There are other beer companies that will be needing new employees soon.
The CEO has still issued no apology. Why is he still employed?
"Maybe their customers are as dumb as their marketing department."
...so customers and marketing department of "Bud".
What a nasty person you are. Arrogant and nasty as hell.
I think youre adding in or interpreting something I didnt say.
Fact, nobody is marketing toward the Lost Generation. They are gone. Nobody in marketing cares what they wanted, they arent here to buy anything.
Gen X is already getting old enough that some are kicking off. No point in marketing to them, as a generation they havent ever had money and wont be around long enough to waste marketing dollars on except for geriatric products.
Boomers have had control for decades and their time is coming to an end, its not something to dispute or have any feelings about. Time catches up to everyone. Boomers are transferring their power and money to Millennials.
A foreign, misaligned beer/company feeling the wrath!
The CEO is still employed. Says volumes. Also for the board members. They refuse to own their mistake and act as if beer drinkers are not woke enough. Very stupid move by a publicly traded company.
Once, many years ago, I went out for pizza with a friend and his wife, and the friend insisted on ordering light beer. (Unfortunately he died a few years later of cancer.) I don’t think I have ever drunk light beer when regular beer was available otherwise.
Solution: Anheuser-Busch should sell the breweries to other companies and the employees can keep their jobs.
I care - I think this is a victory for the normal heterosexual 99%.
It is a relief to see the public pushing back against this queer nonsense.
A tiny fraction of the population is confused about sex and the Left sees it as an opportunity to subvert our culture by pushing us to accept perversion as normal.
It’s nice to see them fail once in a while.
A man who pantomimes being a woman/girl largely to an audience of children and teens… and you chose to use him to market beer…
And of course the people who did this stupidity aren’t the ones who pay the price.. as usual.
This CEO should be fired. To say “we did nothing wrong” and to then also blame your customers for not thinking about your employees, when that’s Your job…
You are citing true but irrelevant numbers, babies only rarely buy beer.
Maybe Im not explaining it very well. In 1975, 71% of the people old enough to drink alcohol did so. Today 60% of those who can do so. Boomers and X less so than they did in the past meaning what they still offer to this number will be rapidly diminishing.
6% less of 21 and older Gen Z buys it compared to Millennials. When they do they make fewer trips and spend 40% less.
Unlike other generations that drank primarily beer, Gen Z is more likely to be spending its money on drinking exclusively wine (17%), spirits (14%), and others like hard seltzers and ciders (11%). Only 58% of Z even drinks beer!
Factories could be repurposed as drag queen show theaters.
Then growing in popularity like the old Apollo theater in Harlem that led to top stars developing talent for mainstream later.
Maybe.
True.
Woke jerks deserve the pain, not the workers or the drivers and their families.
Makes me think of the old Connie Francis song, “Who’s Sorry Now?”
I really doubt that Bud Lite will bounce back. That particular product cannot recoup its image as “masculine” as previous habitués switch to other brands and get used to ordering those. Once you label your Masculine Image product as Queer you can never beat the disdain and disrespect engendered among men. No matter what Bud does to show rugged masculinity it cannot outrun the snickers and jibes in the saloon aimed at someone who gets a Bud.
There’s a theory out there, and I think it has merit.
All we need to do is start taking down BS players like the
Bud Light folks. Take down less than five of them and we’ll
be respected a lot more.
I don’t relish people losing their jobs, but frankly that
means a whole lot less to me than everything I enjoy in
life having to be turned to demonic symbolism.
If we can exact $250 billion or so in damages, we’re going
to see a lot less things that tweak us.
All we are asking for is a wholesome society that doesn’t
have major players supporting deviancy.
Remember the folks who told us this boycott would do nothing?
They are if they are in union slavery states. Maybe you have not spoken to them lately.
