I’m Not Feeling You Thinking/Talking/Sending Me Petitions About The Keffiyeh Kerffufle
So, if you missed it:
Retard 1 appeared in a “viral ad” (viral ads are ads that aren’t good enough for TV and so end up on the internet) for Dunkin’ Donuts.
Then, retard 2 (and a bunch of other hateful right wing bloggers) decided that the scarf the first retard is wearing looked like a keffiyeh (which is a traditional scarf men wear because scarves come in handy in the desert), and so wrote a letter asking Dunkin’ Donuts to pull the spot (which is impossible because it’s on the internet and how do you pull a spot that’s on the internet?) because they’re racist.
Then the retards at Dunkin’ Donuts caved and “pulled the spot”.
Then, these retards sent me a petition asking me to boycott Dunkin’ Donuts until they apologize for taking the ad off their homepage (by the way, their petition is all fucked up because it’s not a traditional Palestinian scarf, it’s a Bedouin scarf and men wear them all over the middle east, as well as parts of Asia, Europe and North Africa) .
Anyway, here’s the thing, I think anti-Arab sentiment in the US is an issue, but I will never boycott anyone for taking even the littlest piece of Rachel Ray-related media out of my sight, for whatever reason.
Also, there are 1000 good reasons to boycott Dunkin’ Donuts (#1: Childhood Obesity) and/or Rachel Ray (#1: She’s a retard), but the fact that they pulled some commercial that none of us should have to (or want to) watch anyway because it didn’t contain a keffiyeh is just never going to be one of them. There are things that are too insignificant to care about and this is one of them.
