To sum up the ridiculousness: a protest starring a diverse cast of millennials\u00a0catches Kendall&#8217;s\u00a0eye while she is posing for a photo shoot. Jenner joins the Benetton-ready crew and subsequently resolves any problems by handing a\u00a0can of the soda\u00a0to a police officer. All tension is put to an end and any sign of violence disappears. Thanks Pepsi!<br \/>\nExcept not. To capitalise on today&#8217;s wave of protests and the genuine pursuit for\u00a0social justice is not only insincere, but serves as yet another example of\u00a0just how out of touch corporate America really is.\u00a0Pepsi has since responded to critics\u00a0with a statement defending its actions.\u00a0\u201cThis is a global ad that reflects people from different walks of life coming together in a spirit of harmony, and we think that\u2019s an important message to convey.\u201d<br \/>\nWhile harmony is indeed an important message, it is completely inappropriate that Pepsi should decontextualise the struggle that protest groups are enduring\u00a0in the current day by implying that their brand\u00a0of soda\u00a0acts\u00a0as some sort of twisted peace offering. Everyone knows that&#8217;s\u00a0what Coke is for.<br \/>\nAs usual, the internet has responded hilariously:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"de\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">You should have seen the rejected Pepsi commercial. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/1NR23KCuwk\">pic.twitter.com\/1NR23KCuwk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Wallace Wylie (@WallaceWylie) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WallaceWylie\/status\/849408904048107523\">4.
