LOL Greenpeace protests Volkswagen with parody ad

[Human]

THE BORG!


Jedi mind tricks

To protest Volkswagen's decision to oppose CO2 reductions, Greenpeace has launched a campaign which parodies the automaker's critically-acclaimed Super Bowl ad for the 2012 Passat (US-spec).

According to Greenpeace, "VW is at the heart of a group of companies lobbying against new laws which we need to cut CO2 emissions, reduce our oil use and protect places like the Arctic from climate change."

While it's obvious that most of this is just a Jedi mind trick, Greenpeace says "For every 'greener' vehicle VW sells, there are around 15 others which emit much more C02. Volkswagen adds a huge price mark-up for its greener vehicles - way above the cost of the technology - as it tries to cash in on your green conscience."

Yes, Volkswagen is evil. Profits are evil. Volkswagen's EV plans are evil. Volkswagen's plug-in hybrid plans are evil. We're all going to die, because of Volkswagen. Oh, wait, we're still here...

Hmmm. I see so many variations of copyright breaches that I wonder if Lucasfilm gave their permission like they allowed with VW?

But at least they capture the actual reality of VW in the industry right down to Emperor Piech. And his Empire of automotive clones.
Or as many in Munich see him as the german Mr Burns.

Lol, I hate those green campaign ads and everything that go with them with a passion.

Mr Burns or not, VW are smart here. Whenever science advances and finds out the real reason or details to "climate change" VW will have some very deep pockets.

I don't know, i hate Greenpeace, those self righteous bastards with their hidden agendas and dubious methods, but I think even less of the way of VAG - I so hope for the timely demise of the Empire.

Since human activities are the ultimate reason for increases in C02 emissions perhaps those people from Greenpeace can kindly remove themselves from this planet so we can have just a bit more fresh air to pollute.

They just have to go for the easy targets instead of encouraging people to change their lifestyle.
