Basically he said:

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,

Humpty Dumpty had a great fall;

All the king's horses and all the king's men

Couldn't put Humpty together again.

[joshua c]

uh oh

they seem to be ashamed of dylan

HRC better not find out

[No name given]

Indeed.

[MtnClimber]

NO! It is the leftist, wokeist, marxist battle against the values of our country.

[joshua c]

oh

now they are blaming an unnamed outside agency

more squirming

[blackdog]

Idiot. It’s not the Bud Light. It’s the ESG Woke juggernaut assaulting every aspect of our lives. It’s not the brand of tea being dumped in the harbor. It’s the merchants of the king being protested with this mess of their own creation. We do owe Budweiser a great debt of gratitude for giving the masses a platform to communicate.

[nickcarraway]

He did an ad that was posted online. I think it was more about that then the cans. Also, has it ever been determined how much money they gave him?

[frogjerk]

This can is not a formal campaign or advertisement.

Then what was it?

[Dilbert San Diego]

So this was not officially part of a marketing campaign.

This was not officially meant to make any political statement.

This was done by an outside firm, who did all this without the knowledge or approval of management.

We are being asked to believe a string of highly questionable statements, in order for this to be believable.

[bak3r]

Don’t care, never buying AB again.

[Macoozie]

Keep digging AB-
They really and truly don’t get it.

This will be taught in Biz School for decades-
“How to Kill a Business”

[Vision]

Wow. A-B took a few weeks to decide to tell their consumers they’re stupid.

[plangent]

Oh, dear! And it took only one straw to break the camel’s back.

There is just so much most of us “can” stand seeing the glorification of mental disease. A-B made a poor choice.

[William of Barsoom]

Beer cans are “decorated” with ultra-fast drying inks. If you knew how a can decorator works — especially how incredibly FAST they are — and how a “necker-flanger” works, you would know how extremely unlikely this story from A-B is.

[map]

“Anheuser-Busch is now telling retail customers that a recent controversy is just a tempest in a pint glass.”

Keep digging AB. You are going to get it from all sides as your market share continues to shrink.

Apologize and promise never to do it again. There’s a small chance that will somewhat work

[FamiliarFace]

They weren’t counting on the influence going in the wrong direction.

They think any publicity is good publicity.

Screw ‘em!

[DoodleBob]

In reality, the Bud Light can posted by a social media influencer that sparked all the conversation was provided by an outside agency without Anheuser-Busch management awareness or approval,

Can they get their spin straight, please?

First, they wanted to dispense with the fratty image, and make it more inclusive.

Then they went radio silent for a week.

Then they supported the former marketing head.

Then these heads took a leave of absence.

Then the Clydesdales came back out of retirement in a commercial.

Then their US head sent a non-apology apology letter to the world.

Now it was the fault of an outside agency.

All that's missing now, is the Obama-like "I knew nothing until I saw it in CNN."

[blackdog]

Budweiser was just the single spark in a room full of gasoline soaked rags. Their willingness to please a government of stupid ideas out of an echo chamber just met reality of us “Walmart Stinking Public” (-Peter Strozk)

[Mariner]

It’s our fault we’re offended and outraged.

We are defective. /s

[Reno89519]

One can too many. Sorry, you’ll have to do better. Maybe fire everyone involved, disavow teaming with the mentally ill man pretending to be a women, maybe suggest helping him get mental health treatment or institutionalization?

[CodeToad]

It was obviously an important, a very important can, to produce.
