man, that commercial was stupid cringe
Super kawaii OH EM GEE UwU
"I'll be straight" @Praxi that's the one thing he isn't.
right, so bad lol
@Matt Christiansen has the right of it, IF I go in that store, I just want some damn boots without being bludgeoned over the head with your political message.
It has to do with the demographic shift of rei patrons
Same with Patagonia
They're aware and embracing
Faustian deal
wat
Demographic shift
Is it an actual shift though? Or just a vocal minority?
🤔
even the mexicans and sand niggers don't like this shit
Def a shift
so who are they advertising to
flaming faggots aren't big outdoorsy people
Go into rei and see how many dirt bags you see
they're a tiny portion of society in general
if that's their actual thinking
any source that I can quote on that in the off chance I get into a conversation @slowed ?
they're targeting the wrong demographic
and they should all be fired
@Praxi slow is just wrong
@Praxi I can probably dig up a quote from the Patagonia founder on it, rei might be trickier
it's just because all these corporate ad agencies have been pozzed
that's literally all it is
and look at how it gets posted everywhere
even bad publicity is good publicity
there's some of that too
Yvon has mentioned in interviews how he was worried about the "patagucci" people
The average consumerist zombie normie will see it and forget, but they might remember REI or whatever when they think they need something.
I go to rei because they have helpful, nice, staff and a great return policy
But even then, with commercials like these the evidence seems to be nobody remembers the brand just the commercial
Like BudWeisEr Frogs
@slowed Ithink you're part of the "demographic shift" which is why you think it's smart to advertise to faggots.
I've never bought a new Patagonia item so idk
why the personal attacks? We can discuss without name calling ya?
@Praxi no that's not edgy enough
ahh gotcha, too much Kingsmen, manners make the ... etc... 😄
If I'm not hurling petty insults how is anyone supposed to know I'm a big tough manly man
