No but if you want to compare it to Midway, it’s a good way to pimp a blog.

Companies should stick to business.

Politics is rough stuff.

No.

I say this because some years ago, at the time of Obama’s beer summit, that no one defends Bud Light.

If you may recall at the beer summit the race baiting professor chose a Red Stipe and the mistreated cop a Blue Moon ... and Obama had a Bud Light.

Many joked about the Bud Lite and even among hard core Leftists on Hannity forums there was silence to defend the choice.

Bud Lite is a very popular brew, it was improbable that there were no Bud Lite drinkers in that thread.

So that was when I realized it...

... Bud Lite is the Cleveland of Beers: no one defends it.

"And yet somehow The Radical Left was genuinely surprised when the Normals objected to them normalizing child rape and calling for mutilating our children."

One can hope the Radical Left is going to be surprised a lot in the coming years...

The point is not Midway.

The point is, is this going to be the issues we stand on.

It is up to us, not them. Place your bets.

Placing bets requires a commitment. They have placed their bets, they are at the betting window.

No. For one thing culture is constantly changing, so there’s no “win” for anybody, which means there’s is no “turn around for the win” battle. For another thing, Bud Light just ain’t that important.

The left has been targeting areas that historically belonged to right wing males. They did this with football, racing and other sports and now the transgender strategy is playing out.

No. Most of the people who would oppose this kind of madness don't even realize we're in a war. Most of us just want to live our lives, not engage in culture wars - this is what the Left counts on, and this is why America has moved so far into pure insanity.

It’s the 2023 Boston Tea Party. It’s way bigger than people realize.

Normal, broadly conservative beer drinkers are seizing the opportunity offered by Bud Lite for payback against the elites that disrespect them. The result is a massive destruction of brand value that will be irrecoverable for years if at all. Ambev now has to fear the risk of contagion if the reputational damage spreads to other brands in their portfolio. Yet they avoid the obvious way out of the disaster because they fear retaliation and de facto blackmail by the LGBT lobby if they renounce Mulvaney and the LGBT cause that they so foolishly embraced.

...Boy scouts, military academies, the nuclear family (welfare for single moms, but ONLY single moms). Any organization that supported traditional values or the production of strong, patriotic males.

No, the "Republicans" who are suggesting that we deal with the devil and lower our rhetoric opposing abortion are the ones we must confront at this critical juncture.

Do not make Pharaoh's mistake of ignoring God's chastisements and persisting in our national sin of excusing child sacrifice.

True. Also, things aren't bad enough for elites to ignore the woke PC nonsense and concentrate on something else, so it will go on and on.

Maybe there's a bit of a retreat, but the kind of victory implied by the Midway analogy isn't going to happen. And what did it take to get victory over Japan?

BUD stock is almost back to the same price it had when the trans-Bud story went national in early April.

Current price - 65.87

April 3 price - 66.50
