New Crown Paints advert sparks backlash but company insists it's a bit of fun

A controversial advert branded allegedly ‘‘misogynistic’ and ‘derogatory’ has sparked fury across Lancashire.

“Maybe at the derogatory line of “…Dave just hopes that it’s his.” and then we can dissect Crown Paints 'It's not just paint. It's personal' gaslighting comments where they talk about how light hearted it is!!!” “The social responses from Crown Paints seem to suggest that the majority view is in the wrong and that it was all a bit of fun.” Her comments were backed by many on social media.

In a post on Facebook, Crown Paints, which is based in Darwen, said: “Hannah and Dave’s big news has meant a big change to their previously grey spare room. We believe paint can help you change a room, change a mood and even change a life. That’s why, whether you’re moving into a new home, renovating an old one or welcoming a baby into its new nursery, we’re here for you. For us, it’s not just paint, it’s personal.

Meta's chatbot says the company 'exploits people'The new prototype doesn't think much of the company's CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, either. Lol 😂 and the response about its owner ThaRealMarkZ is hilarious 😂🤣 I've chatted with the bot for an hour, and it is paranoid. It's reading 1984, concerned about polarization in our society, and fearful of a revolution in the US. It also agrees with Trump's policies, while acknowledging he didn't know what he was doing... Unstable AI persona 🤣.
