TikTok sponsors Washington DC Capitals Jerseys

[ACC1224]

still puzzling a team is sponsored by a generic drink like milk but I'll take it anyday over tiktok

What next, an Apple juice patch?

'Milk' is for the Dairy Farmers of Ontario.

Maple Leafs add Dairy Farmers of Ontario logo to jerseys for upcoming season

[absolute garbage]

That's a fun little jab.

Bet they were only interested in sponsoring specifically Washington Capitals.

Ovi's rookie goal from his back would have broken tiktok

The worst ones are the ones that are just total opposites of the colour of the jerseys. The Flyers one is bright blue on an orange and black jersey, it looks so out of place. At least some make sense colour wise.

Companies don't want to spend millions of dollars just to have their ads blend in and go unnoticed.

I am well aware, thank you. That doesn't mean they don't look awful and out of place.

 

[ElLeetch]

Man, this jersey advertisement is pure horseshit. Fans should absolutely voice their displeasure loudly. We get nothing out of this crap, nobody should defend this. NHL owners can get f***ed

i haven't bought a single dollars worth of NHL Merch, paid for the Network, bought the EA game, or attended a live game in years, and i intend to keep it that way. This from someone who was a 'heavy user' in that i wed once a season ticket holder and has a whole closet full of jerseys.

You hate to see it. They should try posting a tribute to Tianamen Square protests and see what happens to that content.

 

[JianYang]

Hmm, I could have sworn I already saw tik tok on some jersey or helmet before.

I mean to be fair, it is objectively funny that the hockey team in Washington is now sponsored by the company that the US Government in Washington has already said it will ban unless its Chinese owners sell it.

I'm not American, but my understanding is that a foreign company cannot "contribute" to American political parties.

Tik tok can't buy local representatives, so they bought the caps jersey instead :p

 

[Help]

i thought tiktok wass banned in america

TikTok is the most distilled form of modern day garbage that is destroying the minds of our young (and not-so-young) people, through outrageous amounts of dopamine addiction that cripple attention spans and constant propaganda from internal dissidents and hostile foreign powers. It is drugs, marketed to adolescents, with a strong side of brainwashing. Come for the funny dances, stay for the glorious communist revolution comrade! (I kid you not, I have a friend who has become a communist largely due to TikTok)

It is pure, pure garbage. Therefore, the NHL will gladly embrace it and put it fittingly next to the latest round of gambling ads.

man that's way too long to read

But they do want to pay millions of dollars to stand out and be hated

It's funny how foreign companies can't do that but foreign countries can.

Money > Hate

Did I miss the posters who are only here to say that TikTok is totally not spying on them and it's all a conspiracy? I need a good laugh this morning.

*Yes, ALL social media platforms do it and in most cases, the user is the one providing the details. Doesn't make it right.

It's who TikTok is selling the data to.

I dont' give a shit if FB and IG sell my data to advertisers to show me ads that I can't even see anyway. Same with google.

Agreed. I get the uproar. The stuff I've read and watched indicates the app is basically malware that let's you watch stupid, addictive, time-consuming, non-sense.

 

[Big McLargehuge]

f*** the owner class. Get this shit off jerseys.

You do realize that all your data is available for purchase for anybody anywhere anyway?

The main three reasons why Tiktok was banned is because 1) it was a competitor to American companies and to the Silicon Valley domination of the Internet, 2) it wouldn't allow the US state apparatus and secret police (all those alphabet intelligence agencies, you know, the actual "deep state") a backdoor to their app like all Silicon Valley apps do, and 3) its algorithm was too powerful and independent so that the powers that be couldn't control and dictate the narrative like they can on MSM and Silicon Valley apps. That's it.

You're not making a very compelling case to be anti TikTok.

 

[GeeoffBrown]

With every social media platform you are volunteering your personal information to anyone with access to the internet

All I know is that IG, FB and the like aren't being threatened with a nationwide ban like TikTok is.

Don't think the US won't do it. They literally banned X in Brazil. It'll happen.

 

[OysterForever]

Yet another reason to hate Caps
