The 3 likely ways Bud Light disaster might end – and only one is good news
Fox News ^ | 9 May 2023 | Dan Gainor

Warning: If you work for any major woke corporation, you’d better sit down for this. What all the corporations fear is the Bud Light boycott works. Suppose rational people decide they don’t want someone mocking women as the spokesperson of the product they use.

Then, all dozen or so companies that already have deals with Mulvaney are at risk. And not just them, any company that foists woke garbage on its customers suddenly might face the music or simply face customers who go to less-woke competitors.

That’s why Bud Light doesn’t want anyone to remember. It can’t risk it.

A side note- if you belch after chewing on a car tire it tastes like a bud light.

[No heterosexual man will ever drink Bud Light again.]

I would think not.

However it may be very popular in Sodom and Gomorrah.

If Inbev goes down, it’s no skin off my nose.

The bad thing for them is that there are lots of similar beers. Once people have switched and decided that their new beer brand is ok, they are unlikely to switch back.

Of course many people still drink Bud.

But not as many as before.

That’s the point.

“Bud Light contagion SPREADS to other Anheuser-Busch beers: Sales of troubled brand fell 21.4% in April and total numbers for parent company fell 12% - as star of controversial ad Dylan Mulvaney steps out wearing pigtails”

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12063443/amp/Bud-Light-sales-bloodbath-Sales-troubled-brand-fell-21-4-April-Dylan-Mulvaney-fiasco.html

That’s pretty bad news for ANY company.

I’m actually a bit surprised this is from Faux News.

I remember when I added Budweiser to my rotation

Skiing trip to Vermont.
Attractive young bartender asks me what I want.
I reply “a cold beer”.
She tilts her head, gives me a big smile, hands me a bud saying “Because U Deserve What Everyone Is Seriously Expecting to Receive”
Fast forward to 2033, good bye foreever Budweiser

During the baseball game broadcast last night, there was only one beer advertising. Miller Lite.

Oh, I agree. You and I can do both easily. But consumers are pretty dumb in general. Giving up Disney is more complex than giving up watery beer for them. The easier the boycott the better. The cult of Disney is a whole other subject but I think they are worse than AB.

That tranny picture on a can of beer put an image of perversion on something people hold in their hands and drink from. They painted a target on their own product. Advertisers do dumb stuff all the time but this was colossal.

Well i’ll be damned..
Someone who gets it!!!!

The bush/mccain depression level event never did fully play itself out.
4 presidents, count ‘em...4
had the chance to bring us in for a soft landing.
They all failed.
Now, we pay the price.

I prepared many years ago and positioned myself to survive in the depressed economy.
I did not even consider it would get this bad.

We are going to party like it’s 1979!!!

You're right. Great comment jean... Also, Madison Ave PR/Advertising firms have been hiring based on 'kink' for a long time - and it shows in some of their more biased stupid blunders.
