Their latest commercial has the virtue signal set for gay porn. They either have a death wish for the company or they have very carefully studied the demographic that uses their products to market to.

Or the more logical reason is PR got themselves a woke boss that is only hiring woke content creators.

I actually think they produce this trash to actually sacrifice the companies they work for to shove their trash lifestyles down our throats to force them in as mainstream majority.

It's not about product advertisement, it's about ideology push-back.

In case anyone isn't already aware, Fitbit is now owned by Google - they took over on 1/1/2021

I despise that commercial. I cringe every time it comes on.

"If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne

"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24

That large thing in the water acting like it can surf, hilarious. Ain’t happening.

There is an Adidas commercial, and I’ve been wearing their gear for longer than I care to remember, where it’s all about the ladies and how they can do ANY sport. There is a very large woman and it says “powerful athlete” and I’m like ok, if a hot dog eating contest is a sport, sure. But running, jumping, I don’t think so. And then they show another woman with the full headdress on hanging from a rim. Wishful thinking is not reality.

Really? Roll Eyes



Seriously, what do you guys care if FitBit makes a targeted add towards the LGBTQetc folks?

I’ve got a nephew who fits into one of the letters above, I don’t understand it, but I don’t think he’s a freak undeserving of love or acceptance or seeing someone who looks/acts like him being ‘fit’ with a product.

It's the most run commercial that I see and I don't watch regular TV.
I won't comment on my friends or family fitting that description but I'm sick of it. For less than 10% of the population, this commercial runs non-stop on my Roku viewing. Non-fucking-stop! Every break! So while I don't mind my fellow humans, this commercial is really getting me.

It's just a commercial, they're probably not trying to turn the viewer into alphabet soup, although, Google now owns the brand.

I used to have a FitBit device but stopped using it after the Google acquisition, as Google already has more than enough information about me without needing my vitals, step count, and other habits. It also was annoying to have to pay extra money or they'd omit certain data from visibility to the end user.

Plan is to replace the old device with a Garmin at some point.
