He would've been better off just saying "My name is Brendan"

My name is Brendan, that much is clear,
I still have a job and we still make beer,
Some of it's awful, some is alright,
But lately the talk of the town is bud light,

As to why did we do it? The answer is "woke"
Now our can has a lady-man, Brand's going broke,
Now I hope you'll forget, and I hope this will end,
But old Dylan, like bud light, is playing pretend,

we once were the King of beers, now beer of queens,
and trannies and genderqueers, whatever that means,
If you don't like our stance, leave Bud light on the Shelf,
Because Tranheuser-Butch says to Go frick Yourself.

No, CEOs and political leaders aren't stupid at all. They are evil geniuses.

They think YOU are stupid, as do the people that agree with them.

He would have been better not saying anything at all. If he can't admit a mistake, then don't write this garbage trying to make us feel sorry for your company

When I was at The Basic School in Quantico, VA they taught there were two types of courage: physical and moral.

Physical courage is exemplified by rushing the enemy position under overwhelming fire or dragging your wounded comrade to safety.

Moral courage means you have the gumption to speak up for what is right despite that stance being unpopular or causing you personal loss. It is obvious this coward slept through those classes as a 2nd Lt.

claim no one at a senior level approved changing the fricking cans of their flagship product, essentially blaming the marketing person for going rogue.


To anyone who has ever worked at a company with more than 25 employees this excuse they came up with is so ridiculous on its face. As if this could have been done in a vacuum without 50 people signing off on the change to the can.

I’m tired of the L’s and G’s being associated with the T’s.

As a young adult, I was against gay marriage. As time went on, it became an issue I didn’t care about. You do you. No, I don’t want it forced at me constantly in ads, but the few gays I do know don’t care for that BS either.

In a nutshell, if you want a beer can for the L’s and G’s, whatever. When you try to appeal to the T’s, you’ve crossed the line for me. T is a sickness.

Brendan, your company done fricked up. Your statement said nothing. Until you actually walk it back, I have zero sympathy for any loss of revenue.

Love it. Hopefully whatever negligible sales they got from this whole fiasco go out the window while their original demographic continues to tell them to frick off

That’s one of your best efforts. Truly inspired. You should publish that.

That literally says nothing at all and if I drank that horse piss would just make me angrier. I hope the backlash continues until he's forced to actually address the issue. Hell if I were a customer I'd rather him just come out and say yeah we support tranny's rather than treating everyone like we're idiots and this is enough to address it.

If you're going to choose to put a trans person on your product, atleast include a semi-normal well adjusted person. And not the guy who spends all his time acting like a 14 year old girl, and only transitioned so he could be famous on the internet.

Is there any doubt that AB would be much better off with Andrew Whitworth at the helm and not this gutless turd?
