Just goes to show you that all this tranny nonsense is media propaganda. I would wager 90% of folks aren’t down with it.

How much further did their sales fall this week?

The born on dates are going to be fun to look at soon.

Light beers are so fungible that no one would notice the difference in "flavor" anyway, but I agree that he was a pussy to back down from his preference because his little clique teased him.

I bet he only wears pink on Wednesdays.

The BL disaster isn’t slowing down as much as the left wants it to. The right can meme and BL has become a meme now.

We had a boil a few weeks ago about 20
Or so people and usually ultra or BL would be all over but it was all craft beer or high life’s.

Bud Light isn't real beer. I never liked it from the get-go, and that was long before any purported controversy regarding gender identity.

I find myself interested in thinking what I would have suggested AB done at the start.

I can say the initial comments from that lady were about the worst thing that could've been said.

After those comments the comment by the ceo was treated like gas on a fire. If they had come out initially perhaps they would have had a better effect.

I think I would have apologized to their core demographic. They might have won big in that sector enough to offset the liberal loss they would've had.

But what they are doing now is awful. They have managed to upset everyone.

And the right finally has had enough. The entire beer portion of AB in the United States is in trouble.

As this continues to work it seems to be getting stronger. Even if they vane out with a real apology I don't think it would stop the bleeding. I think the right wants blood. And they are being it.

I think AB has waited too long. I think they will have to wait it out at this point because anything they say will likely backfire.

Unless everyone at the top loses their jobs. If they gut everyone who touched this from the beginning till now including their ridiculous statements that mean nothing, it may help them.

But this things seems more like an avalanche getting stronger than a little storm that will blow over.

This negative sentiment about the consumers came from the top, just as she said.

Which is exactly why putting a transgender (not even a real transgender, but one who is clearly doing what he's doing just for clicks and whom even Kaitlyn Jenner referred to as a man) on the can was the dumbest possible choice in the known universe.

In fact, that's the whole point.

You better start paying attention.

The “out of touch humor” quip is the one that’s really starting to shine more and more.

it is really odd. Is it not the very point of HAVING 500 different brands within the same company … to have the ability to appeal to multiple different demographics?

Bud Lights "Out of touch" humor has been some of the funniest stuff on television in the last 20 years...

YOU think so. Others may disagree.

Again, that would seem to be the very POINT of having multiple brands … with separate, unique branding and marketing.

It was stupid to take a brand with a loyal base, and try to make this sort of change. Let that brand be that brand. TIt was the equivalent of unilaterally deciding to target Colt 45 to Yuppies.

This is spot on! People have had enough of being fed transgender propaganda and the like. This is quite possibly the only way for the masses to “push back.”

At my place last night we had a bud light opened that a customer originally ordered out of habit at 6:00 but said they actually ordered a Miller. No issues, put it in the cooler expecting someone to order another. At 9:45, I tried to give it away to customers and no one wanted it and referred to it at tranny piss. One of my waitresses. Forced it down
