OK, if you can suspend your sensitivity, and look at it as a joke, that's pretty funny.

What's the most 'racist' are all of the comments of hand-wringing ninnies so very happy to be Oh-fended.
Those people need to lighten up. ...so to speak. Wait, was that Oh-fensive?

Anyway, making fun of skin tone is not going to bring back slavery. People whom scornfully demand that this is a racial piñata (needing to be busted open) need to put down the stick and take off their PC blindfold.

At least she enjoyed her bumpy ride on the washing machine.

This Chinese Detergent Commercial Is The Most Racist Advert Ever - Gistmania

Aside from the fact that you can always be counted on to support racism, (or claim that the only true racism is against whites), , it suddenly occurred to me that you actually consider yourself clever with this abominable style of writing of yours.

Horrible puns, witless plays on words....good god, boy, you're not even a clever redneck. It has to sting when no one chuckles around the virtual clan rally.

There are over 1 billion people in China - I don't know how many have TVs but that might be the majority view of the country. What does that say their view on race. Black today, white tomorrow.

OR do the Chinese have a different sense of humor??? I seem not to think so.

Based on this commercial, I'd say that their sense of humor is somewhere beneath that of a cretinous redneck. Island seems to like the commercial.

I've read something to the effect that there is no such thing as irony in the Chinese language or culture; if true, that would be very strange. They are certainly not known for giving the world any great comedy. As a society, unfortunately they are quite racist. This commercial could have been made in the U.S. in about 1915, when Birth of a Nation and pikininies were the rage.

Other than that, it's a great place.

Denis, I have been to China - My comment about their sense of humor was sort of tongue and cheek. They are told what to think. I would think they are racist. That was my observation.

The commercial is not particularly cleaver but it is designed to provoke a response.

So what's the message?

* Chinese women prefer Chinese men. (Not so bad really)
* Black people are dirty because if you use the right soap you can wash the black off them. (Overtly racist)

It's certainly racist. Should people be offended? I'm not but I'm also not black.

I love it. The more it offends, the better. Fortunately, PC hasn't overtaken Mainland China yet.

If only they'd have a lynching or drag a negro behind a pickup truck once in a while. That would be the ultimate in non-PC.

Yeah, too bad pickup trucks are so uncommon in the PRC.

They could use one of their hooptie vans, same-same. And I'm sure they have trees to hang a rope from. No PC crap for those guys.
