Solana criticized for scrubbing divisive ‘America is Back’ video

It seems that Solana simply can’t win. After dealing with backlash for its jingoistic and seemingly diversity-critical new “America is Back — Time to Accelerate” advert, it’s now copping warmth from the crypto group for attempting to fake the entire thing by no means occurred.

The advert, which was posted on Monday afternoon, includes a man — representing America — being informed by a therapist that his ideas about innovation — particularly multi-planetary journey, nuclear vitality, crypto, and AI — are merely a symptom of “rational-thinking syndrome” and that he ought to deal with one thing “more productive.”

Took them 9 hours to delete it.

Additionally all the foremost gamers within the Solana ecosystem out of the blue delete their tweets selling/supporting the advert and RT’d and favored takes about it being unhealthy.

They permitted this, supported it and celebrated it.

The therapist, presumably designed to meet the function of the stereotypical “liberal,” then suggests he ought to be occupied with “coming up with a new gender” and specializing in pronouns.

The person goes on to precise distrust of mainstream media, claims he was fired for saying “two plus two equals four,” and is informed that maths is a “societal construct” and “dominant narrative.”

He ends the advert by storming out of his therapist’s workplace and telling her “you’re fired” — an apparent nod to President Donald Trump’s catchphrase.

We’re then met with the slogan “America is back — it’s time to Accelerate.”

Regardless of the advert’s “hilarious” premise and very refined political messaging, not everyone appreciated the joke. Nearly instantly upon its launch, it was branded “dumb,” “divisive,” and “cringe.” One X consumer even advised it was sufficient to make them wish to promote their SOL.

Solana cops backlash for response to backlash

If Solana thought scrubbing the advert from all of its channels would imply the top of any. controversy, it was mistaken. Certainly, the backlash to its response to the preliminary backlash has been at the very least as livid.

“Posting this then deleting literally makes you lose on both sides. What kind of retarded move is this lmao,” wrote one X consumer, whereas one other moaned, “Based lmaoo. Tired of all woke bullshit.”

There are, in fact, these with barely extra balanced takes on the controversy, reminiscent of Fomoed founder Joshua Jake who speculates that the advert was truly “brilliant marketing” and that the “cringy rage bait” has achieved precisely what it was imagined to.

Regardless of the motivations behind the ill-fated advert, Solana itself has up to now declined to touch upon it or the controversy it stoked. It’s additionally clear at this level that, no matter its subsequent transfer, it’s unlikely to please everyone.
