Bud Light suffers bloodbath as longtime and loyal consumers revolt against transgender campaign

Bud Light suffered a bloodbath this past weekend.

Consumers nationwide revolted against the nation's top-selling beer brand after it stepped "recklessly" into the culture wars last week with its new spokesperson, transgender TikTok star Dylan Mulvaney, according to bar owners and beer-industry experts around the country.

"I think society flexes it muscles sometimes and reminds manufacturers that the consumer is still in charge," Jeff Fitter, owner of Case & Bucks, a restaurant and sports bar in Barnhart, Missouri, told FOX Business.

BUD LIGHT SAYS PACT WITH TRANS ACTIVIST DYLAN MULVANEY HELPS ‘AUTHENTICALLY CONNECT WITH AUDIENCES’

"In Bud Light's effort to be inclusive, they excluded almost everybody else, including their traditional audience."

He cited sports fans, working people and women as loyal Bud Light consumers the brand suddenly excluded in its race to go woke.

They should replace her with a clear man who will simply identify as her while at work.

I perceive most beer drinkers are men, and what they have done is make Budweiser the “sissy” beer.


They spent what, nearly half a century, trying to overcome that viewpoint to begin with?

Same thing happened with liberals all the time. Their minds become so open and inclusive that their brains fall out.

Disney didn’t lose. Disney transferred its authority to a different entity and DeSantis was outfoxed.

I’ve never really drank much Bud Light. I’ve been OK with regular Budweiser.

But if we think about it, it seems that most of the beer brands out there (Molson, Miller, etc) have acquired a degree of “wokeness” over the recent years.

Even in my neck of the woods (Minneapolis-St. Paul), the local micro-breweries seem to be tilting leftward. Of course, most of them are located right in the urban area where the consumers are all leftists.

“My question is this: do the stockholders of these woke corporations ever get sick of watching their stockholder value wiped out by these moronic corporate dweebs pursing their little woke fantasies as their expense?”

Unfortunately not. Many are mutual funds and hedge funds who are interested in one thing only - profitability and the price of the stock.

Worse yet, these funds do not wanna pi** off the ESG powers that be and end up on the receiving end of seeing their ESG “goodwill” go down the toilet.

You left out education systems ( or should I say Ministry of Brainwashing & CorrectThought) from university right down to kindergarten.

Maybe. It depends upon the verbiage of the law, and the end-of-tenure laws. They did make it more difficult though.

(It is a religious expression of devotion.)

Yes it is. A sacrifice to the spirit of antichrist.

Godless reprobates taking -— pleasure -— in it - just as Romans prophesied. See all here and especially verse 32.

Romans 1:24-28
King James Version

24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

Romans 1:32
King James Version

32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

There are a lot more and better choices for beer. Conservatives *should* be more loyal to their causes, but at least this one is far easier to boycott.

Only problem is that conservatives boycott one beer and go with another. Buts it’s made by the same company. I’m sure Budweiser is stunned.

You don't understand. Only one of their products had a transgender stamped on it. Bud Light. And that is the product which is getting hammered. The message is being sent loud and clear $$.

Bug Lite is beer for the tasteless as it tasteless in more than one way...it’s nasty. Give me Anchor Steam or Guinness Extra Stout, either costs little more than Bug and are truly tasty premium brews.

You don’t understand. ...

************

I think it’s you that don’t understand.

what needs to happen is that the entire corp is hammered into the ground. All the board of directors, execs and mid level managers tracked and any company or corp that hires any of them hammered into the ground for it. Make them poison.

Let the corp world know that if you have an HR department that allows this filth to infiltrate and refuses to deal with it as it manifests, and board of directors and primary share holders know that if you allow this sort of thing to happen, you lose everything.

There are those that only respect what they fear.

Make them afraid.

Best post of the thread!

The most important thing that could come of this is for the people to see that they actually have power. It’s time to stop waiting 4 years to vote, and to understand the power of the dollar right here and now. The Bud Light story is the perfect example of isolating a target and destroying it. Then pick another one.

👏👏👏

No, you're another who don't understand what is happening and you're not looking at the big picture.

Read slowly.... What is happening is their product with the transgender stamped on it is being beat like a drum.

The message is clear, you want to push misfits and the mentally ill on one of their products, they do so at a risk.

Question; Do ya think Budweiser is going to slap transgenders on any more of their products again?
