Absolutely insane.

This is the superbowl ad. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4eR--0vYHGc

The ad would actually be funny if it wasn't for the nazi shit, jfc. The shirt is the only thing being sold and it's literally just a swastika on a white shirt. I don't even want to post an image of it.

The comments on that are so... sad.

We've reached the point where "triggering the libs" means wearing a swastika on your shirt.

You and I have very different opinions on "funny". I saw that and thought it was fucking stupid. Knowing what's being sold on the site, even worse.

It's funny in contrast to how high budget super bowl commercials usually are imo. Obviously the person and what's being sold firmly puts it in the disgusting category.

For me, it's not even the person. It's just a dumb ad. Just a guy going "uhhh" for 30 seconds. Like some futile attempt at viral marketing. The overall cheapness of the ad could be endearing if it wasn't just so stupid.
