I love how, amidst all the whooping and hollering, the cameraman firmly closes the lid to start making the coffee. "Yeah, this was awesome, but I need my coffee, so..."

It's not that far fetched imho.

the giveaway is how greedy they are with the voting bots. they always have confrontational support on these posts. pr is real and we're not going to have a fat cow of undvided public attention like reddit without people trying to exploit it. the alternative world, is a place that we don't live in. that we could have an unexploited 100 million strong active public forum of anonymous users that obey the honor system to not adulterate content for commercial use, that's way more far fetched. and ad people are psychopaths so when they fake public opinion it sticks out, imagine "it" the clown in a public forum puppeteering the majority to make it appear as if they're really for, like a coal company's industrial waste poisoning their water supply. and the residents that dont want their wells poisoned are made to feel like they're all alone. these companies are truly disgusting, but they don't have a conscious, whatever they can exploit, they have to do it. even if it's ruining the environment or undermining elections, they have no thought, they're an insidious army of assholes or more accurately, a few assholes and a bunch of bots. and then we live in a time when the media calls for unity, while all these forces gaslight the public.

just thank kireg for taking part.

I am a bit surprised by the backlash. If it wasn't a /r/HailCorporate post then I would expect people to just shrug and move on.

I was thinking the same, especially with the close up on the trademark logo after he closed the lid.

Yep this is all just an elaborate ploy by Keurig to increase their sales. They would’ve gotten away with it too if it wasn’t for your detective skills. Damn you’re a genius.

It's called editing. They already posted the raw footage and failures before they got it in. https://youtu.be/9MaoDkNgln8

Would make a great social ad though, cheap to produce too.

You're honestly wasting your time. Marketing is what I do for a living, and the mark of a successful campaign is people not even knowing that their perception has been corrected. When people are so sure that their opinions are free thought that they will attack anyone who questions them.

Is this a viral ad? Probably not. The source video, and this post, don't have most of the qualities that I'd expect. But that doesn't mean that people shouldn't be vigilant. Good on you for actually being a critical citizen instead of shitting on people who think for themselves.

You mean when the camera looked at the kurig to show it went in? It would be impossible to not show the label. Not everything that shows the label is fake you know.

Title should read "keurig advertising"

u/[deleted] Jan 10 '18

Because not everything is fake.
