Fantastic Racism/Advertising

  • This Sonic commercial. You actually feel bad for the vampire.
    • Again with Sonic, where the police talks with a ghost about someone rattling chains and moaning. The ghost takes offense to this only for moments later to see a guy on the other side of the parking lot doing just that.
    • The fact that he's being profiled by a black cop causes people no end of amusement.
    • It seems that Sonic's new ad campaign is 'Sonic is Fantastically Racist', because they have a commercial where a robot isn't allowed to eat the food because it's 'People Food'.
  • The GEICO cavemen ads could be seen as an example of this...which leads to Unfortunate Implications, when you consider that the campaign is essentially mocking the victim for getting offended.
  • Between meerkats and mongooses in the Compare the Meerkat campaign. During "The Battle Of Fearlessness" Alexandr's "grandpappy" fought in a war against them.

Q: Isn't a meerkat a type of mongoose?
A: NO! This great insult! Mongoose not good enough to lick dropping from my shoe! I am meerkat and I live in mansion filthy mongoose could only dream about in wildest dreams.
