Why would m&m do such stupid marketing?

[strateguy632]

we have long forgotten last years marketing attempt.

consider m&m wants to make everyone feel included, kinda like trump included gay in cabinet first ever, but with that goal they EXCLUDED MEN in January 2023.

why would they exclude men?

also

but excluded men?

only the female characters, ms. green female since 1990s, ms. brown, brown since 1940s n ms. brown around 2012. excluding men... so much for inclusion!

why would they exclude men?

[SolitarySolace]

They exclude men because they only care about women. They don’t care about men’s issues and there are more men’s issues than women’s issues. Women’s issues are just causing more issues for men

[LiamJHayden]

It is idiotic to go out and alienate part of the customer base. The Marketing Director should be fired.

you deserve A+ in reading comprehension. i dunno what other people thought they were reading!

White men usually are excluded from most things these days

[strateguy632]

exactly compare old pictures of sports teams to recent teams. how many whites on nfl ny giants? maybe 2?

[Likes2drive]

Yeah but they can’t compete with how athletic the other players are or maybe they just aren’t interested those sports as they used to be, years ago but they seem out number in ice hockey and NASCAR 😊

[strateguy632]

but wait... jobs "reserve places jobs" for diversity... but no jobs for whites relative to population. nfl not diversity!

[Likes2drive]

Yeah it’s seems to have reversed now

[andreasderjuengere]

If they were indeed supporting women's ideas... why aren't there any oversized M&M's?
Do I feel excluded? - yes, my self confidence is utterly shattered because I get no attention from chocolate.

[strateguy632]

not ignored everyone, excluded men.

[strateguy632]

like when a movie is all white stars people panic excluded blacks, or all men stars, people panic, excluded women, here excluded men.

[Cheapskate]

They are an corporation, their only value is making money. That makes them an easy mark for whatever social movement is ascendant.

[strateguy632]

that is backwards! social movement doesn't cause profit? "mark" sounds like the social movement targeted the company?

[laly520]

tryna profit from whatever it takes

[strateguy632]

but they lose profit, all the male customers who they excluded, to attract women who avoid high fat chocolate and high sugar m&ms?
