I like the joke somebody came up with.

“An adult novelty company has come up with a battery powered insert that looks like a beer can and can illuminate a room. They call it the “Bud Lite Butt Light”.

"...Young men don’t want to be seen sucking on a BudLight bottle...."

Yep. That's it in a nutshell.

Or maybe they should consider how important it is to have people who know their customer base in charge of marketing. Harvard MBA’s selling commodity beer in cans to working class or frat boys looking for a cheap beer? Probably not a good mix in the vat.

Sorry for the career sales folks and distributors.

Not their fault.

That said, time to alter biz model.

AB, esp including Bud anything, made the decision to ID w the trans whatevers.

Toodles.

Maybe some of these businesses are starting to wake up and realize that a good portion of the public isn’t quite as depraved as they imagined them to be and don’t care about this garbage! Perhaps in a few more years if things keep going the way they are more people may embrace this lifestyle realizing that they may have missed something, but I think we are not quite there yet, and this marketing genius Alissa Heinerscheid just pre-maturely jumped the gun

Maybe they can sue the marketing department for incompetence and intentionally causing financial damage. The shareholders definitely should sue them.

Those Bud Light salespersons could collect donations from gay bars. Hit up that large swath of humanity for money.

Thank Alissa Heinerscheid for associating Bud Lite with a mouthful of tranny spit. Well done.

One of the key component of a good sales person is the freedom to tell management “You are making a big mistake”
Bud did this to themselves.

“this was thrown in their faces.”

By their own company hiring some crazed Wokester to come up with an advertising campaign calculated to poke their loyal customers in the eye. Don’t blame the customers who are fed up with having this deviant behavior pushed at them. The fault lies within the company.

Are there any sit-down Pizza Huts left? I used to like their lunch buffet. Can’t find anything but carry-out stores any more.

I saw a quote the other day that has since vanished, I think it was probably launched a little too soon. It said that “Right wing boycotts are financial violence”.

As you guys no doubt know, EVERYTHING is violence to the left. “Silence is violence”, “Speaking out against the trans lifestyle is violence”, etc.
