    • Shame on Pepsi for even thinking this was a good idea to begin with -- exploiting a political climate for profit gains. Sickening.chukkaphob
    • It's only sickening if Pepsi were a business interest to someone in politics, otherwise there's nothing wrong with it at all.monospaced
    • It was in poor taste, for sure, but lots of ads benefit from some side of a political climate, and can't really help it either, because they pervade society.monospaced
    • Nothing wrong with exploiting a political climate for profit gains? Really, dude?chukkaphob
    • The worst case is some people are offended, which is clearly what happened. What is your argument here?monospaced
    • Brands are exploiting the political climate left and right, dude. There's no legal issue with it, it's not a new thing. CEOs can take a position, like it or notmonospaced
    • Man, oh mna, your "arguments" are truly exhausting. Why, oh why, did I respond to you? damn it. Ugh.

      *Ignore mode engaged.*

    • Unlike, of course, when Trump promoted his daughter's business on Twitter, which is exploiting politics for personal profits.monospaced
    • Hey, I'm just saying, I get that you don't like the ad ... I agree it was in bad taste too. But there's nothing actually wrong with taking a political stance.monospaced
    • I've seen way worse Apple ads to be fair.fadein11
