Let's give Clorox's social media manager the benefit of the doubt: no harm was intended with this tweet about bleaching the new, diverse emojis. 

It took me too long to get the intended joke: the emojis are dirty?  

As you might guess, most people took the tweet to mean that darker skin should be whitened. Clorox's explanation doesn't help much: 

Music? Bathtub? Wine? Sorry, still confusing. 

Response tweets are much funnier: 

• I can DM my resume if yall need a new social media manager @Clorox
• .@Clorox social media meeting: "Hey, they added emojis with darker skin color!" "OK, COOL. Tweet a bleaching joke. Make it funny."

Discussion Starters: 

• Should the Twitter manager have known better? Is the insult obvious or not? 
• One person tweeted, "If you're offended by Clorox's tweet, just get off of social media and look for actual racism elsewhere. #IHatePeopleSometimes." What's your view?
