I had to watch the youtube and then scroll down to about the 20th comment to figure out what you're talking about.

So I'm gonna say no

What was the comment? Wondering if we are talking about the same thing.

The commercial where they're in a stadium?

If so, I would say no.

It would be still a racist commercial or at least classism at its finest. You have a man in a suit sitting down while ONE hard working employee (who happens to be a black male) passing out $500 to every seat in the stadium, alone. That is indecent labor. Even just a simple commercial its portraying the realities of America. While the employee is clearly showing signs of fatigue and frustration. The man in the suit is laid back chilling while his "worker" is doing all the work.

Clearly racist, sexist, classist, and stadiumist.

 

[DiStefano]

Yes, they need to change their name to H&R Black. Then it would be ok.

 

[Slapdash]

No, but they are certainly annoying.

No, but they are certainly annoying.

What's that work out to, about $5-10 per taxpayer?

You wanna talk about racist tax commercials, how about the ones from Jackson Hewitt promoting their "MONEY NOW!" scam, where every client just happens to be African-American??

"Go to Jackson Hewitt and get your MONEY NOW!"

"I got my money now! You should go get yours too!"

It's about time to put an expiration date on the race card...let's wrap it up gents...it's lost all credibility...

Well, it is the business model of these places...

The same people would be calling it racist if it was two white guys. Saying the commercial didn't have enough diversity. Give me a break.
