Racist Intel Ad?

**Guji-Ji** · 28-08-2007, 17:05

I mean, what were they thinking??

**Evil_Genious** · 28-08-2007, 17:28

LOLLLLLLLLLLLLL...

I see what you mean.....

But when was the last time you saw a White Man win the 100 meters??

When it comes to running, the Black man got that in the bag......

No-one can catch a Black man when he's running, he's got that in the bag......

He can outsprint a car, dogs? It doesnt matter.... He's got it in the bag.....

The Black man, when it comes to running. It's in the bag.......

lol true most of the runners are blacks so i dont think they intended to be racists

**Zero** · 28-08-2007, 17:48

I dont think thats racist, but if they shows that same advert comparing Intel (with black men runners) and AMD (with white men runners) then THAT could be a tricky situtation lol.

Interesting thread I dont think its racist whoever the designer was was having a lazy day could not be bothered to do individual runner he just made the ONE copied it all across and for the ones opposite just mirrored the image.

I see what you lot mean but if i was black i would be offended. If you look even deeper their bowing down to the white man lol.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL....... I never saw that.....

Tru.... +REPP...

It's like the white man with the power and the technology and the black man, all power and strength, likened to a tool or an object that can be owned i.e computers....

Like when the white man went to Africa with guns (technology) and saw the muscular black man and stole him and took him to the US to own as slaves; coz of the strength and "Power" to "Maximise" and use as an "Employee" and who is 40% higher performer than others; i.e poor white man that can be owned.....

Note the earthy brown colours used in the poster, likened to the sandy mud of the African plain, not to mention the green of the windows behind the whiteman, which look like trees.....

The white man stands tall and proud, with an arrogant stance almost as if he's leaning back and notice his arms are crossed... Emotionally detached and shutt off from his Black slaves, smiling at the profit he's gainig from the Black men....

Notice that his shoes are brown and probably leather. Brown skin, is nothing but something of a accessory for this white man.... Nothing but to use for his benefit, for his comfort and for his needs.... Once, old and worn, they will be thrown away..... Just like the Black slave who becomes worthless when old and unable to perform the duties that the White man thinks he is used for.....

The shape of the white man's hair is a triangle, signifiying is rise to the top, the physical manifestation of his mental stance. He's at the top of the pyramid, the top of the food chain... The Black man lies at his feet, and gets what's left....

Notice all the Black men have no hair, they are stripped of their hair as a symbol that the Black man has less than the white man, he wears less clothes than the white man and is hidden from view. Not to be seen, not to be heard.... Just another part of the woodwork, faded into the background.... The white man stands at the center of this picture, the center of this world that we are invited into... Where the White man rules.... His belt reminds the Blacks that if they do not work hard enough, they will be whipped like their ancestors who were whipped and beaten 400 years ago....

The white man wins, the black man lies at his feet... The black man loses.... Always.....................

It's subliminal........

Nice analysis I MUST say though!

**Guji-Ji** · 28-08-2007, 19:15

Woah that was amazing analysis and i can definently see where your coming from. The poster whatever way you look at it stinks of ignorance.

**Cheeky_Princess** · 28-08-2007, 19:28

nice anylasis Mr EG

they could have done it diffrently i mean if they just added just one white runner it woudnt have seemed racist

but i mean i no its the same runenr dude whos been copied and pasted it just dont seem right....

have there been any offcial complants about it???

**issac_new** · 28-08-2007, 21:53

hmm i dont really see it as being 'racist'... just really crap... it looks very amateurish - just a quick cut and paste job. I find it hard to believe its a real ad for Intel.

as has been said before, I can think of lots of black athletes but not a single white one.

the way they are all positioned I get the impression the black guys are about to pounce on him.
