The outrage machine found its latest target: Converse.
The company released a bizarre ad featuring K-pop star Karina. Critics claim the white imagery and dangling sneakers resemble a Klan hood and a lynching. It’s a stupid ad. Someone inside Converse should have noticed how it could look before publishing it.
But intentional racism? Give me a break. This was a global campaign built around an Asian superstar and promoted heavily to Asian consumers. I’m not sure the Ku Klux Klan is dominating the Asian sneaker market.
This is what the left does. If they aren’t protesting, boycotting, complaining, or screaming, they’re searching for the next corporate mistake they can weaponize into manufactured outrage.
Today, we expose the outrage industry and the activists who see racism everywhere because their power depends on keeping America divided.
