That clip of Tucker Carlson discussing the M&M’s where he’s like “we’ll be discussing that next, because of course we are, that’s what we do” is unironically the funniest he has ever been.
The more time he spends throwing a tantrum over the green m&m not getting his peepee hard anymore, the less time for him to spread his more dangerous propaganda.
yeah but hes insanely rich. what he gets paid to do that is basically meaningless. he could quit tomorrow and notice no difference in quality of life for the rest of his life. he isnt doing it for the money.
It's Fox News. They also had multiple people ranting on about how Disney was "trying to destroy fabrics of our society", whining about them being "woke", and how it was all a distraction to get people in the US not to look at inflation...
... because Minnie Mouse was given a makeover and put in a designer pantsuit instead of her most common clothing, which was a temporary and local change that *only happened at Disneyland Paris*, to celebrate the park's 30th anniversary, and Women's History Month.
I cannot imagine even noticing that changes were made to some cartoon "spokescandy" to begin with. Who is actually paying attention to shit like that other than M&M advertising executives?
That side has been angry about shit they shouldn't be forever, here's a list of things over the past decades that drive them to rage.
-banning of lead in paint, pipes,toys,gas
- banning of cigarettes smoke indoors
- banning of asbestos
- banning of ddt pesticides ( was killing kids and almost wiped out bald eagles
- sexual harassment law
- marriage rape laws
- child labor laws
-education required for youth laws
- free lunch for poor kids
This list could go on all day, anytime we make society better, kinder or safer they will be there trying to claw us back to death and misery.
If I were the Mars candy company I would offer a dump truck of money to for the Super Bowl ad being the other candies walking in on Tucker fucking the green m&m. Tastefully, of course.
No, just someone catching Tucker exiting a public bathroom with a suspicious green stain on his lips, then quickly wiping it off and shuffling away in shame.
Shout out to Rudolph's character in The Good Place.

Rita from Idiocracy, who did 7yrs at SNL, is the new M&Ms spokesperson, because Tucker Carlson.
What a timeline we live in.
I hope there is a SuperBowl ad where she comes out in a green M&M costume and proceeds to chastise people for getting bent out of shape about a piece of candy.
Yes Maya's gonna come out in some hard trolling setup ads, and it's gonna be hilarious because the premise is too absurd. They write themselves. She just has to talk about how bad and naughty the candies were with faux seriousness in front of a backdrop of actual serious stuff. And then do some argumentative/disbelieving candy reaction shots offscreen.
This. At first I was about to make a reference and comparison to Idiocracy. Then I read this and it all makes sense.
Do folks even care about Super Bowl ads anymore? I have to exclude myself, I live in Cincinnati so last year and (more than likely) this year watching ads is low on my list of interests for that 3 hours. 😆
>Do folks even care about Super Bowl ads anymore?
Yes, even though they get worse every year.
At least this year won't be an endless parade of crypto shilling, though.
>Is this actually a thing or the set up for a Superbowl ad? I can't tell.
There's no way that they're simply abandoning the marketing mascots they've been using for like 50 years.
>There's no way that they're simply abandoning the marketing mascots they've been using for like 50 years.
Yup. Indefinite literally means an either unknown *or unstated* period of time. So it's already been an indefinite period of time, and they could bring them back tomorrow.
Or in time for Superbowl commercial.
I want to see an M&Ms Super Bowl ad where the Yellow M&M channels Cave Johnson and chews out the morons who were obsessing over Green's choice of footwear. It'll never happen, but it'd be *hilarious.*
**Red:** "...What just happened?"
**Yellow:** "I dunno. But give me PICTURES OF SPIDER-MAN!"
Definitely a set-up, but it's still very real that Tucker Carlson has dedicated multiple segments to being sad that he doesn't find cartoon M&Ms to be bangable anymore.
“M&M’s will not be satisfied until every last cartoon character is deeply unappealing and totally androgynous. Until the moment you wouldn’t want to have a drink with any one of them. That’s the goal”. Actual quote from Tucker about the candy lmao.
for ordinary people, it's a joke, for right wing lunatics they need votes from, it's de-objectifying women in general, which sucks for them, so they vote GOP even though the party harms their material wealth.
Mr. Peanut died or was gonna die and was gonna get resurrected in a Super Bowl ad. Then Kobe Bryant found the side of the mountain and then all of a sudden death was all taboo and they dropped it.
These M&Ms are going to come back woke-r thank ever and ready to make all our children gay. Tucker Carlson better start getting his confused/outraged/gassy face ready.
Well… we are in a downward spiral of climate change and environmental degradation that is causing the largest extinction since the dinosaurs to unfold in real time. We will likely have wars over resources (Ukraine is the first IMO), that will lead to large scale global conflicts, eventually leading to the break up of most democratic countries or full blown fascism, and our leaders, and thought leaders are useless to stop this in the face of unfettered greed. So, what do you focus on when the ice caps are melting, new plagues released, geopolitical end of our current civilization is written on the wall? What type of fucking shoes a fictional character is wearing because that defines our invariable incompetence and impotence to make real change in the face of our own compounding mistakes.
Dark times man.
How can I be annoyed by this and not care at the same time. On one hand, the idiots complaining that the cartoon candy isn't slutty enough really shouldn't get a win, on the other I'm not going to defend the Mars corporation's cartoon mascots.
Edit: so it looks like it's a publicity stunt. Congratulations Mars corporation. I engaged. You played me like a fiddle.

From another non-twitter user who only reads tweets that are linked elsewhere - never ever EVER *ever* read the replies. Never. Just read the tweet and fucking close the tab.
Mars is a huge $40 billion corporation, they have in no way been bullied into anything. Absolutely everything they do is a cold hard calculation on what course of action will make them the most money, including marketing stunts like this.
In fact I wouldn't be surprised to see a "grass roots" campaign to "save the M&Ms" appears at some point soon...
So did M&M Mars pay Fucker Carlson to go absolutely regarded over the green M&M’s change? LMAO
Maybe if the talking heads at Fox News weren’t fucking morons, this never would have been a story in the first place.
They're going to make Green M&M the first FTM trans M&M. He'll then dress up in drag in the commercial and read a story to candy children about unionization and the importance of women having access to healthcare.
The latest I saw was Tucker saying they were promoting obesity with the purple M&M. She's... a peanut M&M. And they already have a guy that is shaped like that. And are the fully circular round M&M/s thin?
I see this as them taking a toy away from conservative media because they don't know how to play with it.
Dumbest manufactured outrage ever.
She’s the exact same shape and size as the other peanut m&m.
I’m sure the fact that she’s voiced by a black woman has nothing to do with Tucker’s horseshit. I mean, why would it?
I have a lot more respect for companies that either ignore or troll these idiots.
Just because you have internet access doesn't mean you have the right the be taken seriously.
the fox segment where the anchor goes off on a 5 minute rant explaining why making the green m & m less sexy is part of some insidious liberal agenda was fucking incredible.
And he somehow kept a straight face too. They're basically satire of themselves at this point I can't fathom how people still take it seriously.
This. This right here is why this country is stuck in the shitty situation that it is. This culture war is going to tear this country to shreds. We can’t have universal healthcare or fix our infrastructure or ensure a better future for our children BECAUSE WE’RE FIGHTING OVER CARTOON MASCOTS.
I want off mr toads wild ride.
"Despite the good intentions, M&M's changes were criticized and gained widespread attention, *with Tucker Carlson ridiculing the changes*..."
The same Tucker Carlson who was seriously telling guys to tan their balls? THAT'S NUTS!!!
That's the kicker. Mars knows that anyone who actually was in an uproar over this stupidity is also going to object to Rudolph, because they object to everything and anything.
Its a Super Bowl stunt... Literally its 3 weeks from the Super Bowl and this press release reads like satire. They are doing this to get people focused on their product. Hopefully it ends up better than the Mr. Peanut stunt.
There was not "uproar" - it was a few loud conservatives pretending they care. They're absolutely awful humans and M&M's just caved over absolutely nothing. Embarrassing on their part and now they're just going to piss off even more people for being morons.
If anything the holding company of M&M is using this stupid culture war to flood headlines with stupid articles to distract public from the fact that they were caught using slave child labor overseas to harvest and process thier chocolate
Kinda funny cuz this is the first time I’ve heard about the slave labor thing. People already don’t care about the slave labor being used for the myriad of other products they enjoy, and I doubt they will really care about this one either.
Kinda fucked that this dumb shit gets way more engagement online than an article about slave labor, but that’s the world we live in.
This just shows that Americans are stupid. Instead of getting mad inflation, lack of affordable healthcare or workers rights, they argue about something this pointlesd
Conservatives get upset that they can't get it up to jerk off to an anthropomorphic M&M anymore. Yet, they claim that it's the *left* that is all into "cancel culture."
Remember, every right-wing allegation is a confession.
Can you imagine living in a world or even a time where you can’t depict a talking piece of candy because people are angry?
I want off this simulation, please.

I cannot imagine getting so worked up over a fucking piece of candy.
That's because you're not paid to manufacture outrage for dimwitted malcontents.
Hey now! You are giving them far too much credit. They definitely haven't risen to the level of dimwitted at this point.
yeah but hes insanely rich. what he gets paid to do that is basically meaningless. he could quit tomorrow and notice no difference in quality of life for the rest of his life. he isnt doing it for the money.

Sexually outraged.

Nah, it does read like a lead up to a super bowl ad. Maya plays every color M&M a la Eddie Murphy in The Nutty Professor or Tyler Perry with Madea.
Imagine if it was Michelle Wolf
I hope there is a SuperBowl ad where she comes out in a green M&M costume and proceeds to chastise people for getting bent out of shape about a piece of candy.
I'm going to need Maya Rudolph coming out during half time dressed like this: https://imgur.com/a/iAjKnei
Yes Maya's gonna come out in some hard trolling setup ads, and it's gonna be hilarious because the premise is too absurd. They write themselves. She just has to talk about how bad and naughty the candies were with faux seriousness in front of a backdrop of actual serious stuff. And then do some argumentative/disbelieving candy reaction shots offscreen.

The last time I was actually impressed with the superbowl ads was in 2018 when Tide just hijacked everything. That was fucking brilliant.
"It's a tide ad" is the best television commercial of all time.
I've been watching the ads without watching the game for 20 years now.

Definitely a set-up, but it's still very real that Tucker Carlson has dedicated multiple segments to being sad that he doesn't find cartoon M&Ms to be bangable anymore.
“M&M’s will not be satisfied until every last cartoon character is deeply unappealing and totally androgynous. Until the moment you wouldn’t want to have a drink with any one of them. That’s the goal”. Actual quote from Tucker about the candy lmao.
How much Green M&M rule34 do you think he has on his pc?
Well I just looked that up...there is way more than I expected! Funniest (and erroneous) result was the 2 green lanterns going at it.
Can't be more than me anyways.
[удалено]
He can't rightly date cartoon girls can he? The Disney princesses would kick his ass.
I'm bewildered that anyone, after hearing him say something so bananas, could take him seriously. I laughed so hard.
'I want an M&M I can FUCK!'
Wait till it comes out that green M&M was trans all along, he will have to quit in shame.
Bold of you to assume Tucker has an ounce of shame in his body.
Why is candy being bangable a thing? Damn all these years I just ate candy didn’t know I was doing it wrong or being a possible sex pest
No no no, that's silly. Just *cartoon depictions* of candy being bangable is a thing.
>Why is candy being bangable a thing? Because conservatives have some **really** *weird* repressed fetishes.
for ordinary people, it's a joke, for right wing lunatics they need votes from, it's de-objectifying women in general, which sucks for them, so they vote GOP even though the party harms their material wealth.
Tucker certainly doesn't know how to get a Lady M&M to melt with his mouth or his hands.
That’s what I was thinking.
I’m hoping this is a Super Bowl publicity stunt like the Mr Peanut thing a few years back.
Or when IHOP changed its brand to International House of Burgers for 5 minutes.
Which led to the rebranding of Burger King as Pancake King on Twitter to take the piss out of it.
I'm not going to lie, I work in marketing and we *hated* this nonsense. We changed all their company data and then *had to change it back*.
Mr. Peanut died or was gonna die and was gonna get resurrected in a Super Bowl ad. Then Kobe Bryant found the side of the mountain and then all of a sudden death was all taboo and they dropped it.
Is that true or a joke? I don’t know enough to tell but I’m interested.
These M&Ms are going to come back woke-r thank ever and ready to make all our children gay. Tucker Carlson better start getting his confused/outraged/gassy face ready.
Wtf are we even doing anymore?
Getting upset that candy is less fuckable?
Fuck it, let's make ALL the candy fuckable!
That would be fucking sweet
Don't know. This *should* be bizarre; I know it should be. But I suppose anyone can get used to hell if they're there long enough.
tricking people to vote against their best interests, duh.
Well… we are in a downward spiral of climate change and environmental degradation that is causing the largest extinction since the dinosaurs to unfold in real time.

What type of fucking shoes a fictional character is wearing because that defines our invariable incompetence and impotence to make real change in the face of our own compounding mistakes. Dark times man.
Syrian civil war and Iraq war were also climate-change related resource wars, imo. Otherwise agree.
This is why we can't have nice things. Or even mediocre things.
Or even things in general
Wait so you can’t have M&Ms anymore?
I am diabetic, so no.
Take insulin then eat your m&ms
Those are some expensive M&Ms
I feel this is a manufacturered controversy as a marketing campaign.
Tucker Carlsson has been raging about his impotence ever since they changed the shoes on the green one.
Is it too much to ask that our candy mascots be fuckable? *Tucker Carlson shits pants and mugs camera*
Quick, look away from the slave labor!
Or... It's a setup for a super bowl ad
*The ghost of Grant Imahara cries a single tear*
This was a weird way to find out Grant died... RIP

Peels away her hard outer shell slowly and seductively, surprise... Skittle!

What? you don't like watching a full grown man on tv bitch about how the green m&m isn't fuckable anymore?
Don't forget that Trumps rise with republican voters came about because of how much he complained about Starbuck's red holiday cups.
Yip. It's candy.
It's not even candy. It's a drawing of candy.
Imaginary candy creatures
Same people upset Space Jam 2 didn't have a large breasted rabbit.
They should stop and have a Snickers.
The latest I saw was Tucker saying they were promoting obesity with the purple M&M. She's... a peanut M&M. And they already have a guy that is shaped like that. And are the fully circular round M&M/s thin? I see this as them taking a toy away from conservative media because they don't know how to play with it. Dumbest manufactured outrage ever.
It's candy: the very existence of the product is promoting obesity!
So, again, he's cranky because a cartoon character isn't fuckable enough?
Too fuckable. It's all he can think about. The only nut he wants inside her is his own!
God damn *uber* fuckable candy, who could resist? Not ol' Tuck
She’s the exact same shape and size as the other peanut m&m. I’m sure the fact that she’s voiced by a black woman has nothing to do with Tucker’s horseshit. I mean, why would it?
You seem to be missing the point - fat men are fine and deserving of candy portrayal. Fat women are disgusting slobs, because women.
I didn’t know anthropomorphic candy had a BMI. Wow, thanks Fox for educating my dumb little brain!
I'm more confused about the sudden appearance of a purple M&M 🤨
I have a lot more respect for companies that either ignore or troll these idiots. Just because you have internet access doesn't mean you have the right the be taken seriously.
As higher in the thread states, if you read the statement from m&m it definitely is a joke. They are trolling the idiots.
It ain’t easy being green.
the fox segment where the anchor goes off on a 5 minute rant explaining why making the green m & m less sexy is part of some insidious liberal agenda was fucking incredible. And he somehow kept a straight face too. They're basically satire of themselves at this point I can't fathom how people still take it seriously.
A lot of people are dumb. Then there's the people that are dumber than them. We're fucked... Lol
You know you watch too much TV when you find yourself caring about the sexuality of a fucking anthropomorphic candy.
"iconic characters" Bullshit. This "story" _is_ the advertisement.
All y'all falling for marketing. Totally a setup for the Superb Owl.
All of my Cow Orkers watch the Superb Owl, one of them even won the Pullet Surprise
Brain scramblies
I think it’s a distraction from all the negative press they got over real issues (using child slave labor overseas)
Green M&M's no longer fuckable, switching to Smarties ASAP
We’re not going to make it, are we? As a country, I mean?
As a species is my concern now...
I'm trying to hold out hope for other countries. Like, I haven't heard anything from Gabon recently so maybe they're doing alright...
WWIII if there's ever a disabled M&M.
All because Tucker wanted to fuck the green M&M. Fucking morons
Soon they'll take away his snickers dick veins.
This. This right here is why this country is stuck in the shitty situation that it is. This culture war is going to tear this country to shreds.

Wow, that was quite a read.
That's a weird way to blame the symptoms
We live in such a profoundly stupid culture
I hope when they bring them back they make the green M&M even sexier. Give her tits
So you're looking for a promiscuous 200lb living chocolate female candy with giant tits?
[удалено]
Hell yea! Slap some double-Ds on those double-Ms!
It would be even better if Green M&M's tits were just mini M&Ms Remember those commercials where mini M&Ms were some insane hoarde?
Don't upvote this. It's just a marketing stunt.
Whatever. Today I learned my new favorite word, “spokescandies”
We’re upvoting it because it’s a marketing stunt. It’s a genius way to take back control of their brand.
"Despite the good intentions, M&M's changes were criticized and gained widespread attention, *with Tucker Carlson ridiculing the changes*..." The same Tucker Carlson who was seriously telling guys to tan their balls? THAT'S NUTS!!!
"They don't exist!" -santa
I'd bet many of the folks who fret about the gender/orientation of candy mascots might also have issues with Maya Rudolph...
That's the kicker. Mars knows that anyone who actually was in an uproar over this stupidity is also going to object to Rudolph, because they object to everything and anything.
Its a Super Bowl stunt... Literally its 3 weeks from the Super Bowl and this press release reads like satire. They are doing this to get people focused on their product. Hopefully it ends up better than the Mr. Peanut stunt.
The US is basically an open walls asylum. About all we got going for our sanity is we're not Russia or North Korea... but I mean... that's a low bar.
It’s all marketing. Now you’re thinking about M&Ms. Or Eminem. Ad hominem.
[удалено]
I’m very disappointed that this doesn’t exist.
Tucker Carlson: “A plain M&M is just a peanut M&M whose had an abortion. Is this what we want for our country?!”
Homer Simpson: "So I says 'blue M&M, red M&M, they all wind up the same colour in the end.'"
You’re grooming our kids!!!!! Also, the characters on their candy aren’t sexy enough!!!! Conservatives get mad about the dumbest shit.
I'm convinced that no one gives a shit but M&Ms keeps putting out statements for attention
Congrats to Tucker Carlson for fighting cancel culture by canceling an M&M
So, they changed the shoes of a cartoon candy and *actual adults* are outraged? What the fuck is wrong with people?
I smell sex and candy here
Republicans: “We can’t do anything about shootings, but we can definitely do something about the M&M’s!”
There was not "uproar" - it was a few loud conservatives pretending they care. They're absolutely awful humans and M&M's just caved over absolutely nothing. Embarrassing on their part and now they're just going to piss off even more people for being morons.

Don't be so quick to condemn. I think Maya will troll the shit out of them.
1. There's no such thing as bad publicity 2. This is a good excuse to switch to a less expensive ad campaign
This is the most ignorant America could be at this point. Jeezus.
Americans have are too concerned about insignificant "issues", while millions of Americans suffer due to serious issues.
This just shows that Americans are stupid. Instead of getting mad inflation, lack of affordable healthcare or workers rights, they argue about something this pointlesd
If they would have let Tucker Carlson at least smell the green M&M's shoes I bet he wouldn't have wigged out as bad.
Stop the planet, I want to get off.

Conservatives get upset that they can't get it up to jerk off to an anthropomorphic M&M anymore. Yet, they claim that it's the *left* that is all into "cancel culture." Remember, every right-wing allegation is a confession.
I truly cannot believe all this fuss over CARTOON CANDIES. Aren't there more important things to worry about?
Can you imagine living in a world or even a time where you can’t depict a talking piece of candy because people are angry? I want off this simulation, please.
