OK Boomer - BMW Apologizes for say this
« on: November 22, 2020, 12:22:04 PM »
When a large majority of your customers are Baby boomers, is it a good idea to insult them? A long time customer told BMW to go back to making BMW's and the response was:

OK, Boomer.

And what’s your reason not to change?


And now they're apologizing.   :-\

This is what happens when you put Millennial's in charge of your PR department. The go back to making BMW's response was in regards to the new BMW iX electric crossover.

As in, to stop being political?  Is BMW involved in woke ad campaigns as well?

The comment was in redards to the 2022 BMW iX, an electric crossover which in many ways is a drastic change for BMW.  Both the interior and exterior are bland and not sexy enough to be a BMW.  Their customers agree with me.  BMW is playing damage control trying to imply anyone who doesn't love the iX is an old fashioned Baby boomer who's not keeping up with the times.  It's a dangerous game to play.  Especially insulting baby boomers who have been life long customers.  I predict this will not end well, but i"m enjoying the shit show.

What affect will autonomous driving have on the ultimate driving machine?  Time will tell.

The bland and simple interior of the iX.  All electric crossovers will be the same in the future.

If you think all cars look the same now.  Just wait for the electric crossovers coming five years from now.   You won't be able to tell them apart.

Exactly.

I get this meme a lot when I make comments on YT.  It's getting a bit old.  I missed being a boomer by 2 years.

BMW's head designer talks about the design.  BMW understands this vehicle is huge divergence from their current design.  BMW customers don't like any radical change.  When the 7 series came out with the “Bangle Butt” in 2001, customers were not happy.  This is basically the Bangle butt applied to the whole car.

When the 2001 BMW 7 series came out the rear design was a very controversial change.

Who the fuck is Bmw trying to appeal to? People that are woke that aren’t customers of theirs?

Their current designs are hideous

Exactly, brother.

Change to what, anyway? A person who conforms to how society now is? I’ll pass. The world is SO fucked as of 2020, it’s like Clown World.

Soon I’ll be 51. Old? Sure. But it’s worth it to be old now to have been young then. When a degree of sanity, decency and standard still existed.

BMW can take a leap.

On TV, every commercial promoting some sitcom has its feature episode spew yet more Wokeness bullshit. The other day I saw one for a Dindu offering. The character says something like, “Why was he shot?”, and the response?

“He’s a black man in America.”

So pushing a fake narrative and promoting division is what now passes for comedy?

I’m not changing.

I changed dramatically in my 30s when I began to realize and recognize the LibJoo Agenda.

Everything it paints me to be, a racist, sexist, xenophobic, nationalist, supremacist, and much more, I am, proudly.

I have my brains and my balls.

Fuck the world.

Hail and kill.

Superbly stated, my brother.  Especially so that which I emphasized above. I could not have said that any better myself.  Well done indeed, brother!

Barack Obama created an entire generation that will be nothing more than Uber or Lyft drivers.

So it’s best they shut the fuck up and deliver the food I ordered or they won’t get their $3 tip.

Its almost comical how ghey the world really is these days. Every kunt apologizing about this or that. Every SJW-Libturd attacking someones beliefs.
No one can have their own thoughts/feelings, its all:

Stop the hate
Say no to racism
black lives matter
Trump bad, Raping Joe- Good  ::)

(Stop telling people what to do and how to think, doesnt work when it comes from brain dead lefty-kuntz).  ::)

Like Fortress said, still plenty of 40-50+ year old's who wont change, and may even have fun fukking with these new-age clowns in public.
It can and does get comical. "Hey wheres your mask"??  "On your Fathers twat" shit like that.

BMW / Mercedes designs suck after 2006 for all models except maybe S class and series 6 and 7.
