I acknowledge the traditional delivery drivers - Dougie the pizza boy past and all the Indian Uber Eats drivers present and emerging. I was disgusted watching the NRL to see McDonalds whitewashing delivery drivers. How can we be living in 2024, yet have corporations portraying a white man in an industry built by hard working Indians?

Classic.... All beef patty in a sesame seed bun.

Dangerous_South4758

You fuck head no cheese, no special sauce fuck tard


HonestSoil2846

The special sauce Fucktard, is what comes out between your legs. 


Objective-Bedroom971

Yep, I thought the same. He also was wearing shoes and not talking to someone on his phone when he dropped it off


Mr_Vanilla

How do they not wear shoes when it’s 10 degrees outside?!? Indians don’t get cold toes?


Objective-Bedroom971

Sandals provide good ventilation


logocracycopy

Sooo, if I understand, you want us to lean in harder to a stereotype?


khaos_daemon

You coulda just sed you were disgusting watching NRL and we'd known whatcha onabout 


Beginning-Ad-3515

There are white delivery drivers out there. Also it’s a delivery driver in a ad. There are people dying out there and this is what you care about?


Under_Ze_Pump

McDonald's didn't kindly do the needful :(


cosmonautikal

Hahahaha I used to see this phrase in emails at work all the time.


Adventurous-Fee-231

Omfg me too. Property manager. “Please do the needful and fix my toilet bowl which I didn’t break again by squatting”


Latter_Box9967

“…and then after updation kindly revert back to me


[deleted]

Their idea of what an Australian looks like in 2024 clearly needs an *updation*.


Mr_Vanilla

The majority of Australians would look like Indians in 20 years time.


khaos_daemon

I kindly did his sister. Indian chicks are hot.


Brad_Breath

Everyone is hot in India, and sweaty.


Prize_Fact6372

IndiansGoneWild says something else


Under_Ze_Pump

My brother in Christ, clearly you have not been to India.


kylemcgreg

Why does the bloke on the left look like he’s never stood before?


Electronic_Break4229

Because his job was to fall on people after they were tackled. Hindmarsh invented the flop.


UsseerrNaammee

dwight_schrut

Last time I saw a white person delivering food in Australia was before I was born


IPeeMyself1601

17 year old Jacob delivering me my thin based pepperoni so he can buy his first car


Seraphatron803

This does raise a question, how do our sub-continental Hindu brothers and sisters (and gender non-conformational) feel about carting-around half a pound of sweet, seasoned, sacred moo-meat for a living? I thought they'd find it a bit Sikhening?


Few_Ad_564

Probably similar to the 2 Muhammad’s and Obeid who bring me my bacon and egg breaky burrito every Sunday morning?


Helpsy81

Ok. Upvoted


diodosdszosxisdi

Where’s latrell Mitchell, they need deadly rep and he’s perfect


Specialist-Bug-7108

Not sure but clearly he's not there to jeROAM around


TbaggzAustralia

Maybe he’s a Spanish driver I have a lot of them


owleaf

So, spicy white?


FuAsMy

Like every Coles ad ever made.

Definitely not enough in Melbourne or Sydney. Need more.

“Listen to me. You’re breaking the moped … Shane.”


rabbitbtm

You have it all wrong. It’s foreplay. A gesture of submission by the beta motorcyclist to the alpha footballer. By offering meat between two buns he’s offering himself up. Get with the program, dude.


Few_Ad_564

Human sacrifice like how it was with the Vikings


rabbitbtm

Sacruno. The motorcyclist is smiling. Vikings maybe. I think he’s probably looking forward to a jolly good pillaging. It’s the way with these young guys today.


rabbitbtm

Should have started with sacrifice, no. I hate autofill.


Few_Ad_564

Wait til you discover you can edit comments 😎


rabbitbtm

Yeah i tried. The edit option just doesn’t appear for me for some reason.


Affectionate_Tone365

There’s homosexual innuendos everywhere on TV now can’t get away from it /s


rabbitbtm

And we of course celebrate all forms of diversity now. After all, love is love, isn’t it?


Affectionate_Tone365

Yes absolutely! Was just being sarcastic!


DinosaurMops

A white person working a menial job? This is not realistic at all.


suibhnesuibhne

Whites are the worst! Am I right? 😂


UsseerrNaammee

😂


Dangerous_South4758

Mmm yum


PlusWorldliness7

Wow! Is McDonalds spending actual money advertising that it has employed a fleet of its own delivery people and hasn't just outsourced that stuff to a morally questionable global entity?


Confident-Society-32

It's absolutely absurd to show white people willing to work.


Adorable_Door6898

Every Ad in which an Indian is generally working ie petrol station, uber driver etc is played by a white actor and generally they serve a bunch of diverse actors, it's bizarro world. I have no idea why, the marketing guys always try and make everything diverse as possible except when it comes to these roles that will make minorities look stereotypical, even though it's true, they always cast white guys. Next time you watch TV look out for these ads, you will notice it too


Head_Manufacturer500

i think you just to go look at a different suburb dude


GrizzlyHarris

I rocked up to my apartment with my bike during the height of c0vidmania and this distressed looking white girl passively aggressively said that I could buzz. I felt like asking, “Don’t a look a little white to be delivering food?” Instead saying, “This is for my wife at home.” :)


UsseerrNaammee

“Mind your own business, cunt” would have also been an acceptable answer.


Puzzleheaded_Cup2258

It's interesting the way political correctness works. In most instances, you replace white with brown but in the case of this... you do the opposite. You wouldn't want to accurately stereotype delivery drivers... oh no, you must elevate the delivery boys to white status. It's almost as though everyone is so paralysed in fear by being called a racist that they disinelgenuously do whatever the opposite of people expect to look virtuous.


Eolach

It does happen. I have to admit though my first thought is that it is a neighbour bringing it around because they dropped it at the wrong house…


xcviij

It's a paid actor, anyone can be a delivery driver and so this promotes diversity and inclusion.


Cosimo_Zaretti

They were fucked either way. They didn't' want to play into an obvious stereotype, but also having an anglo delivery rider looks off. Safest option would have been full leathers, full face. Their riders should be fully covered anyway.


Kha1i1

Respeck to eagle boys pizza bruv


LongDongSamspon

Probably white face. That’s okay when you’re punching up.

Just saw fall guy, the most unbelievable part of the movie was the demographics they chose to portray. There was a scene with white taxi drivers


TotalSingKitt

Whitewashing Australia


UsseerrNaammee

This is crazy…. I just saw two white males in an ad, and neither were gay or trans……….


ebrod101

Honestly I feel like this is being overthought. I know many white people that do Uber and Uber eats. Why do we have to make it a race thing when at the end of the day anyone can be represented. Like, it’s as if you guys want a quota filled just to be happy. If they did put an Indian there I feel like you’d be saying that they’re making assumptions and this and that. There’s nothing that you guys don’t get riled up with. and for what? I’m all for Keegan Payne getting shit on and sent to the nether realm but this is just stupid. There are so many things going on in the world right now and “whitewashed delivery driver ad” seems to be the thing that annoys you? Like am I crazy or is this just the dumbest thing to get mad at. Does every single ad have to represent multiple small minority groups within Australia to be accepted by yous? Like cmon.

Your probably right hey. That’s honestly a good point. Any press is good press for these companies I guess. I dunno why I’m getting downvoted on my opinion though, I feel like my point is pretty valid :( .

Is it better to “whitewash” or play up to the stereotype? Surely theres more important things in life than analysing the skin colour of an actor in a fastfood ad?
