Ever since right-wing influencers orchestrated a boycott of Anheuser-Busch products last year for collaborating with trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney, they have been foaming at the mouth for a new product to boycott for incredibly stupid, hateful reasons. First, it was Frosted Flakes, due to its mascot posing for a photo with Mulvaney at the Tony Awards (a cultural event beloved by the right due to the absence of LGBTQ people in musical theater). Then, it was Cracker Barrel, because during Pride Month, the restaurant chain had the temerity to acknowledge the existence of gay people on its socials.
Now, the right is going after yet another beloved brand: Doritos. This time, it's because the Spanish division of the company, which is owned by Pepsi Co., partnered with trans influencer and singer Samantha Hudson for a 50-second branded video on Instagram.
The 24-year-old Hudson has become the center of a right-wing-driven firestorm due to her appearance in the promotional video for a Doritos Spain campaign called Crunch Talks. "This is who Doritos just partnered with to be their brand ambassador in Spain. You know what to do. #BoycottDoritos. Make it trend," the right-wing account End Wokeness, which has more than two million followers, tweeted on Monday; the far-right account Libs of TikTok also posted a clip of Hudson, urging followers to "Bud Light Doritos." The campaign has primarily been aggregated by right-wing outlets, with the Daily Caller amplifying it on Monday with a headline inaccurately reading, "Doritos Terrifying New Brand Ambassador Makes Dylan Mulvaney Look Like Sydney Sweeney." (Hudson does not appear to have been, at any point, a "brand ambassador" for Doritos, appearing in only one now-deleted post on the Doritos Spain Instagram account.)

Have you heard anything about this boycott?
Why is Rolling Stones already writing about this alleged boycott of Doritos?
This sounds more like a marketing ploy than an organic boycott.
EJ Dickson of RS is a total fpos as a human being.
Cool. Doritos pulls a Bud Light Cluster.
Then blames Right Wingers.
SSDD.
This freak has already been fired for being a pedo
I see you’ve posted an article here from the bed-wetters at RS.
I for one, couldn’t care less what those morons think about anything.
If I ate that salt covered cardboard, I’d boycott.

There is no boycott. See the thread immediately below this one. Doritos admitted they screwed up and Doritos fired this fag before things got to a Bud Light level of loss.
Just the other day I was reminiscing about The Frito Bandito.
And chuckling about how it used to be “no problema, pero ahora es muchas problemas”.
Wow. What timing.
LOL. They HAVE to be joking. That, or even more stupid than I thought, which is hard to believe since in my opinion the average actual rock is smarter. Seriously? No LQBTQ people in musical theater? LOL
They fired him today.
Now they need to fire their entire marketing department.
L
Correct. We did not declare a boycott. We made a decision not to do business with fools who think we’re rednecks (well, I am anyway). We’ll do the same thing with this.
Looks like they realized their mistake LOL
“ Cool. Doritos pulls a Bud Light Cluster.

They don’t seem to learn do they?
They did it to themselves!
No one wants to eat Doritos and an image of a child molesting tranny is on the cover of the bag
Zero nutrition at what?
5 - 6 bucks a bag?
They boycott themselves.
Isn’t that the drummer for Poison?
Either way, I fail to see the problem.
Nope. No one cares about chips but Biden. He counts them.

So,so sorry, oh skeleton of what you once were - R Stone. Trans-heiser took the Dorkbama bend over position with the sicko and got it where it hurt. Until you and your economically illiterate cohorts destroy capitalism, there will remain those who just want to sell a product at a price that consumers are willing to pay. Others who try to sell those products specifically to folks who, quite honestly, who should be spending money on therapy deserve what happens. Up yours. No wait......
