When you decide to play a game with the gay alphabet, you are going to lose whatever you do.

It’s best to ignore them, and stand by your core customer base instead of chasing the fringe elements of society.

And I say this as a gay man, but I’m not a member of the alphabet.


As another non member of the alphabet yet still gay this post is 100% dead on.

Gay Bars BOYCOTT ALL Anheuser Busch Beers

I was told in my PreK groomer class at school, that gays became gays by boycotting the bush?

Why is this news now?

Certainly more penetration when served by bottle compared with can.



Are tallboys a big seller in gay bars?

Doukeris went on to decry the “misinformation” spread on social media after Mulvaney last month posted a photo with a Bud Light while in a bathtub on TikTok to his more than 10 million followers.

quote:

Last month, Mulvaney began posting images and videos of himself on social media pitching Bud Light — prompting anger and calls for a boycott.

quote:

During the week ended April 22 — the most recent industry data available — Bud Light sales plunged 21% vs. a year ago, accelerating from a 17% slide a week earlier and an initial weekly drop of 6% when the controversy kicked off during the first week of April, according to Nielsen IQ and Bump Williams Consulting.

What a level 11 epic fail. They piss off their reliable customer base while trying to draw members of a very small minority market, then they piss off the minority market by trying to appease their former reliable customer base in a way that will not appease them. The CEO must be something special in person because he blew by the Peter principle about 5 levels of management ago (maybe he gives a spectacular blow job). There will be marketing textbooks written about this.

I'll never understand why any red-blooded, pro-American business person would drink beer from a foreign-owned company, which is Anheuser Busch, rather than drinking beer made by American-owned businesses, especially in their local communities or states.

Why do gays care about people pretending to be the opposite sex? I guess it's just a perversion porridge.

And I can't even wrap my head around this one. As it were.

If there were an honest collegiate process this would be talked about in marketing classes forever.

But…

Once a company makes one of these decisions, they may as well go with it.

Bud light did a big ole cannonball into the Lake of Politics. They can’t swim and can’t seem to find the shore…

This is a scam by Budweiser to try to make rednecks go back to drinking their beer to piss off figs. They catered to figs and lost millions of beer drinkers that are never coming back. Not enough guy people in America to affect any market other than gay bars!

I disagree. Homosexuals and schizophrenic people who stand naked in front of a mirror and don't believe their lying eyes, are very different.

AB made a massive mistake. They forgot who their customer was, and turned the marketing over to idiots with a political agenda. Now they've pissed off the figs and the rednecks. All they have is the extremely small percentage of freaks that don't know which bathroom to use, and those people probably never drank beer in the first place.

This bullshite will be studied in college marketing classes for decades. This may be the greatest unforced error in history.

If BL was actually a good product rather than a (formerly) well marketed iced piss, this could work.

Once people realize they can get comparable stuff at a similar or lower price point, AB got fricked. Proper fricked.


No shite! I was in Costco this afternoon. Walked down the beer aisle just to see. BL was almost $3 more a case than Miller Light. The people that were drinking BL, doesn't want anyone seeing them buying OR drinking it now. They can buy similarly shitty beer for less money and avoid the sigmatism? LOL! I'd bet my house payment that Miller Light is outselling BL at my local Costco, and the local distributor is sitting on a shitload of product.
