In a world where everything is racist, you can’t have a black person in an ad for tomato ketchup without legions of snowflakes complaining it perpetuates negative stereotypes and demanding that it be cancelled.
Ketchup kings Heinz folded like a soggy burger bun when they became the target of the angry puritan mob, pulling not one but two adverts after some complaints, likely mostly from white people with deep set guilt complexes.
The first ad, for a ‘family size’ pasta sauce, appeared on the London Underground and depicted a black woman getting married to a white man, with family members also in the picture.
At the meal they are eating the pasta with the sauce.
Seems diverse, right? Wrong.
Because there is no ‘black father’ present it’s actually deeply racist… or something.
It's subliminal messaging. It's a 'subtle' way of perpetuating myths. The media have been doing this for years. One of the benefits of SM, is that these narratives will be challenged @HeinzUK you should be embarrassed

It’s “shocking” that there are only two black people(?) out of five in the ad.
Total erasure of Black fathers by such a mainstream brand is shocking. How did this get approved?

The lighter skinned people are looking at the black girl stuffing her face with pasta in a disparaging way, so it’s even more racist… or something.
I had not seen the #Heinz advert … but I’ve just seen this image …

Apart from the absence of a “black father” in the image… if you look at the way her “white in-laws” are looking at her …it gives impression of a black person for first time fed food, like an orphan being fed
But hang on.
Why can’t the man to the right of the bride be her father?
How do you know that the people sitting on her right aren't her parents?
— RigelDog (@RaisingLesBars) October 7, 2024
Both of the bride's parents are there, on her right. The groom's mother is on his left. What am I missing here?
— Josh (@jm___123) October 7, 2024
Traditional wedding seating arrangements would mean that the father of the groom is missing not the father of the bride, he is right there on the very left

They might not even be related.
It’s a f***ing advert for pasta sauce, not some anti-black conspiracy.
Every single ad in this series https://t.co/JpLNwSJgyv has five people in the photo. Five nuns. Five hippies. A grandma with 4 kids. A bride surrounded by family members. But in every case: 5 people, not 6.

I would say the issue is more down to the space on the advertising board that required one character to be omitted for the aesthetic to have a beautiful woman centre to the advert than anything else. I seriously doubt there is anything sinister in it.

Instead of ignoring this stupidity, Heinz issued a grovelling apology, stating “We always appreciate members of the public’s perspective on our campaigns. We understand how this ad could have unintentionally perpetuated negative stereotypes.”
“We extend our deepest apologies and will continue to listen, learn and improve to avoid this happening again in the future,” the company added.
Here I fixed it. Does this make it any better ? ? pic.twitter.com/f9Ws5rFsGN

The insanity hasn’t ended there however.
Now every Heinz ad is under scrutiny, and a second one has been axed following accusations that it represented a black minstrel show… or something.
Heinz is out here “accidentally” recreating Blackface Sambo characters and propagandizing the untruth of Black fathers not being there for their families. pic.twitter.com/2kt4uZBSqb

It doesn’t seem to matter that the person in the ad is a black person. A minstrel show consisted of white people blacking up. This is an actual black person with ketchup on their face.
It’s also supposed to be The Joker, because there is a new Joker movie out. Hence the “ha ha” caption. There were also several versions of the ad with non-black people in them.
Stupid shit 101
— Trenton Ardolf, MD (@TrentonArdolf) October 12, 2024
Heinz released these ads the same day as Joker 2 came out…
Wouldn’t it be racist to not put any black person in the series of ads? pic.twitter.com/SCZNcS8sxx
It’s obvious, and only those who are so blinded by their obsession with everything everywhere always being racist all the time would fail to understand this.
So basically lipstick is blackface?
— God JB Pricker (Parody) (@GodPricker) October 12, 2024
Heinz pulls ads after these ads were supposedly the same as blackface.
The only horror here was the use of a ginger! pic.twitter.com/K0xejReDUK
But again, like a lettuce leaf caked in ketchup Heinz dissolved into apology, stating “Although it was intended to resonate with a current pop-culture moment, we recognise that this does not justify the hurt it may have caused. We will do better. We are working to remove the advertisement immediately.”
If they put black people in the ads they’re racist. If they don’t put black people in the ads, they’re racist.
Damned if you do, damned if you don’t.

Being triggered is all they have. They have nothing else to live for. It is the only thing that makes them feel as if their existence is validated. If people stopped listening to them, they would probably kill themselves.
I Want To See MORE Chinese and Mexican Cartel Members In The Movies And ALL Cartoons And Phizer Commercials!!-Talk about a RACIST Industry!!!-Less Pedophile Directors and Shady White Pedophile Hollyweird Imbeciles!!
It doesn’t matter, the damage to Europeans has already been accomplished with deliberate race mixing by the Globalists and assorted you-know-who’s.
“Globalists” is just a euphemism for “Jews”, is it not?
Aunt Jemima’s changed my daddy’s nappies and her granddaughter said this is all bollocks.
Sorry no, black culture is the biggest road block to black fatherhood.
Isn’t it some “coincidence” that the two biggest PARASITES in the world – the JUDAICS and the EBONITES – are also the most “discriminated” and “persecuted”!?

Yep, but only Whitey is falling for it due to decades of protracted White-Guilt and self-hate brainwashing by The Tribe. When Whitey starts properly organizing AND making enough noise collectively worldwide, AND starts withdrawing from the UN and its tentacles, that’s when the Tribe’s game plan shatters into fragments in their faces. Blackie’s position will collapse too as practically every other non-White race is not going to allow themselves to continue being suckered by the Tribe, into uplifting and empowering Blackie at the expense of their own kind like stupid Whitey currently does.
Only the elimination of the Ashkenazi Khazar will lead to global peace.
