Backlash doesn't always mean people are offended/upset. I think most people just recognize this as an ad done in bad taste or even just out of touch.

Bad company makes bad ad, people say it's bad. Sure, kinda pointless to talk about, but it's just another reason not to buy it and tell others not to buy into their anti consumer crap.
