Audi Withdraws Ad Featuring Child Eating A Banana After It Is Called Threatening

I am so sick of these sensitive liberals. There was no ill intent here. People are just looking at something to complain about so it makes them feel righteous and just.

Hmm, I think it's more of the conservatives that couldn't be open-minded!

Actually it's Liberals who are of the "my way or the highway" intolerant mindset.

Has nothing to do with politics. But let's face it, the ad makes ZERO sense in and of itself. "Let your heart beat faster"??? What does a child eating a banana in front of a car have ANYTHING to do with that? What does a child eating a banana have to do with a car?

Welp this is the most attention an Audi ad has received in a longtime and it has nothing to do with its boring cars LMAO

Pedantic assholes use words like "welp".

I think the VW Group has hired the marketing department from the Calvin Klein apparel brand.

Racist VW ad? Check!

Kiddie Porn Audi ad? Check!

What next? Eagerly awaiting the Bentley 'Herion Chic' ad.

So while many might say "why are so many people offended??". I'll say that I was sitting here trying to figure out what the connections are here. As I posted earlier, what does a child eating a banana have to do with a car, and what do those elements have to do with making your heart beat faster? I can definitely see how people would get to the point of, "Oh, gross. NOW, I know what they were trying to do here." A bit disturbing really.

I hear Skoda is going to do scat porn in a Roomster.

Lack of oversight and a management failure. Pedo's on the ad creative team? Fine. But once this photo or "ad creative" gets to your desk as the head of marketing, WTF? Nobody on your own team though it was odd? Incredulous? Offensive? Not really a good idea?

It's all a bit unbelievable.

I don't get it? What's the threat?

Bananas are threatening to all Liberals who are impotent.

Actually the ad accomplished it’s goal. It’s being talked about, is being repeated without a costly ad buy! Issue an apology gain more for free exposure, will be forgotten by the next fake outrage. Mission Accomplished! We are dumb, but not so dumb.
