Campbell's is now my favourite soup. FACT

EDIT- IT HAS JUST BEEN POINTED OUT TO ME THAT THIS IS NOT IN FACT A TRUE RESPONSE FROM CAMPBELL SOUPS ALAS - TIS A JOKE.

IT IS STILL A BURN TO ALL THOSE HOMOPHOBIC NITWITS OUT THERE BUT I SUPPOSE IF I THOUGHT PROPERLY ABOUT IT A CORPORATION WOULD HAVE TO HAVE SOME SERIOUS SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY TO ACTUALLY DO THIS.... SO PLEASE ENJOY IT FOR WHAT IT IS. A RATHER LOVELY JOKE RATHER THAN AN ACTUAL REAL THING

7. To coin a Vietnam antiwar phrase:BURN BABY BURN

Blaze of Glory: the grand tradition of burning the American flag
Donald Trump has tweeted that he wants to jail anyone who sets fire to the stars and stripes. But this act of protest has a special place in US history.



Jimi Hendrix did not need a match to burn the American flag. All he needed to desecrate Old Glory was an electric guitar. When Hendrix started to play the national anthem at Woodstock in 1969, the audience must have been baffled. Patriotic bullshit, man! But as he played The Star-Spangled Banner, he distorted it to produce increasingly painful, harsh and violent sounds. The Vietnam war and the dissonance of a US at odds with itself throb in the surreal chaos Hendrix makes of a song written in 1813 to express love of the flag:

O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave

O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

14. If there is no such thing as the right to burn flag

there is no such thing as the right to display it.

25. A country that does not allow the burning of the flag...

will soon begin to burn people.

23. Trump wants flag-burners jailed and to lose citizenship? What about flag humpers?

26. Not Anti War, the Watts Rebellion in 1965

"Burn, baby! Burn!", a slogan attributed to the 1960s R&B disc jockey Magnificent Montague, which became associated with the 1965 Watts Riots

Burn Baby Burn is a poem by American poet Marvin X, X wrote the poem shortly after the Watts Rebellion in 1965 to convey the oppression black people faced in white America.

3. Ad from 2015 - Campbell's did not respond in this way (always check snopes is seems too good to be)

It was a fake account set up by two comedians

11. Damn It! I so enjoyed the reply.

[demmiblue]

19. No kidding.

People should check the veracity of these random images before posting.

9. Corporate would never have included the final sentence

Probably would have forbade the whole post, but certainly the reference to the person's cold, dead heart.

10. Love it- the reply, not the soup so much

I like the mushroom soup with a toasted cheese sandwich.

12. I figured it was fake, but it is still a great response!

Love is but a song to sing
Fear's the way we die
You can make the mountains ring
Or make the angels cry
Though the bird is on the wing
And you may not know why

Come on people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another
Right now

[kag]

13. Me too, Stonepounder.

I knew a real CS Dept. wouldn't respond that way.

It was still funny.

[crazytown]

15. Shameful

Recc'ing a fake story from 2015, called out as fake, from the third response onwards. Exit, stage left.

[sandensea]

16. Mmm, mmm - good!

[IronLionZion]

18. It was written by two comedians, Ben Palmer and Nick Price

not Campbells, but still totally awesome

[Moral Compass]

20. Wow

Is this for real?

Can’t imagine that Campbell’s would really let a CS representative mouth off like that.

[demmiblue]

21. No. n/t

22. This might be fake, but the Wendy's Twitter is real, and often hilarious
