Good, fuck them!

[tommywishbone]

Disgusting, ghoulish, vomit-inducing shit.

 Corporations do product placement ads with lots of social media "influencers". If you didn't follow any of Dylan Mulvaney's social media you would never have seen these ads.

But if you want to boycott "woke" beer corps, go ahead.

[Grape Ape]

Here's the thing.

I don't usually give a shit if a company utilizes whoever they want to promote their product.  The market will tell them if they made a good or bad call.  Plus, they don't really care about the issues - they're a company who is trying to make money and have a good EIC rating - that's their focus.

As far as the whole trans thing - don't care at all - live and let live - just don't have biological men compete in sports against women, and don't lose your mind when people don't adopt your pronoun shit.  It's clown world type behavior.

They will not walk this back. The most they’ll hope for is it dies down and these people come back to drink their beer.

[Dokey111]

I'm being totally honest here - I can't for the life of me understand why they did this.  They are not dumb people.  They've got or got access to the best and the brightest that the world has to offer in terms of marketing and advertising.

WTF is going on?

Should have used Nordic trannies.  Do you see fashion designers clothing sales plummeting?

Inferior hyper processed garbage beer, I hope that pathetic company collapses

1#. It was extraordinarily 'tone deaf' to do this immediately after a trans piece of shit massacred students and teachers at a school.

#2. Anhuser-Busch has spent the last half a century marketing itself to the frat-bro crowd and building it's client base. Then pulls this 'woke' stunt. I'm trying to imagine the reaction of the notoriously intolerant trans community if a traditionally lgbtq friendly company suddenly uses a conservative or right wing personality for a marketing ploy?

Its in poor taste and it was a stupid business decision and it betrayed their client base.

The best and brightest in the world

Would they be peddling beer?

read it again.  money is money.

you think only beer industry has money? High capacity minds are attracted by more innovative industries

there have been 146 mass shootings in the US in 2023.  Is it tone deaf to use white cis males in ad campaigns after the other 145?

Bush and Coors and Heineken and Sam Adams and the rest have been running ads in gay publications and sponsoring floats in gay pride events, etc., for over 20 years.

How is the AIDS management coming along?

[robcguns]

Fine how’s your cock?

[timfogarty]

How is the AIDS management coming along?

HIV management is going fine.  Undetectable viral load since the late 1990s, CD4s always above 600.  An AIDS diagnosis requires CD4s under 200.  Thanks for your concern.

I saw an interview with the VP of marketing or whatever her title was. She basically was saying while they know they're alienating a certain aspect of their base at the same time they're showing how inclusive they are to the younger generation.  Soon enough that older base will die off anyway and they are building bridges to this new woke generation. Yeah she's a stupid bitch but I gotta ask is her thinking wrong? I'm kinda 50/50 here. Part of me thinks they underestimate how accepted the trans horseshit is. I think it's a pretty small percentage that dont see these mentally ill freaks they are. But I could be out of touch at 45yrs old.

That's what I mean.  They're not dumb.  It's a little scary but yeah I think maybe they underestimate how many red blooded American families there are out there.  I have a couple of nephews in elementary school that I am not AT ALL worried about lol.  And they learned proper gun handling very early.

They lost me with their pro-immigration BS several years back

It reminds me of the Gillette "we believe" ad campaign.

I'm not sure if they lost market share after that ad or not. I found a blog post that discusses it but seems inconclusive.
