Audi's Green Police

Sounds like a lot of people don't really know what to make of the Audi Super Bowl commercial.



Conservatives, it seems, are generally nodding in agreement: 'yeah, don't we all know it...we're forced to live under this ecofascist tyranny!'

Which is really missing the point. What makes this commercial funny is that the idea of an invasive "environmental police" was made up by conservatives as a way of scaring their base. The fact that we don't get harassed like the people in the ad is what makes this a biting satire of the right, who actually believe in that crap.

Update: Looks like the plastics industry heard the message loud and clear.
