrammed down our throatsā€ or ā€œPCā€ and ā€œPC culture.ā€

I wish that people who used those phrases would turn into chocolate so we could melt them down for Valentinesā€™ Day candy.

Of all the racist complaints I can believe least, itā€™s miscegenation ones ā€“ I donā€™t know how you even lie to yourself about that one.

If itā€™s possible to determine the identity of the troglodytes doing the tweeting, Iā€™m all for outing them. Thereā€™s no doubt thereā€™s a Republican hiding there, maybe even an elected official.

Has John Roberts been briefed about this yet?

Those are the biggest hypocrites of all ā€“ because at home on their computer, locked away in a special folder thatā€™s probably password-protected and even encrypted, they have terabytes of interracial porn.

That one seemed like obvious troll to me, especially with a user handle of Cultural Combat.

Old Navyā€™s marketers are smacking their foreheads, thinking ā€œman, we should have had a backup plan to sock puppet some racist responses, in case Twitter users didnā€™t attack the ad on their own.ā€ The company couldnā€™t have asked for better results from the tweet.

These right-wing types always seem to have ā€œthings shoved down their throatsā€ very high in their thoughts. Wonder why?

Yeah, thatā€™s the part I hate ā€“ that Old Navy, one of the most trendy hipster pile-of-feces merchants of crap in this country, will now be getting ā€˜sympathy shoppersā€™.

The only way Iā€™d growl more would be if it were Abercrombie & Fitch.
