Yesterday in the Daily News I read about an uproar about the new
MadMen subway ad by 9/11 victim groups saying they were insensitive.
Next thing you know people are threatening to boycott AMC and the
products advertised on the network.
Later I heard somebody who said 'to some of us, 9/11 will never
disappear, it will never be something we would make light of'
Hey jackass, nobody here is diminishing that day, this is not a
political statement not is it a depiction of anything related to 9/11
instead it's an ad for a TV show. How come you weren't offended by
the opening credits (which by the way this ad is a depiction of).
Maybe because this is a show set 4 decades before 2002 and anybody who
has seen those credits will tell you it has nothing to do with a
Tuesday in September. It's as if we are now so tied to this bullshit
sensitivity that you can no longer show anybody doing anything without
somebody being offended.
