Amazing how one person can cause so much chaos to a business and damage to a product. Has anyone seen the woman who started this all?

Dylan seems to have totally disappeared since all the backlash on the bud light thing has started. I haven’t seen one Twitter from Dylan in quite a while. Perhaps Anheuser-Busch is paying him/her to be quiet and out of sight.

What if they held a price war and nobody else showed up?

BB&B dropped My Pillow from their store.

JC PENNEYS became Woke.

“...Michelob Ultra, the company’s strongest U.S. brand...”

The company’s “least swooningest” U.S. brand?

He’s an influencer, alright.

A negative influence!

They are doing the rebates in order to show sales at the checkout counter, but they are taking a loss because the store is making their commission on the sale and the rebate money goes to the consumer. Not a good business model.

When you’re marketing a tasteless “beer” in a marketplace full of tasteless “beers” to people whose only goal is inebriation, you better not give them a reason to dislike you.

They know the globalist elite responsible for ESG/ new world system have more power over them than the people. They fear antichrist.

[Gillette]

I would never buy a Gillette product ever again, except:

If it was 90%-95% off and I just wanted a cheap backup.

I haven’t been in a Dick’s Sporting Goods, either, for about 10 years now. I can do without them too.

BB & B pulled My Pillows out of their stores and reaped further sales decline. It definitely impacted them.

Some reactions take a while too unfold. For example, I didn’t sell my GMC truck the next day and buy a Tundra when GM accepted bailout. I switched at my next purchase in 2017.

Same with Disney. Subscriptions, planned vacations, etc. Disney hasn’t reached bottom yet.

Beer? Loyalty is 12 oz deep. Next time people ordered a beer, it wasn’t a Bud. Impact overnight.
