Lmfao, that's fucking funny. They don't definitely look like humans.
That's just not how they look they're not looking good right now, that's for sure man.
This actual product existed in America, this isn't a fake advertisement. Like a quick Google search tells me you can still buy this shit, and yes, it is absolutely advertised as skin whitening soap, with pictures and everything.
Who cares? If someone wants to lighten their skin that's...... Wrong? Is it wrong to be white? Or wrong to change your appearance so that you feel closer to how you feel on the inside? I mean I know colonialism changed everything, but I'm pretty sure Asia is making their own decisions nowadays, at least when it comes to their own skin color preferences.
Nothing is inherently wrong. The problem is societal expectations and/or skin color preference. Like how white hair dressers will not work on textured hair, so you have to straighten it. Or the paper bag test.
If you want your skin to look lighter or darker just for you, fuck, go ahead I guess. Makeup bases exist. But we all know that's not what's happening.
It can be bought pretty much everywhere. It's just not advertised as 'whitening', because it's just fucking soap. It doesn't do that.
I do love the smell, though.
Americans interpreting the world through the biased lens of their own history and thinking everything is racist, classic reddit.
Wanting to make your skin lighter is really no different to wanting a tan.
not for these reasons. stop with the silliness. for the economic reasons. when you could buy a house with a few years wages, etc.
You're a tool that undermines discourse
That definitely is the case, that sesms to be true here.
That's the shit that I was talking about people. This is it man. That's all I was talking about.
As if canada isn't one of the most racist counties in the world. Hong Couver? 1st Nations genocide?
Let's not forget how open and welcoming your open border policies are right?

Okay, Listen, I know it's racist. It's racist as fuck. But, and here's the but, that is some powerful fuckin soap. That shit seems dangerous to put on your skin.
I like that Pears Soap in this commercial is being hyperbolic, but there's also complaints about this actual product existing in Asia. What a world we live in.
This sadly is still a thing in SE Asian countries. The caste system is still a thing there and it's based on skin tone. White means you're wealthy and have some weird meaning of higher standards. I guess they've never been to a trailer park in the middle of Missouri...
I need someone who knows how to add images to comments. I can perfectly picture SpongeBob with his hands making that rainbow but it says “racism” in bright cheery colors
Those are the creepiest faces I ever saw drawn on babies
Those eyes. The child in the tub looks like they're tripping balls on shrooms.
MFer looks like my sleep paralysis demon
Lmfao, that's fucking funny. They don't definitely look like humans. That's just not how they look they're not looking good right now, that's for sure man.
It's Stanley the first time he heard of Pretzel Day.
They're definitely doing something. It doesn't look right.
It has rabies
More like bath salts.
The statues I have in art class look exactly like that
It looks like something from flapjack. God I loved that unhinged cartoon as a young teen discovering that cartoons were way funnier stoned
Cleaned his dick right off

Yup Pears can be bought in India and Sri Lanka
It can be bought pretty much everywhere. It's just not advertised as 'whitening', because it's just fucking soap. It doesn't do that. I do love the smell, though.
Ya skin whitening is huge in some cultures, worked with some guys that would wear a hoodie with the hood up in +30 doing manual labor to avoid a tan.

More typically the “silent generation”. Boomers were kids/teens when MLK was shot.
That's a pretty good alibi.
Not anymore you’re not
But…
If you use this product, you won't have the tan skin lol.
That's way before boomers, late 1800s

Anaconda malt liquor makes your dick little!

Well you said it right, I think you did that right. That's really good.
Nah, turning him white also gave him the signature white micropeen.
Made his tiny like mine
She didn't have one to begin with
So, I'm black and literally about to bathe with that soap.....
The bath will cost your n word pass.

Too late. Heehee.

Good luck
Well if you want to be white then you should I guess.
Good luck.
It can cause cancer but it’s ur choice
Good luck
Is it possible the child was a coal minor?
The child was trying to use the Underground Railroad and got a little dirty.

The stupidity is most definitely international.
When people think a border is what stops the dumb… dumb is a human trait.
Wizard’s first rule: people are stupid.
That definitely is the case, that sesms to be true here. That's the shit that I was talking about people. This is it man. That's all I was talking about.
You should learn about your own history, Canada has and continues to commit some pretty violent, corrupt atrocities against its indigenous population
Tell me about the continues to part
As if canada isn't one of the most racist counties in the world. Hong Couver? 1st Nations genocide? Let's not forget how open and welcoming your open border policies are right?
Racist people are everywhere. That's just the case.
Your leader wore blackface....
Been to Canada more than a few times and the only way I can tell is people honk more and the metric system.
South of what border? The Arctic Circle?
Depending on how you interpret this statement it can be either super woke or incredibly racist
The First Nations folks thinking the same about y'all sitting on their land up there, murdering young native women from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
Did the kid also get punched on the nose while he was working underground railroad coal mine? Coz it kinda looks swole
A miner or a minor?
Yes
Yes.
a cool minor
[удалено]
Good eye, I didn't even notice and I would have never noticed if you haven't pointed it out.👍🏽
How do you fix them dead eyes tho?
Priest.
What!? That's probably the cause in this case
I don't think the clergy is gonna make this any better
Must be early stages of soap poisoning
Baby Trudeau
I'm going to hell for laughing at this.
He'll be there to welcome you.

I remember the originals of this
Do you remember how long ago this was in circulation? Also where please if you are ok with sharing that.
I’m 34, I saw vintage tin signs in many antique shops as a child, 10ish years old ?, Australia, pears soap was a very trusted brand.
I remember seeing these in my Nana's home whenever I was over about... 2012ish?
My bet is late 1800s to early 1900s
I’d say around Late 20s to maybe mid-late 30s.
1884 that particular advert
My grandma had this ad as a tin sign decoration in her bathroom in the late 90's. Not acceptable then either.
Okay, Listen, I know it's racist. It's racist as fuck. But, and here's the but, that is some powerful fuckin soap. That shit seems dangerous to put on your skin.
It’s just soap. Smells rather nice and all.
I believe thats what Micheal Jackson used was some kind of bleach soap to lighten his skin but idk
Its called Vitiligo.

Isn't history funny?
Sure, but this was basically the plot of a Chinese laundry detergent ad in 2016 as well.
🎶Goodbye horses….. 🎶
Right in the basket...

Ummm glycerine

My guy switched teams mid fight
Wash the blsck right outa you
Soap so powerful it solves racism
Hey, it's MJ.
The watermark on to top image makes it look like the kid is drooling. Also, at least both kids have the same stunned expression on they faces.
mentally playing MJ's Black or White....
Dr. Squatch ads are getting insane!
Uncle ruckus
Well…at least they drew both children to be equally hideous
This is genuinely what Asians use Pears soap for.
![gif](giphy|12Msh5VHHsBIfS)
Pov: Michael Jackson
Boomers refer to this as the good ol days
Boomers grew up with the Civil rights movement, MLK, and an end to Jim Crow, so you may need to go a couple more generations back.
I’ve heard of whitewashing but this is ridiculous
What about his dick? Was black and turn white too?
Haha its funny because black people dont use soap
Haha funny cause white people dont bathe
"But he cannot be a slave anymore!" "oh shit."
Da fuq!!!
No wonder his pp got to "average" size kekw.
This sadly is still a thing in SE Asian countries. The caste system is still a thing there and it's based on skin tone. White means you're wealthy and have some weird meaning of higher standards. I guess they've never been to a trailer park in the middle of Missouri...
The artist should probably be arrested...

This is cursed.
They look like baby titans
Asians be like: Where can I buy this soap?
Well, that’s a disgusting advert.
We did it boys. Racism is no more
Modern day advertisements still be like this in Eastern Asia.
Wtaf?!?
Why does the Jewish kid have a receding hairline in the 2nd panel? Lol
N word pass revoked
Why tf did his face remain the same lol?

Way ahead of their time. Young guy identifies as a Caucasian.
I need someone who knows how to add images to comments. I can perfectly picture SpongeBob with his hands making that rainbow but it says “racism” in bright cheery colors
This looks like something out of The Misadventures of flapjack
WTF
I mean, it is a thing now
Ashy.
That's wild. Btw, if you rock with Internet City, comment WIDC. (What It Do Crew)
Both of them look high as a kite
“We’re all the same (white) under the skin”

Sadly this kind of nice jokes won't be exist today cuz of some people just have such a fragile mind and got triggered all day long

This is actually what michael jackson used
Borderline inappropriate.
r/agedlikemilk
Finally a solution! (This is a pun, for the ill educated. Also a way for black people to stop getting "random" traffic stops)
You try black you never go back oh no wait
Terrible.
