I know the title is supposed to read “You’re” and not Your” but those are not my words and that influenced from tweets responding to Coca-Cola’s Super Bowl ad. To a lot of people it might seem like a normal ad meant to bring people together. Probably Coke wanted to say that their consumers in USA include those of every colour and race and this is their way to show some appreciation to their loyal customers.
Anyway, the response was remarkably racist (especially the ones that start off with – ‘I am not racist – but I am‘). As an international student in this country, I too would have got offended by some of their tweets if it wasn’t for the bad spelling and grammatical errors. These guys insist we speak English in this country yet they have a hard time differentiating ‘descent’ and ‘decent’.
Enough said and done; take a look at the ad here and the tweets below. Coke – America’s Real Choice!
