I just looked and Blackrock is not a big institutional investor in AB. That makes me wonder if they were, then dumped it. They are forcing Disney to fig up and support pedophilia. They own a shite load of Disney.

Are they shorting these companies, then forcing them to commit suicide?

I heard the CEO of Blackrock say they will make these CEO's do what they want, or they will slash their pay.

I am a craft type beer guy.
Haven't drank Bud Light since I was maybe 21.

I've stopped buying Blue Moon, and even Karbach here in Houston. I was shocked Karbach was owned by AB.

Your article doesn't say this. It says very little. It does link to a Fox News article about Bud Light being the 14th most popular beer in the country based on polling. This has nothing to do with sales.

In May, when Modelo became #1, Bud Light was still #2. Those sales number from June aren't public yet. BL may very well fall out of the top 10 in sales, but this thread title and the article linked are very misleading.

chik fil a customers are non-political soccer moms. and they didn't "go woke". they hired a HR manager to deal with the bullshite so they can still borrow money from the banks when needed.

if i'm wrong, show me the ad campaign from chik fil a that promotes homosexuality/trans/groomer type of stuff.

Getting cheap, light beer consumers to change brands is notoriously difficult.

Apparently not too difficult. All it took was one gift to an "influencer" and a couple press releases disparaging their main customer base, and violá, tens of millions of BL drinkers switched to another cheap, light beer.

Beer is a product that takes time to produce. Even boring beer.


Lagers are actually some of the hardest to produce. IPAs are easy and fast. That’s why microbrews like them so much.

Yea she's one of the fall people here. I still don't believe for a single second that the changing of the can didn't go all the way to the top though, and this entire thing was just the work of overzealous marketing employees gone allegedly rogue.

It’s just such an easy product to cut out of your life and find a substitute. How many people really bought Bud Light because they just loved Bud Light? I doubt anyone goes back to them who stopped buying.


Amen. Some stuff takes effort to substitute. Not this.
