dycarbon1, I guess if you're retarded, insecure, and can't handle liquor, I suppose you're right. The rest of the world is having a drink right now. Cheers!
This is a perfect bit of advertising, hats off to their marketing department. I don't even care for Absolut, but this makes me want to get a bottle lol
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Wtf! This is not Absolut Vodka! This is the absolute propaganda of an absolute relationship-breaking, job-losing, violence-inducing, mind-fucking liquid in a bottle!
Vodka, beer or other widely abused beverages do not have the right to post ads that give people the impression that they are good for you!
One of my favorite songs from that album...and this commercial is fucking awesome. This might be the first case of me actually wanting buy something based entirely off of the commercial.
Wait...what were commenting about here?! Oh, I thought this was about I Monster being in the Absolut Vodka ad, my bad, didn't realize this was a political rant.....
"cwp91206" Nice, talking about hate, based on a chicano group, and a speech of an expresident wich by the way has been working as a corporate executive in many US corporations and was the director of the globalization center in Yale, yes sir, it was an speech of competitiveness in a globalized world, get over it. There's going to be foreing people more and more everyday in every country, that doesn't mean everybody is invading you my paranoid friend.
Learn how to read, mark. Zedillo was speaking as President of Mexico and was clearly asserting Mexican jurisdiction over Mexican communities in the US. There were 100,000s of thousands of Mexican illegal aliens in the streets waving Mexican flags last summer.
Yeah, who should we believe? You, or our lying eyes? ROFL!
1) Ex-president, writing in present time (2 more after EZPL).
2) Nation not always applies just to territory, but also to citizens, citizens of one nation can work outside their territory and extend the commercial boundaries of their nation...
3) Anyone who wants to live a lie can use even one single speech, that doesn't give the right to spread wrong information.
4)Get new internet misinformation to argue with, this Aztlan stuff is getting old =).
1.Zedillo was President when he made those comments. Neither Fox nor Calderon has negated the comments. They still stand.
2. You're as stupid as Clinton talking about what "the meaning of is is." Many illegal alien Mexicans seek political sovereignty for Mexico over US territory.
3. President Zedillo's comments are a fact. You're lying when you say he didn't say what he said.
4. All you have is the Big Lies the La Raza and Mecha hate groups taught you in Aztlan/Reconquista 101, Mr. Tan Klan.
Oh so our little hater friend cwp ran out of lame internet-misinformation excuses and now starts attacking, no sir, I don't need any extremegroup literature to know when a couple of terms are wrongly defined in order to support wrong causes, in this case Aztlan (Legendary city), Reconquista (Fuentes and Poniatowska ironic definition for cultural invasion), la raza (poorly adaptation of the concept of raza cosmica from Vasconcelos). Read a book before giving opinions or ignorance will consume you
reconquista? you have no claim in justice because mexico stole the land from the Indians. If the land should be returned, it doesn't go to Mexico, but to the first nations. you still lose.
Amazing how the Mexicans in this thread scream that the ad is BS while simultaneously screaming about "stolen land" and how they're going to take it back. ROFLMAO!!!!!!
killed and raped all other races in the past, then now enforcing entire world to accept their democracy, politics and science. Any nation does not follow is regarded as barbarians and evil power regardless of the necessity.
What about their hunts and kills to Indian (from india),native Americans, chinese, native Aussies, Africans, African Americans?
"I have proudly affirmed that the Mexican nation extends beyond the territory enclosed by its borders and that Mexican migrants are an important, a very important part of it."
President Ernest Zedillo of Mexico, Chicago 1997
TRANSLATION: Mexico is wherever there are Mexicans. The Mexican government claims jurisdiction wherever Mexicans are, even outside the borders of Mexico. In effect, this makes Mexican communities in the USA colonies of Mexico.
The Mexican War is not the same as the War for Texas Independence.Gus,you need to read some more history, for you confuse the details of the two.Mexican troops fired first on U.S.troops who were on dipusted territory.
Actually it was the American troops who were the aggressors. At one point they crossed into Mexican territory and fired on a Mexican cavalry patrol. They fired back in self defense and the Americans fled. This was used as an excuse by the president and many in congress as an excuse to declare war. Few actually believed that Mexico fired first. Abraham Lincoln even demanded proof.
Let's just say that's the self-serving Mexican version of events. You miss the point, Gus. The territory was in dispute. Mexico forced the issue and paid the consequences.
Mexico did not force the issue. America did. That is why they declared war. Because of it many Mexican natives, tribal natives and Africans living in the those areas suffered greatly. That is what is important for people to know. It is the truth.
Also most of the violence in Mexico is due to the drug cartels. They have been fighting harder ever since the military started cracking down on them. The Mexican government isn't really known for committing human rights violations.
Nope, the Mexicans attacked the Americans. Oh, so Mexico, the rated as one of the worst human rights abusers in the world is the great defender of Indian and blacks?!?! LOL! The people of Chiapas don't see it that way. ROFL!!!
Mexican is not a human rights abuser, eh? Confirmed, you are a bald face face liar and/or world class ignoramus.
When Mexico owned the territory Americans began to flood into the territory. Mexico gave them land to farm. The main reasons why they chose to rebel was because saw Mexicans as inferior and because Mexico had anti-slavery laws. The war was illegal. American troops threatened and then attacked Mexican troops. Then they lied about Mexico being the aggressors. Many in congress didn't even believe those claims. Abraham Lincoln even demanded proof. The government wanted the land then took it.
gusV111 you are fucking right....i took california history in a california college...and my teacher was white...and one time he said...i feel ashame of the unfair war the u.s did to mexico ,,,....so you are right about history..president polk send some troops to cross into mexican territory. to provoke mexico... mexican troops killed those invaders and thats how the war started.
Taking golds and lands,raping the women, enslaving the men,killing the children, selling drugs and alchols,thats what all White people have been doing to all other races.
White people have been raping all Africns, Arabians, Asians, Indians, red, yellow black in both past and current history.
Wow, our Tan Klan friends Gus, Ray, and francis are having a nice little hatefest. They repeat their Aztlan/Reconquista 101 Big Lies just like you see those poor little Muslim orphan kids doing in those Madrasas.
fuck u.s and los pinches greengos. land thiefs..and fuck england too because they send us the invaders los greengos in the mayflower shit..i mean ship..
More Corporate Lies. The Absolut people would have you believe the map shown is from 1825. Panama is shown as a separate country. However the truth is that Panama was part of Columbia in 1825 and not a counrty till 1913. The "old map" explanation is just another corporate lie. Maybe the Absolut people will try to sell more vodka in Germany by showing a map of Europe in 1940 with a swastika over France to show the "good old days" of German pride.
I don't really remember the Frito bandito or the Chihuahua drinking absolute alcohol, putting a map, longing for a old war they started, lost, then sold, do a commercial about it ? Maybe I missed that advertising blitz in America? Maybe they can get an advertising blitz for their own country(Sweden) with a old map with European borderlines? Now that's advertising! Cheers!
One of the worst marketing ideas EVER was released, there'll be studies for years on it in advertising. You wonder how a campaign like that would be approved by a company? I guess they'll do anything to get Mexican business, including romanticizing invading other countries? Oh right their Swedes, never mind.
How about an ad showing (what is now mexico)as the 51st state in the United States of America - what kind of response do you think that would get?!?!?!?!?!?!
It's just an ad. Remember 'Frito Bandito'? it was just an ad right?
Funny how all this hatred coming from 'patriots' that live in states named after Native American and Spanish words. Not to mention the street names their homes reside on.
Como lo quieran ver, pero a los gringos les ardió en lo más profundo y ese es el fin del comercial. Y si no lo toman no pasa nada, que por otras formas se siguen metiendo hasta lo que no.
lOS MEXICANOS COSECHAN TODO LO QUE DESAYUNAN EN CADA UNA DE SUS CASAS, LEGALES O NO Y TODOS LOS AMERICANOS SE LO COMEN MUY CONTENTOS. ES CIERTO, TOMEN MENOS ALCOHOL Y VERAN LA REALIDAD COMO ES.
actually come to think of it, this recent advert might actually have the opposite effect that people think. Many non-americans who dislike what america is doing are gonna buy absolut vodka because of this ad
why dont you actually get off your ass and see what the world actually thinks of america and its foreign policies. Im afraid however that you are too arrogant to understand
absolut is a vodka just like all the rest, you guys are idiotically sensitive.. boycotting absolut because the ad mocks america, its quite pathetic really
Because of the complete insensitivity of the recent mexican ad and lack of substantive apology I will not serve Absolute Vodka in my home (I do a great deal of entertaining) and will ensure that any bar or restaurant I visit will not serve me, or my friends, Absolute Vodka. There are plenty of other great Vodkas available.
Boycott Absolut! If Mexico likes their ads, they can continue buying it, but the loss of American business is enough to destroy any global company. Absolut Muerto.
DinoKill, see thats the problem. You can't even recognize whats happening in front of your own eyes. I am being facetious here, but lets hope that there is an America for our soldiers to come back to. Hopefully this incident will wake up the dumbfucks and liberals (which just might include Dinokill who I think still thinks wrestlemania is real lmfao) to get off their lazy asses and put an end to this illegal immigration/reconquest movement, and start reinforcing our laws
If your a proud American, Boycott this piss. Shame to any American citizen who still drinks Absolut. Notice I said American citizen. I do not trust any of these so called "multinational companies"... loyal to nothing but their bank accounts.
to: sowhttt: Exactly. And while you're at it: BOYCOTT BANK OF AMERICA. They open more accounts with ILLEGALS with the Mexican Matricula card that isn't worth the paper it's on. Mexican BANKS won't even accept it!
"This ad certainly has nothing to do with immigration issue or anti-Mexican sentiment. It's based on a historical perspective on what Mexico once was."spokesman.
And its true, your all conspiracy nut jobs.
The AD was in Mexico, not the US. And it says how it an absolut world, Mexico would've not lost the land. What did you all want them to say? "In a perfect world you would've still lost, losers!" Boy that would've sold the product.
To: WorldTravelTV: WRONG! It has EVERYTHING TO DO WITH ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION. If you were educated on the subject you'd know that the illegalsl who invade the US do so with "Reconquista" in mind -- take back what they think is rightfully theirs and this ad feeds into that mentality. Get it?!?
Educated? Oh i should go and watch some Ron Paul, MecHA, North American Union, NAFTA, Brown Pride, Invasion videos on YouTube. To educate myself on IMMIGRATION AND EMIGRATION?
They do it with a "Reconquista midnset"? A nut job.
Maybe the mindset is "I'm poor, or there is a narco-terrorist in my community, maybe that country over there will have more options than this."
Immigrants could care less about who wons Hollywood, Sin City
"worldtravelTV", what the hell does "conspiracy nut jobs", as you put it, have ANYTHING to do with the Absolut ad?? You sound like a complete moron even saying anything about a "conspiracy". Fact: Absolut published an ad that Americans took insult too, and rightfully so. What the hell does "conspiracy nuts" have anything to do with this. Look up the word "conspiracy", you fucking loser, because you have no clue what your ranting about. lol
Fuck the idiot executives who approved the reconquista ad. They should be dragged out into the street and lynched from the nearest tree. And fuck absolut vodka. I'll make sure to avoid their brand in the future.
to: wrinky436: Why am I not surprised that a French socialist thinking company owns this. I thought a Swedish company owned it, but in this day and age, companies are sold left and right. BOYCOTT ABSOLUT!!!
If you lived in the SW-ern US - while we can still call it that - you would feel differently. Or maybe you do and you're too dense extrapolate beyond the gripes over the the re-imagining of a map.
nah, I understand. How this ad could have been approved it beyond me. But I've read pretty extreme comments on different forums, where people takes this whole thing way to far. So I guess I'm pretty much set in a defensive mode right now.
They can absolutely kiss my American ass! Google Absolut Reconquista ad. The anti-American company, took it upon themselves to redraw America's borders.....
I poured my remaining Absolut down the toilet. I've passed the ad to everyone I know as well as the pic we will now have nothing to do with Absolut. I would also love to send all the Mexican illegal aliens Absolut's way (since they think this situation is so "charming.")
To the Swede that likes Absolut so much, we have a ton of illegal alien Mexicans to send your way. Now you too can have the pleasure of providing FREE births to illegals along with a myriad of benefits (FREE) along with FREE schooling, breakfasts and lunches. You'll also get treated to annual "LA GRAN MARCHAS" while proudly waving their flags and disrespecting ours.
The Ultimate Commercial. Have to hand it to their advertising team, they f*cking nailed it with this one. I don't drink vodka and this makes me want to buy a bottle of Absolut lol.

However the truth is that Panama was part of Columbia in 1825 and not a counrty till 1913. The "old map" explanation is just another corporate lie. Maybe the Absolut people will try to sell more vodka in Germany by showing a map of Europe in 1940 with a swastika over France to show the "good old days" of German pride.

How about Absolut profit loss??

I don't really remember the Frito bandito or the Chihuahua drinking absolute alcohol, putting a map, longing for a old war they started, lost, then sold, do a commercial about it ? Maybe I missed that advertising blitz in America? Maybe they can get an advertising blitz for their own country(Sweden) with a old map with European borderlines? Now that's advertising! Cheers!

One of the worst marketing ideas EVER was released, there'll be studies for years on it in advertising. You wonder how a campaign like that would be approved by a company? I guess they'll do anything to get Mexican business, including romanticizing invading other countries? Oh right their Swedes, never mind.

How about an ad showing (what is now mexico)as the 51st state in the United States of America - what kind of response do you think that would get?!?!?!?!?!?!

It would probablly cost a lot less to do that than to keep paying all those billions of dollars to fight the drug war....

It's just an ad. Remember 'Frito Bandito'? it was just an ad right?
Funny how all this hatred coming from 'patriots' that live in states named after Native American and Spanish words. Not to mention the street names their homes reside on.

Because of the complete insensitivity of the recent mexican ad and lack of substantive apology I will not serve Absolute Vodka in my home (I do a great deal of entertaining) and will ensure that any bar or restaurant I visit will not serve me, or my friends, Absolute Vodka. There are plenty of other great Vodkas available.

DinoKill, see thats the problem. You can't even recognize whats happening in front of your own eyes. I am being facetious here, but lets hope that there is an America for our soldiers to come back to. Hopefully this incident will wake up the dumbfucks and liberals (which just might include Dinokill who I think still thinks wrestlemania is real lmfao) to get off their lazy asses and put an end to this illegal immigration/reconquest movement, and start reinforcing our laws

If your a proud American, Boycott this piss. Shame to any American citizen who still drinks Absolut. Notice I said American citizen. I do not trust any of these so called "multinational companies"... loyal to nothing but their bank accounts.

"This ad certainly has nothing to do with immigration issue or anti-Mexican sentiment. It's based on a historical perspective on what Mexico once was."spokesman.
And its true, your all conspiracy nut jobs.
The AD was in Mexico, not the US. And it says how it an absolut world, Mexico would've not lost the land. What did you all want them to say? "In a perfect world you would've still lost, losers!" Boy that would've sold the product.

To: WorldTravelTV: WRONG! It has EVERYTHING TO DO WITH ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION. If you were educated on the subject you'd know that the illegalsl who invade the US do so with "Reconquista" in mind -- take back what they think is rightfully theirs and this ad feeds into that mentality. Get it?!?
aprillh 3 years ago
Educated? Oh i should go and watch some Ron Paul, MecHA, North American Union, NAFTA, Brown Pride, Invasion videos on YouTube. To educate myself on IMMIGRATION AND EMIGRATION?
They do it with a "Reconquista midnset"? A nut job.
Maybe the mindset is "I'm poor, or there is a narco-terrorist in my community, maybe that country over there will have more options than this."
Immigrants could care less about who wons Hollywood, Sin City
Espically people living in another country.

"worldtravelTV", what the hell does "conspiracy nut jobs", as you put it, have ANYTHING to do with the Absolut ad?? You sound like a complete moron even saying anything about a "conspiracy". Fact: Absolut published an ad that Americans took insult too, and rightfully so. What the hell does "conspiracy nuts" have anything to do with this. Look up the word "conspiracy", you fucking loser, because you have no clue what your ranting about. lol

If you lived in the SW-ern US - while we can still call it that - you would feel differently. Or maybe you do and you're too dense extrapolate beyond the gripes over the the re-imagining of a map.

nah, I understand. How this ad could have been approved it beyond me. But I've read pretty extreme comments on different forums, where people takes this whole thing way to far. So I guess I'm pretty much set in a defensive mode right now.

Muslims murdered people over that cartoon. Americans are opting not to buy a product. Only a complete idiot would equate the two.

To the Swede that likes Absolut so much, we have a ton of illegal alien Mexicans to send your way. Now you too can have the pleasure of providing FREE births to illegals along with a myriad of benefits (FREE) along with FREE schooling, breakfasts and lunches. You'll also get treated to annual "LA GRAN MARCHAS" while proudly waving their flags and disrespecting ours.
