It does make you wonder what these cancellers real motive is?

[Alf]

In the picture is. The Quaker Oats guy, Uncle Ben, Aunt Jemima. I don't know who the American-Indian one is.

Didn’t realise the Quaker guy had to go

I think that's the point of the meme, he hasn't.

Oh lol

Think Aunt Jemima’s family didn’t want her to go p, but no one cared what they thought

so are companies not allowed to re-brand their products now?

Should things always remain the same?

These are commercial companies making commercial decisions on their branding which they are all allowed to do

[Alf]

Yeah, like I said they've erased the non-White characters from history. Thanks for sharing that which proves me right.

i swear that is James May

Some fictional characters in life are just sacred.

I wouldn't like it if they did a new seies of Mr Bean and they erased the character played by Rowan Atkinson' out of it.

It just wouldn't be the same.

That's why Connery is still James bond.

But James Bond hasn't been erased. My example was that Mr Bean was erased.

look at this young man, so upset that there'll be no more plates of white rice for dinner.

[Alf]

When people saw Uncle Ben, it made them happy because they knew that a plate full of rice was on its way.

[Alf]

There's even an Uncle Ben gag in an episode of Only fools and horses. That's how iconic a character he was, God bless him.

The non white characters are being erased from history by the racists.

[user104658]

So when branding is changed, the previous branding is erased from history? That seems a bit dramatic. Like when Joel McIlroy took over as Flynn in Home & Away, was Martin Dingle-Wall erased from history? Simply not possible he was a legend.

Think about that next time you say something so silly.

Are you just posting that because you have to be on the opposite side of the debate to me or are you genuinely arguing in the favour of the racists because
you agree with what they're doing?

Surely you can see there's a pattern emerging here with all these cancellations?

From what I’ve read they got cancelled because the branding had ‘negative stereotypes’.

But these cancellers are ridiculous, usually white female and middle class seeking approval from those less fortunate than them.

Didnt they once try to cancel Kevin the Carrot adverts because it wasn’t ‘representative’ of us as humans??

Again I don't see any stereotypes, they're just people smiling though I guess some racists might see a black person and immediately think "slave" ?
