Those that predicted early on this was just a temporary bump in the road for the brand are being proven wrong.

Totally not the fault of the employees losing their jobs.
The CEO should be dropped without a golden parachute

Bud Light successfully offended both side of “aisle”. Stupid beyond belief

People don’t realize that this was the objective all along. This woke agenda is designed to get a backlash, and the people that will suffer are the blue-collar workers. Meanwhile, the suits that are rubbing elbows with Klaus Schaub will still enjoy the caviar and champagne.

Bulldroppings. Are people buying less beer? or have they changed to a different brand? Yuengling should be doing well, if I have any say in the matter. Will Yuengling build more factories?

If the makers of dud lite go bankrupt, why should I care?

I just posted this on another thread and it is true here too.
...

I doubt either are as stupid as the boomer comments on these threads.

Nobody wants the crappy diet beer sold to boomers who wanted to pretend they were still young. There are no consumers and no one wants to make and sell it. Its trash and its low margin.

No boomers, no crappy diet beer.

Just like I said when this all started, watch for other companies to pull the same things and sure enough others followed right down the same path.

Not just other diet beers but other brands that have made their money being part of the mind memes of being a boomer like Harley Davidson.

Bad companies and their products should die if they cant find a new market for consumers.

What Im trying to say is that if your enemy navigates his ship onto a reef and is sinking, its entirely up to you if you wish to dance and celebrate but dont delude yourself into believing you had anything to do with it. Thats like kids in the back seat pretending that their parents driving down the highway are winning a race, its all in their mind and they are not in control.

If your drowning enemy finds someone to take them aboard, that ship is not necessarily your enemy either.

When there are no boomers, there is no need for boomer trash. All of these companies face losing 100% of their value regardless of what they once were or they must try to find a way to minimize the loss. If it means that they once had 100% of the market and can only hold on to 10%, then so be it.

Gens X and Z have no real say in any of this.

Everything must now switch to the world as defined by the mind of the Millennial and the boomers dont really have any say anymore either as they will lose political control at the end of election night 2024 and as their numbers dwindle they pass the torch due to sheer numbers in the population by 2030.

Millennials generally dont want real beer and if the few who do want gay organic kumquat guava ultralight IPA then thats what everyone gets.

The article is BS. Americans have not stopped drinking beer.

According to MSNBC, Yeungling’s sales are up 32% over same period.

That’s more cans, more bottles, more worker-shifts, more pay, more trucks for them - and more sales for those same grocery stores that aren’t selling Bud Light.

Simple solution for retailers trying to get rid of their stock of Bud Lite. Re-market it as semi explosive targets for the gun range.

Here’s what’s behind that insane assertion that Modelo is America’s best-selling beer:

Modelo is not even a major brand in the U.S. It is, however, the best-selling brand in Latin America. So it’s the now the best-selling brand IN THE AMERICAS. Not in America, but the AMERICAS.

So why are the news media so hell-bent on repeating this bizarre “mistake”? Simple: Modelo is also an Anheuser-Busch brand. They’re trying to rescue Anheuser-Busch by getting people to switch to the A-B brand people are least likely to recognize as an A-B brand.

Yeah, I feel bad for the front line workers who lost their jobs, but America needs to push back against these woke demons who are determined to do us in. We need to get medieval on all these companies. Disney. AB. Target. Etc.

We need to push back, boycott, protest, etc, so that said companies will be terrified of aligning with reprobates and perverts. If they don't suffer, nothing will change.

I am genuinely sorry for the good Americans who manufactured and delivered and stocked this product. It is not their fault.

But what are we to do, just tolerate this insanity forever?

I’ve been a beer drinker for over fifty years, enjoy all kinds of brands, and I still am stunned to have learned that Bud Lite was #1 brand before all this. What happened to America when I wasn’t looking?

Oh well. Bud takes a hit and other breweries take the business. Too bad.
