People against miscegenation are currently losing what’s left of their minds after Old Navy did the unthinkable and tweeted an advertisement that depicted an interracial family. Apparently, an ad featuring a white man with his black girlfriend/wife and their son is all part of a greater conspiracy to take down the white race. White genocide, really.
“That’s horrible! What’s wrong with you? Boycotting Old Navy. Not that I wore that crap before,” was one of the responses Old Navy received after they ran their controversial ad on Twitter Friday. The furious Old Navy non-customer said he was boycotting because “your clothes are crap quality and now you’re promoting miscegenation. Disgusting.”
Seriously, somebody tweeted that Old Navy hates white babies for running an ad that features an interracial couple.

And there were many more similarly ridiculous tweets directed towards Old Navy. The store was bombarded with similar sentiments by regressive customers threatening a boycott for promoting mixed marriages, or as one said, a hate crime. “Absolutely disgusting that you are pushing #whitegenocide.” Another doozy of a tweet said the ad was the same as putting white people in gas chambers.

@OldNavy Race-mixing means death to the white race, same as if we were sent to gas chambers.

While Old Navy received their fair share of hate, others applauded the company for promoting diversity.
Hey @OldNavy, my family and I thank you for the diversity in this ad! #LoveWins, no matter the color ❤️ pic.twitter.com/TjgYUPMGu4

Old Navy has yet to comment. Probably because they didn’t think they had to justify featuring an interracial couple on their ads.
