Nice editing to make them seem racist.

@zeTrojan hate to tell you but THEY ARE. How would you feel if it was an Australian broadcast making similar accusations about Americans?

[PercyCTV]

I can not speak for everyone obviously, but in the U.S., black people are perceived as these rowdy folks that just want to cause harm to establishment and be loud...and that's what that Australian ad did. It displayed blacks being loud and rowdy.

[nichenet]

@PercyCTV but they aren't. There were NO African Americans in the ad. The ad showed West Indies supports as they are...as the rest of the civilzed world accepts them. But hey, why accept that there are other people of African origin other than those in Amercia right, because that's what you are saying.

Looks like someone took a TYT video and chopped it up with windows movie maker. Lol fail troll.

[nichenet]

@HyperTheProfessor no my friend, you're the only one using Windows.

@PercyCTV Exactly the reason why they tried to keep it out the the US. If you were Australian, Indian, West Indie, English, South African etc. you would understand (from being at a west indie game) that they LOVE to have a mini carnival where they sit, it's actually pretty fun. And the awkwardness of the Australian fan stuck in the west indie crowd is that he is of the opposite team and can't really join in. The KFC is something that they can all share and eat together.

oh silly americans, i didnt know that america had a cricket team only supported by african americans

A show called TYT is to an Armenian what a show called "The Nazis" is to a Jew. They are extremely racist.

@jazminelovenicki The West Indians are loud because they're obviously winning and enjoying themselves at the game. Of course they would shut up, it's kind of hard to cheer whilst eating. He gives them fried chicken because it's a KFC ad. Not because of some stereotype that is irrelevant to every country in the world except USA.

[jazminelovenicki]

@rxonez1 The west indians are loud and the white guy is quite in his seat and then when the white guy gives them fried chicken they shut the fuck up, thats what your missing

[jazminelovenicki]

@P3B34r There's a civilized WHITE guy with a bunch of loud crazy ass people (who are most likely West Indians but look no different from African Americans) and then when you give them FRIED CHICKEN (everyone knows the stereotype about black people and fried chicken) they shut up -__- really that doesn't appear to be even a little racist, maybe if you loked at it from an African American point of view instead of just YOUR point of view you would notice that

[P3B34r]

@jazminelovenicki WRONG AGAIN... They are ignorant because they shoot off their mouths without understanding the context of the commercial It has nothing to do with American stereotypes, people in the commercial are not portrayed as uncivilized. You are ignorant because you fail to understand context and see things only from your own perspective.

@P3B34r The COMMERCIAL is ignorant not them
