I saw this commercial on Cartoon Network the other day and my jaw dropped to the floor. Whoever created this condescending piece of crap needs to lose their job immediately. It’s such a terrible idea. Personally, I can’t stand Kool-Aid. It’s completely banned in my household. And that has nothing to do with perpetuating black stereotypes or anything. The stuff tastes nasty, period.

[...] This is a fake Kool-Aid commercial that was shown on Cartoon Network. Leave a comment on whether or not this is a lol or a smh. Is it funny or just straight up racist? Via TheRapUp. [...]
You are WAAAAAAYY too sensitive if you think this is racist!!! Stop frontin’ like black people don’t like Kool-aid. If you choose not to drink it…cool, but I’m willing to bet that about 75% of all Kool-aid is sold to black people, and most of us love it. There’s more important things to get upset about than juice mix. You my friend are BUGGIN’!!!

this is the first time i really disagree with therapup. how is this racist? because he is playing basketball? because the commercial lacks white people?
you are way overthinking this. your jaw honestly dropped?
I don’t even begin to see what the problem with this is. Get over your fucking skin color already.
