    Yes, 93X did that when it was changing to The Edge back in 1993, when Alt had hit critical mass and taken over the traditional hard rock genre in popularity. We played it in the Apple Valley Best Buy warehouse for the whole day.

      Leftists take their hate for everything to a new low, even going so far as to accusing a black person of having white privilege. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOnH6B2S-44

          Hadn't seen it. It's a great ad. I mean, f-ck them for using the issue to sell products, but even so, it's a great ad.

          Who would object to it? Bullies. Harassers. Abusers. Rapists. And their enablers. Keep that in mind when you hear who is screeching.

          We are leaving the apes behind, finally. Only took 20 million years.

              People who see an attack specifically on toxic masculinity as an attack on all masculinity are, unbeknownst to them, perfectly illustrating the problem.

                Precisely.

                But they still own the airwaves. Think of all the tropes repeated hundreds of times a night in front of every young boy and girl. Violence is the final solution to a problem. Brute strength is the basis for all power. A "real man" can only be "pushed so far." The ideal hero may solve his problems without resorting to violence, but he still could be violent and succeed. Superheros are rich (so they can resort to economic violence) and of course physically strong and well equipped (technological violence).

                The apes still own the imagery of our society. Marketing knows the best way to sell needless products is to bypass intellect and go right to emotions, and the strongest emotions are ape emotions.

                We still have a ways to go, as the apes break into a sweat knowing their days are over, and grip their guns all the more tightly. We've done well to create Ape Reservations in the south and on the prairie to keep them out of our way and let them indulge their violent fantasies by culling each other. With heart disease and opioids and suicide it's only a matter of time until their numbers are so small marketing doesn't even pay them any mind.

                    I haven't seen the ad but read about it elsewhere. What are 2 boys wrestling supposed to represent?

                      The "wrestling" is supposed to be one kid kicking the sh-t out of the other. Or as primatologists call it, establishing dominance.

                        Well, I mean, you have the Heineken ad from a couple years ago about racism/LGBT/etc issues to sell a product. Doesn't mean it's not a good message (btw the Heineken ad is outstanding).
                        Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.
