Bud Light boycott stories are really depressing

So the question is what do we do to counter the BS? Well we can hide and shutter behind the closet door or even whine and cry about what it is that’s so wrong. Not sure any of that will really be helpful. Those who want us to disappear are as afraid of us as we are of them. So my question is how can we actively take them on and blow up their bullsh*t and continue to educate and create understanding that difference is beautiful, not sameness. Difference is what we all are. Why do religions fight and kill each other over who has the ‘real’ god? Fear it seems is running the world right now. How can we calm the fears these people have about us? Thought???

 

What does protecting the children have to do with anything ?

 

Protecting the children is another con in my mind. I can hear the fear of others ringing in my ears. These faggots and weirdos will come after my babies and turn them into freaks! The fear for them is totally overwhelming. Of course it’s all BS, but that’s not the point is it.

 

Okay, I’m still not quite sure I totally understand everything about this, but I was at Total Wine and More the other day, and they were selling Bud Light for dirt cheap. So I picked up an 18 pack. Was that good of me?

 

For those old folks like me who remember the changes that took place starting many decades ago when African American people were reintroduced as real human beings as opposed to whatever. It took time and patience but at the same time it took people who put themselves out there to challenge the existing status quo. This is our time. What are you gong to do? The Bud folks put it out there. Now what are we going to do as far as follow up goes? We must support the organizations that are willing to make the change. I.e. Target stores now too. Let’s not forget there are still pockets of people in this country who still don’t believe black people should have any rights. Who wins? Them or us!

 

I pay attention to a lot of stuff. The companies are only supporting LGBTQ+ for investment money. If you want to support those companies, buy some bud light, shop at target, etc. I don't care if someone wants to protest. I don't wine and cry about it. I don't change my shopping habits. Instead, I dig into why companies risk it. They know it's not popular with the straight folks. I must say, though, that bud light marketing chick pooped on their customer base. Probably not a good idea to say what she did about those rednecks and frat boys who were buying their beer. They might have lost money from customers, but Anheuser-Busch got a nice ESG score because of it, which led to more investor money. They didn't do it out of the kindness of their heart because they love the LGBTQ+ community; they did it for money.

 

Still,it's funny these kinds of people have ram trucks (pro gay company) and usually switch to Coors lite (very pro gay and owned by the same company as Budweiser) after boycotting Budweiser.

 

shows how little research they really do.

 

This is the truth. Don’t believe any company really cares about you as an individual or you as part of whatever community you subscribe to. The only thing Bud Light care about is Bud Light sales, Bud Light share price, Bud Light executive bonuses, investors being willing to lend to Bud Light.

If you want to support them for using a trans person in their advertising, the best thing you can do is buy their beer. A lot of people have stopped buying it because they don’t care to see their beer brand associated with a lifestyle that they disagree with (and that probably stems more from their misunderstanding and the media riling everyone up than it does from any ‘hate’ they have for anyone).
