Kendall Jenner's Pepsi Ad Is Being Absolutely Ridiculed Online

"You ever just take your blond wig off and end oppression by handing out beverages?"

It might seem like some kind of belated April Fool's campaign for Coke, but Kendall Jenner's Pepsi commercial has done the impossible and united the internet -- just not in the way it wanted.

The ad, which is being universally panned for it's tone-deaf approach and commercialisation of social issues, features Jenner joining a protest and handing a policeman a cool, refreshing Pepsi, subsequently ending society's woes.

Naturally Twitter had a few thoughts on that. Here are just a few of the reactions to the ad.
