Is the Bud Light boycott breaking? Kid Rock says he’s drinking it again as Dana White hypes beer to Tucker Carlson

Dana White, the CEO of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), continues to vigorously defend Bud Light amid the ongoing boycott from conservatives, as some leaders of the boycott, like Kid Rock, are also caving.

The boycott initially began in April after Anheuser-Busch, which produces Bud Light, sponsored transgender activist Dylan Mulvaney as part of its efforts to attract sales from a younger audience.

The backlash from conservatives was swift, resulting in a steep decline in sales. Prominent figures from Kid Rock to country star Travis Tritt publicly showcased their displeasure with the brand.

In the wake of the controversy, however, White instead chose to enter into a lucrative deal with Anheuser-Busch that would cast Bud Light as the official beer of the UFC. Ever since then, White has used every opportunity available to defend the brewer.

The local Walmart has a stack of Christmas baskets at the entrance featuring Bud Light. Wasn’t sure why. I’ll never buy it again.

Yea. OK. Sure.
So you’re boycotting a product you never invested in.
Lots of you folks b*tch about Middle Eastern people, but the folks in Dearborn Mi. are doing more about perversion of the youth than any of you keyboard Christians.
Just my .02 , but I think that’s where one makes a stand that matters.
Key word is make a stand.

I think Kid Rock and other celebrities get paid or get other benefits to claim that they have stopped the boycott.

Kid Rock has no heart. The day Ted Nugent caves is the day I get upset.

So, the false alternatives.

"Don't bother because others are doing more than you."

"Don't bother because you're not doing enough anyway."

The Costco by me kept stocking the Tranny fluid even though absolutely nobody was buying it - and this in a lefty leaning state.

However...last trip there and it was gone. Miller lite took its place of prominence.

Never drank that toilet water - but always get a good laugh walking by that area and seeing everybody else avoid it like the plague and laugh also.

You made my point. What are you doing?
Nothing.
Good night sweet prince. I’ve already wasted enough time with you.

Truth. 85% of Americans let themselves be locked down, masked up and injected because a republican prez told them to. Everyone who passed biology 999 knew better.
Once you give them that power, especially with the cares act to ink mail in ballots, they win. There strategy for covid, is the same as abortion.. you must decide this moment with no information, or your life will be permanently damaged and your hopes and dreams crushed. You could die. Decide now! 2 weeks after it hit NYC en masse and the city was filled with masses in public transportation… the truth was laid bare. It was most deadly if you went to the hospital and accepted their treatment.

It's not a boycott.

Very true. It is a mighty successful rebranding. The fact that the executives aren't happy with exactly what it was rebranded to is irrelevant to everyone but the few who will cash in on AB trying to re-rebrand their product. I prefer actual beer in any case. I don't even think Bud Light could even be marketed as beer at all in Germany.

"It wasn't a "mistake""

Exactly right. It was deliberate and they have yet to admit what THEY did and have yet to apologize.

I can’t not drink Butt Lite any more than I am now, but if I could I would. Every picture of that Mulvaney creature makes me physically ill.

Bud light tastes like “Pi$$” anyway, try a Yuengling much better beer

No Yuengling in Arizona. I never drank Bud Light, but here in AZ I drink 805.

Kid Rock must not like beer!
Even before the marketing fiasco that beer was swill.

I’ll not drink it again! It was my beer of choice for years and years. I eschew all brands AB. But, like I’ll continue to say, drink what you want.
