# I saw the picture. Is it racist because of obama, or the um bongo, or the cow tongue? Because I don't see it.

# So just because he happened to place Um Bongo in a picture of a black man that makes him racist?
It seems innocent enough to me.

# I don't think they actually do
I think that was just a rhyming thing for the cartoon advert in this country

# That seems unlikely
not that I'm interested in policing political correctness, but really I doubt that Um Bongo would have been just as easily substituted by Capri Sun.

# I think I'm misunderstanding...
isn't being racist saying something like 'I don't like black people because they're black'? Or has it changed its meaning to incorporate shopping and animating pictures of people who aren't white?

# Um Bongo was advertised as being drunk in the "Congo", which is in africa.
So voddy took the opinion that octo chose it because Obama is black, rather than it being a lovely juice drink.

# ?
what's wrong with Octo's post?
Who doesn't love Um Bongo? I know I do

Or are you saying that Um Bongo is only drunk by people of specific skin tones?

# if he does mean to be racist, then he's not doing a very good job
if he is being racist then he can fuck right off
but to me it may as well have been a bottle of blue panda pop

p.s. I like the cut out racism image, very simple and visual, could be used for a proper campaign

# they don't drink blue panda pop in the congo though
it's only in china, where they have rivers that are bright blue enough
