I'm not really sure

I'm not really seeing it. I suppose if your some kind of anal retentive sjw looking real hard for something to be offended at you might think the bees sound like caricatures of a southern black stereotype. Sorry but I can't make that leap here. I'm going to save my faux outrage for something a bit more tangible.

The black folks accent I'd guess.

The black folks accent I'd guess.

that's my guess too, but it just sounds like a southern, female accent to me. I'm sure that makes me a raciest to the sjw folks as i'm a white male. i probably shouldn't even be commenting. but too damn bad.

 

[Charmonium]

You gots a probbem wit dat honey? 😉

I guess the thick lips animation doesn't help either. I could see someone gettin mad at it.

It's very, very vaguely 'blackface' with a southern accent. I kinda think someone's reaching, but yeah sjw momentum is a 'use it or lose it' kind of thing.

Southern maybe.. southern black? That's a stretch. Growing up we had some hillbilly neighbors in Kansas who spoke like that who were born and grew up in the area.

Agreed.

 

[Insomniator]

accents are racist now?

 

[Chaotic42]

Weird. I grew up on a watermelon farm in rural Mississippi and it just sounded like a southern accent to me.

Exactly Southern whites southern blacks whatever don't sound very different at the end of the day unless you are an

anal retentive sjw looking real hard for something to be offended at

 

[AznAnarchy99]

Isn't racist that you're automatically associating their accent with african americans?

 

[amdhunter]

Wow, that's super offensive. Amazing what people get away with these days.

 

[Fardringle]

It's a stupid commercial, but the ONLY racism present here is in the minds of those who want to see it everywhere, especially when it doesn't exist.

[Red Squirrel]

No idea how this would be racism.

 

[Capt Caveman]

The lips mimic those of that wore black face.
