> IBM and The Amazing Racist
Bookmark topic
This might prove yet again to be controversial for me,but in a commercial that has been getting a good amount of airplay lately in the America, IBM has cast an individual whose characters name is Ari.In the commercial, Ari’s character plays the role of a sort of technical lead type. He then turns to an African American,IBM help desk attendant for advice on prototyping. The interesting thing about Ari is that it appears that Ari’s alternate persona is that of the Amazing Racist. Yes, that’s right, IBM has cast an individual who creates videos of himself making fun of and insulting people of various races and ethnicities.To see for yourself, take a look at a couple of examples of the Amazing Racist’s work.Although it is done in a very lighthearted manner it is offensive to some of the minoritys portrayed,but i could'nt help laughing myself,see what you think.

Apparantly he's jewish himself so he must understand racism first hand...It is a bit extreme for some people's tastes....but i think it just another form of slapstick comedy..be it extreme!

If he hasn't then tut tut! I mean its not like there's no material for it (I can think of a few). Imo it should have been his first sketch! If he can’t take the piss out of his on culture/people then he shouldn’t be taken the piss out of others.
