Independence Day this year might hold an entirely different meaning.

It was pretty clear early on that if BL didn't do something to stop the bleeding by Memorial Day the entire summer might turn into a disaster zone. And they didn't. Next milestone will be the quarterly sales figures announced right before the Fourth of July. Then the Fourth itself, a major sales occasion, preliminary sales figures for which will hit the following week. If the stock is going to dive look for it then.

Management looks to be in a state of paralysis, not even having posted on Twitter since the first week of April. Nobody seems to have given any serious effort to study why this is happening to them, largely because the people tasked with making such studies were the team of nuggets that got them into it in the first place, and many in the Woke media are still trying to frame it as a tantrum by rightwing bigots. That may be self-comforting but it isn't helpful.

A boycott is a political tactic, this is just revulsion.

“Bud management doesn’t realize is that the “boycott” will last forever.”

I don’t even see this as “a boycott” as much as Bud light has completely alienated, dropped and distanced itself from their base.

And have now rebranded and realigned themselves themselves as “THE beer of Trans”

the horse-faced VP of Libtard Marketing still has a job

I read that as good news. I want the destruction to continue, and she's got the magic touch!!

And the horse-faced VP of Libtard Marketing still has a job...

firing her would be an admission they did wrong. They are nowhere near that realization

Their management is totally "woke" and arrogant. The Budweiser CEO came right out of the CIA, for crying out loud. They imagine that all they need to do is run some "pro military" ads, show some guys chest-bumping, and their stupid, "fratty, and out-of-touch" customers will soon forget about this episode, and go back to buying their piss-water.

That's how these people think

“IT” looks a bit Manly. Are we sure “IT” isn’t a Tranny or Tranny want-a-be?

What the hell did they put in the vaccine? Seriously, did they add something that makes people insane?

I'm close to believing that it's something like the scenario in the Dean Koontz book "Night Chills". A drug is put in the water to make people suscebitile to subliminal (and blatant) propaganda.

YUP .... this is not a boycott .... it’s a life style change.

I like to call it, ABANDONMENT.

Bud Light is still the official beer of the NFL/BLM.

Budweiser has always been marketed to black folk going back as far as Lou Rawls.

I’d be interested in a demographic breakdown of the sales decline.

Don’t think being the official beer of the NFL/BLM is going to save their bacon.

” ABANDONMENT.”

I knew there was a better way to say it , but the old synapses just couldn’t pin it down

ABANDONMENT ...yup

As a “woke” company. They can’t really admit that rebranding BL as “Tranny- Fluid” was wrong.

So, they instead, they blame and punish what have until now had been their customers. Calling them “unwoke”, “...-phobes”, “haters” etc. and faulting THEM (their customers).

I am sure they’d rather discontinue BL, than to admit they made a massive mistake.

The first mistake was putting a women in charge of their advert. Those who picked her quickly forgot that it's mostly MEN who make the Beer Runs for picnics and occassions of celebration. It goes with the manly thing of cooking on the grill.

She stepped into an area where she knew nothing about the male ego.

There are stacked cases of it in the beer cooler in Kroger. Nobody is buying it.
