I voted for 36, though 10, 17, 25, and 39 are all contenders.
Like others, I don't understand how some of these are considered racist or even particularly offensive. Unless I'm missing something, 1, 5, 12, 16, 18, 19, 21, 30 (other than maybe the term if it's not Spanish), and 31 wouldn't give me a whole lot of pause. Is that bad? And there are several others where the main "racist stuff" is an accent. Numbers 5, 9, 22 (other than maybe the servant theme), and 26 are perhaps insulting if you consider those accents to be dumb or uneducated, but I guess I don't view them as inherently racist. Still not advisable, of course, but not horrendous.

I really don't understand the PC argument...
Do you guys prefer that time in the US? Do you wish ads and their companies would go back to calling blacks darkies to sell soap? Are minorities "soft" or too PC because they do not want to be depicted in these ways? I am honestly just trying to understand... |

You're clearly looking for a fight. Nobody said it was ok to be racist. Simply that some of these ads don't appear to be racist.

Sorry to misread you. It appears we agree.

It's not a good excuse, but they are just older and the mindset is completely different if they haven't evolved with the times. These ads simply have no shock value to me because most older people are much different and still will call people ****ers and shit behind their back. It's like I said in a previous post, I was born in 70, and it is a totally different world from just that far back. |

Also true that isn't a quality limited to white people.
