This story is just getting to the people that drink it. Most don’t know about the tranny.

Hopefully it tanks.

Bud Light commercials have been some of the funniest ever made. Somehow this kind of Gillette grade stupidity doesn't seem to fit their history, but who knows.

"Bood lieet" is a favorite of foreign nationals. The easiest way they could offend people who literally can't read English is by putting a picture on the can.

This is collossally stupid. There should be financial pain as a result.

Why?

Investors clearly have priced this in and it hasn't affected stock market prices.


Gillette's stock price didn't move until the cut in earnings was reported...

It's coming

No way this happens without very high up approval. They fricked up and they know it. How do companies continue to do such stupid shite?

I never realized how many of my friends on Facebook drink Budweiser product

Everybody is fricking furious over this lol and since I don’t drink, I live watching it all go down

Having said that, Budweiser will take a little short term but they will rebound and make record profits sooner than later

—-

It’s almost like these MF companies throw shite at walls hoping it sticks and if there is not a backlash then it will be the new norm. If there is a backlash, oh well because they know all they have to do is spend a little money to make feel good, patriotic ads that will bring people back to their products.

Every major company is doing this these days and it’s sickening to me because their consumers will forget and forgive

It’s fricking disgraceful

That’s just the story they came up with. I bet their paying Facebook to block comments about this. The Queen of beers will suffer from this one!

Which is exactly the kind of rumor a skilled marketing team would circulate to attempt to walk back a monumental flop of a marketing campaign.

Which tells me it IS a monumental marketing flop.

They're even trashed by people from both sides of the magical 2-way divide.

They rolled the dice to be woke.

They went against the wishes of their customers.

Being woke is costing their distributors sales.

They catching heck from their distributors.

Then try to blame on someone else.

Transheuser Busch Products

Budweiser and all variations
Busch and all variations
Stella Artois
Natural Light
Michelob and all variations
Rolling Rock
Shock Top
Hoegaarden
Becks
Bass
Leffe
Corona and all variations

The only ones I occasionally drank were Stella and Corona. With a million other beers to choose from, eliminating those 2 is easy.

That eliminates all AB/InBev products.
We sadly cannot do the beer formerly known as Dixie.
So what local/regional options are best?
Abita, Lazy Magnolia, Tin Roof, Gnarly Barley?

I'm not buying that for a second. Bud Light execs forgot who their customers are and pulled a Gillette and went full woke and are feeling it.

If the execs come out and publicly talk trash about the whole idea of gender changing and trans kids and men playing womens sports and that the world has lost its damned mind then maybe I'll believe it. Otherwise these are corporate people trying to walk back a dumbass decision the best they can while secretly supporting all kinds of trans sh!t
