| The men who now drink Bud Light |
After TikTok influencer and Audrey Hepburn look-alike, Dylan Mulvaney, was tapped by Bud Light to be their spokesman dressed as a woman, and the company's vice president and marketing executive Alissa Heinerscheid announced that the beer will no longer be marketed for the "fratty" and "out of touch" crowd, social media lit up like a solar flare.
Then the brand lost over $5 billion in revenue because the out of touch, fratty, and middle class, blue collar conservatives decide to boycott the company. So they tried putting out an America-themed ad, complete with a Budweiser Clydesdale horse, American flags, and people who didn't look like they voted Democrat.
The ad went over like a box of dead puppies. It drew even more disdain from the beer drinking public, mostly consisting of people who were offended by the pandering while avoiding a honest heartfelt apology by Anheuser-Busch CEO Brendon Whitworth.
Whitworth issued a statement on Friday trying to stem the outrage against his company.
“As the CEO of a company founded in America’s heartland more than 165 years ago, I am responsible for ensuring every consumer feels proud of the beer we brew. We’re honored to be part of the fabric of this country,” Whitworth said.
“We never intended to be part of a discussion that divides people. We are in the business of bringing people together over a beer.”
“Moving forward, I will continue to work tirelessly to bring great beers to consumers across our nation,” he said.

Country music stars Travis Tritt and John Rich dropped the beer, while Kid Rock vented the anger of many by shooting a rifle at a stack of Bud Lights.
On Friday, Bud Light finally sent out its first post since April 1 — the day Mulvaney posted his annoying video hawking the beer — with a tentative tweet reading, “TGIF?”

Not if it was the last can of beer on the planet.

Where is the apology to all of your customers for mocking real women by having a man that parodies women be the face of your brand?

Now we must hurry up and wait to see what's going to happen with the boycott of Bud Light and Anheuser-Busch. With Trump Jr. telling us to forgive and forget because the company donates to Republicans more than they do to Democrats is a poor reason to go back to them. If you want to make a difference in a boycott, you're not going to make it with a company that caters to the Left; you have to boycott companies that cater to the Right, those of us who use their products.

Nike doesn't give a crap about conservatives, for example, so boycotting them will have very little effect. But Light and the many companies Anheuser-Busch owns [google it] will be a lot more affected if conservatives refuse to give them business. CEO of the Daily Wire, Jeremy Boreing proved that with his Jeremy Razors company that competed with Gillette, after they went woke and used a transgender "msn" being taught to shave by her father. Conservatives flocked to Boreing's company and left Gillette behind.
What a crazy world this has become.
