Old Spice ad differs from Gillette, same parent company

Go on the youtube video. Put a dislike on it.

Also right a negative feedback comment and say you're boycotting it too. Even though you love the add and like the product. Their association with Gillette is toxic and can't be tolerated.

You do this, and all the other brands will start doing politics to sink Gillette's new marketing strategy.

Basically, if someone at a completely different section of the company does something stupid that hurts themselves, they don't care. They might even be glad of it. They look good by comparison.

But if the dumb stuff Gillette does is hurting other business units. Everyone at the company will be demanding that Gillette stops and issues a full apology.

That apology is what we need as MRAs. It is confirmation that promoting toxic masculinity theory is not tolerated by the general population.

That Gillette advertisement is an opportunity to force an apology. Which would be an incredible milestone for MRAs.

Public apologies from the source are catastrophic for supporters of an ideology. Everyone that has ever spoken in favor of the Gillette advertisement will have been PROVEN wrong. Because even Gillette now understand that what they've done is wrong. Anyone still support the ideology behind it will appear unhinged.

There's a reason why you should never apologize to a feminist. There's a reason why, at this point it would be suicide for Gillette to apologize. That's why it's not enough for us to threaten the Gillette business, we have to threaten all of Procter and Gamble.

Every little bit counts. If Procter and Gamble has to start deleting youtube messages on their other brand's channels they will take notice.

If it's hurting the likes. They will notice.

If it's hurting sales. They will react.

Flip side of the same soulless coin.

I'm not here to "fight for your 'love,'" woman, and your drama fetishes are not endearing. Good luck with the next fella (and good luck to him).

P&G, now you're just half-assing yourself.
