The shaving brand Gillette has launched a new campaign in response to the Me Too movement. The video urges men to hold each other to a higher standard and to step up when they see fellow men acting inappropriately towards women. The video has received intense criticism on social media with many men calling for a boycott of the brand

The idiots boycotting Gillette will be the same ones buying Vicks cough drops for their winter cough and Charmin for their wiping needs.

They won't boycott. They'll buy in bulk, set the box on fire, and post the video to YouTube.

Well, technology is a glittering lure. But there’s the rare occasion when the public can be engaged on a level beyond flash, if they have a sentimental bond with the product.

Even better, why not work in a steel mill where the heat will melt the extra hair off for you and you can have a real man's job at the same time.

I wonder when the "Toxic" will be dropped and it will just be #Masculinity.

Won’t be long. The APA already pivoted to “traditional” to replace toxic.

Bhalla and Gillette are also making the sound bet that a progressive-leaning marketing strategy will pay dividends. Many brands have commodified wokeness with great success: Nike’s revenues leapt after unveiling its campaign starring Colin Kaepernick, Patagonia posted massive sales after directly attacking President Trump, and in Gillette’s own shaving space, Harry’s has made reconsidering masculinity a central tenet of its advertising. And while what’s capturing headlines this morning is the intense backlash from conservative men, plenty of people have tweeted their support for the ad. Gillette’s new commercial isn’t pure marketing, either: the brand also pledged to donate $3 million over the next three years to nonprofits, starting with the Boys and Girls Club of America. (Whether we can rely on brands to move the discourse forward remains an open question.)


Well, I'll answer your question: the answer is no. P&G is using women's pain to sell shaving supplies. That's all, really.

Oh man that last sentence. Can’t think of one that incapsulates that classic Hollywood/corporate shitlib mentality more.

Dollar Shave Club likes to provide weird takes on poop for your reading pleasure.

A different approach.

It's the "in conclusion, Libya is a land of contrasts" of the entertainment-journalism-marketing complex.

P&G revenue from 2018 was over 66 Billion dollars. Donating one million dollars a year for three years is nothing to them. I mean good on them but
it is almost next to nothing for a company of that size.

I'm not really sure what Carlson thinks. In any case, he's a talking head on Fox. I wouldn't call him a great thinker or intellectual.

Eric Weinstein is definitely an intellectual (((A Really Smart Guy™))) and I would say this is a pertinent question for the Friedmanistas who worship at the altar of free markets:
