Gay Oreo Inspires Internet Outrage

[Programmed_For_Damage]

My first thought was "that looks delicious"... Also, good luck boycotting Oreos...

Second thought:
"Yet another liberal company destroying our religious values and teaching immorality" - yeah, the religious values that cause people to encourage people to kill themselves, and some to believe that an all-powerful, benign creator has something against homosexuals.... Going against that is certainly immoral, all right...

I agree with all of that; plus if people's religious values are that flimsy that they can be corroded by a cookie company advertisement then I think Oreos are the least of their problems. They should probably focus on stamping out the rampant hatred they are spouting.

I just wish Walmart,McDonalds and the larger gun stores would come out with a similar statement, just to see how far they'd be willing to take their boycott.

'Dammit, I love guns, but I hate queers...whatever to do?'

Get enough stores accepting of alternative lifestyles and these loons will soon be rooting thru dumpsters rather than giving 'fag enablers' their dollars.

Honestly, get over it, I had an oreo earlier, and I'm no more craving cock that I was yesterday. I am craving more oreos tho.

I think companies need to stop taking political stances like this, all it does is causes controversy. Kraft is a food company, not a political party. Starbucks made the same mistake.

 

[SenseOfTumour]

On another tack, all these people saying that this is 'anti religion', aren't Oreo's already pretty much an image of gluttony, one of the seven deadly sins? Is homosexuality considered a bigger sin than being a 600lb couch whale covered in cheeto dust?

(and that's coming from a fat guy)

 

[PunkRex]

I bet it tastes fruity *bubum tish* and I want one!

 

[tmande2nd]

Oh dear lord.

Why do people forget that Jesus said "dont listen to the old testament" and "LOVE PEOPLE NO MATTER WHO THEY ARE, OR WHAT THEY DO!"

Its like he says that again and again and people just ugh
Well fuck them.

I like Oreos.

 

[PureIrony]

I'm going to eat one of those oreos and I'm going to love gay people.

Then, in about 10 minutes, I'm going to hate them.

"The cynic in me insists that there's no small amount of savvy marketing at work in this campaign. After all, as evidenced by Ellen Degeneres, not to mention more than 175,000 (and growing) "likes" on Facebook, nothing gooses public support like a sliver of vicious backlash from homophobe morons on the internet. But at the same time, even if it is getting something out of it, how can anyone be critical of Oreo for standing up for a good cause?"

Why is it cynical? Why can't a company do both? Why can't a company both support a good cause and hope it increases product sales?

If only all profitable companies supported good causes this world would be a better place.

But the worst thing about it all? Kraft isn't actually going to sell this six-layer rainbow monstrosity; it was made exclusively in honor of Pride Week.

I was gonna say, this part would be the only justifiable reason to outrage at Oreo. To tempt us with that cookie... BLARGH!
Also, stupid religious bigots yadda yadda yadda.

 

[Easton Dark]

That is the tastiest looking bit of 'controversy' I've ever seen.

And I want that giant rainbow Oreo. Looks delicious.

My first thought was "that looks delicious"

Looks like a good cookie too :3

Do want! That cookie looks delicious and that it could kill someone if thrown at them

You are all insane for wanting to eat that. It's the fucking Godzilla of oreos!

"our religious values and teaching immorality"

Like:
Slavery,
Rapist being forced to marry his victim,
Ethic cleansing (aka genocide),
Pride and jealousy,
The mass murder of children,
Bigotry,
Abandonment of family,
Slaughtering animals to cure disease (like leprosy can be cured via killing two pigeon),
Anti-progress, science, and reason.

Huh...you know?
Maybe we SHOULD start destroying such things.
Might make us more civilized.

It fills me with rage that they defend this kind of stuff.

 

[TheEndlessGrey]

As if we didn't already know that an oreo is representative of a gay, interracial threesome

True story.

Gah, beat me to it. I was just about to ask why these people weren't already boycotting Kraft for their support of interracial unions. Good luck boycotting Kraft, by the way. You'd have to grow your own produce and raise your own livestock to be completely free of their products.

Well, if Oreo was selling boxes of these monstrosities, it would quickly go from supporting gay rights to supporting obesity.
That would flip the marketing over.

 

[XMark]

They should sell those. Man, I would love to eat me some 6x-stuffed Gay Oreos!

 

[CardinalPiggles]

I feel sorry for the religious Americans that don't go around saying people need to die and burn forever in hell because of their sexual orientation (or other 'blasphemous' stances/acts), because these very vocal ignorant hateful people give the nice people such a bad reputation.

 

[Ashannon Blackthorn]

Please, this retards who are protesting are all herectics anyways. Seriously, go find me any bigot religious fundie fuckup and I can show you at least 3 ways they are going to hell, as sanctioned by their own Bible. It's really fucking funny if you can corner one of these idiots and turn the tables on them. They yell and scream and all you literally if you go by their Bible you can kill them for being sinners. They really love that part.

Religious nutcases, gotta love em.

 

[CrazyGirl17]

(Face palm) ...I hate people sometimes. I really do. They don't want to eat Oreos anymore? Fine, more for me!

 

[AngloDoom]

I'll file this under T for "Tasty", and O for "Oh no, someone's being an idiot over the internet - TO THE ESCAPIST!"

In all seriousness, that looks revolting in a tasty way - like a Big Mac, or a greasy fry-up.

 

[SilverUchiha]

Hold up a moment... so... you're telling me... that... Oreo has the ability to make multiple colors of creme for their oreos and they AREN'T selling them? They so just lost my business.

OT: Companies can do as they please and support what they want. In most cases, they are not bound by religious practices or law (to an extent) when it comes to PR moments like this. People get mad about it, just makes those people look stupid for not realizing that and for the irrational hatred they spew out of their face-holes...

... Okay, so where's my damn rainbow cookie?

 

[Issurru]

Godzilla Like SNIP

But if I CAN eat that cookie, maybe I can gain its powers and defeat the tyrannical Godzilla! Huzzah!
