Can't find the Amtrak ad on YouTube. Can anyone post a link?

[Edgy MD]

I can't find it either. But man, searching for Amtrak ads is fun!

You only get wisdom like that from prescription medicine commercials.

The people who bought an ad on a national broadcast against Stacy Abrams are complaining that she's bankrolled by out-of-state interests.

I think they're just upset she's black.

The "doesn't stand for hard-working Georgians" part was nakedly racist.

Advertising these days is very regionalized and seems even re-regionalized

if that's a thing. I got an ad earlier for a baked potato cooker you put in the

microwave. Groundbreaking stuff... $19.95. It was like something you might

see if you can't sleep at 3AM on MeTV. Pardon my lack of brevity.



(for those reading this at a later time, this was on a Nationally broadcast ESPN

Mets game on a Sunday night)

I saw that in the DC area.

A lot of the ads have felt like low-budget late-night spots tonight. And yet they're being broadcast nationally in prime time.

[Willets Point]

Wait! A pro-Abrams ad has aired now!

this is a standard complaint in states outside NY/CA/TX/FL about any candidate with lots of funds raised. nothing racist there.

"All without raising taxes!"



Like that has ever happened regardless of who the ad is for.

the rest of the ad was more specific.



And that's obviously above and beyond that the entire national republican platform is racism and misogyny, so when your platform is racist, and you run an attack ad against a black woman..i mean..
