Leftists and conservatives are both boycotting Bud Light...
This is amazing!
we've all come together over hating Bud Light. I can't say I saw coming.
Bud light was ❤😮The bud light campaign was part of a Orwellian agenda of telling us that men can be women, and we must just accept it, this was the public saying to the elites, no, you dont get to reshape everything in society without getting permission from the society, the elites should serve the people, not the other way around, it should be government of the people, not government of the condescending our of touch, confused on what gender is, elites, it was a wonderful rebelion
"Leftists" 😂
GO WOKE GO BROKE. ah I never get tired of saying this true and accurate statement
The only reason liberals are trying to boycott Bud light is so in the future than can lie and say they were the ones that made bud light go out of business. They don’t want people to think republicans are the ones with power. It’s another pathetic attempt to lie and steal
Moral of the Story; Stay far away from Dylan Mulvaney
Best thing a person could of ever said! HE has to be the most unlikable person on the planet! Shame on him for taking advantage of the transgender movement for this gain!
A lesson for companies to stay out of politics.
A bigger lesson for people to not let companies influence their decision making.
@@billythekidder7182 who do you think should influence my decision making?
What politics ? Who’s politics ?
Not politics.
How is being LGBTQ political?
That former Budlight marketing VP sure did a number on the company. 😂😂😂
All the major beer companies have support LGBT rights for decades, the only difference is people were just now told to be outraged.
She got fired?
She is a he, and was a hired actor. If your not born a she then you will never be a she. Without real women giving birth to both male and female babies the alphabet group will disappear. Stop calling us breeders.
@@gilberttorres8 not yet, but the company said she is on leave.
Well she went to Harvard and that means she’s smart 😂
They have succeeded in bringing people together! That's a big accomplishment that nobody has done for so long! Having BOTH sides of a heavily opposing groups uniting over a beer!
Mr CEO. You deserve a raise!
they aren't united
@@ofon2000 well they are now.... In the boycott at least 🤣🤣🤣🤣
their ceo is so meta 😅
A raise from Heineken.
😂😂😂
"365 days as a woman" is absolutely ridiculous
Ain’t even a woman cause he can’t bare kids, unless they adopted. Only a biological, real, woman can do such wizardry.
@@ColeFo a lot of biological women cannot bear children.
@@Stewalebeth and? They were still born a woman. Ya know da opposite of a dude, they got innies we got outties
@Mel S from my understanding, trans people believe they have always been the other gender than what they are born as. So why would they support the “365 days” when that contradicts their ideology? The mental gymnastics are insane
People should make "365 days without Bud light" videos.
ok, now this is getting absolutely hilarious!!
"Pretty women make us buy beer, ugly women make us drink beer, pretend women make us boycott beer. "
Somebody who pretends to be a woman; marketing something that pretends to be a beer.
🤣🤣🤣
U knocked it out! Lol 🤣
😂😂😂 omg
People don't like Dylan Mulvaney because he treated his 365 days of womanhood as a joke. Making women out to be constantly emotional, irritable, and sometimes unable to do just about anything because of "cramps." Even if he became a woman, he still treated others like they were less than, so he doesnt deserve support or advertisement because that kind of attitude as a definition of women is absolutely wrong.
My sentiments exactly
He’s a big joke, an absolute clown.
No man can ever be, or become a woman, so there's that...
He can't "become a woman".
the only people that can "become a woman" are girls......XX only, by defintion
Wow so damned either way a valuable lesson for businesses to stay neutral and out of political matter's
It's definitely a cautionary tale
Exactly! 🎯
Yes.
Should keep apostrophes out of political matters, too. ijs
Trans people existing isn't political just because Republicans screech about it.
Perfect case study for why for-profit companies should stay out of politics. There’s no winning.
There was nothing political about what they did. They just didn't realize a large part of their consumer base is bigoted
@@stevemiller9880 no we just don’t accept mentally unstable child groomers!!!
@@stevemiller9880* realistic. Fixed it for you.
@@jamescurran6277 says the guy calling trans kids future mass shooters even the vast majority are straight white guys
@@stevemiller9880science based there fixed it for you
Classic case of trying to please everybody going wrong
Can't even give that stuff away! This is great
Why can't I stop laughing lol
Because the whole thing is ridiculously stupid on all sides.
@@billythekidder7182 yes it is!!
rather hilarious watching a company destroy itself for no reason at all...
Stupidity they have is just hilarious
@@JohnDoe-ew3xt equally hilarious watching its customers get angry over nothing at all.
@Billy The Kidder And hilarious watching idiots trying to identify as something they're not.
Budlight shot themselves in the foot twice by upsetting first a majority of their consumers and then again for backing out on the remaining ones
They may collapse. Survival of the fittest applies here.
majority of Bud Lights consumers are in China. Triggered Americans are a very small piece off the pie, and LGBT Americans are even smaller. Def gonna lose out on profits, but they're not going anywhere even if this lasts years.
Right : *F U*
Left : *F U*
Man soon Post Malone is gonna drop a whole album dissing budlight
You mean the right and center. The left has always been against capitalism and business owners. Liberals are not the left.
Lol, Bud Light is getting it from both directions now. Should have just stayed out of this battle...
kinda like the person involved ... lol
yep!
kind of like running into the middle of a gang shootout to break it up...
there is only one possible outcome.
DERP!
The very definition of "don't start none, won't be none"...lol!
We still drinking BUD LIGHT here. When politics determines what you eat or drink you are a weak fools, I bet yall like PARTICIPATION TROPHIES.😂😅.😊
there is no battle.
My friends got a bucket of bud light bottles for free at restaurant in Connecticut. They refused them. 😂😂😂❤
Yeah that didn't happen
I'd take them in a heartbeat
@@rogerlonghorn2425 idk man i got free drinks/meals at restaurants before so it's not entirely impossible especially with a big group
@@rogerlonghorn2425 Because it is so unbelievable? Wth, getting free drinks happens so often in restaurants...
Well, it’s kinda sus if they had accepted.
LOL - Anheuser - Busch is just damned either way! This is why businesses just need to keep their opinions to themselves and sell products.
exactly. Sell the beer. It is a beverage. Not a culture.
so well said.
The g @ y community is so embarrassed by this. They won't even carry the 🤡.
We've only been saying this the last, I don't know, 10 or 15 years this crap has been going on. But trust me they haven't learned their lesson, we're going to get more politics on more of our products because they think that's how you make money on social media with the kids. Just like most of America, they think social media represents the majority.
So no celebrity endorsements for any products?
Imagine thinking you need a beer company not to “abandon you when you needed the most.” This is a shake down from 3% of the population. Yeah, remember they just wanted to get married.
The rate has jumped to 20% among Gen Z adults and is growing every year. This is no longer a country to raise children, the agenda is completely saturating society.
😂😂😂 omg . This is history for future generations to learn what not to do in your company
I'm glad to have witnessed myself this marketing failure of ultra-epic proportions. I hope it'll be the first of many... wokicides. 😬
dylan is mocking women. hes just a man dressed like a woman. acting in ways he thinks all real woman acts.. its pathetic. grow up.
Dylan isn't mocking women. Dylan is a woman. You can hate that all you want because you don't get it but that just makes you an ignorant bigot
Finally we can all come together over something
I just want to thank the LGBTQ+ community for helping us with our boy-cot of bud light.🤣
JUSTICE🙌🏽
😂💀😂💀😂
Bigots and the LGBTQ+ community joining forces for two very different reasons
"As the first woman to lead the biggest beer brand in the world, it’s an amazing opportunity to really evolve and elevate Bud Light, this brand I love,” - Alissa Heinersheid
Yaa she didn’t really elevate it More sunk to the bottom of the ocean
Don't forget about the part where she said the brand image is associated with "....fratty and out of touch humor..." which was an open insult to the BL customer base. It was these offensive comments in combination with the pretend woman that started the cancellation (not boycott).
Her surname sounds a lot like "Heineken".
Mmmm... Suspicious...
Most of everything Dylan says is offensive
@@gastonlanteri1147 sounds nothing like it actually
A lesson for companies to stay out of politics and don't insult your customer base..
A brewing controversy. I see what you did there
Go woke go broke.
People will follow through with this saying on everything except Disney 🤔
Companies make more money going "woke". Bud just didn't realize so many customers in America are ignorant bigots
Good for all of you! Bud’s response was beyond pathetic
Are you mad😅😂
It was, until they realized boys can't be girls, and their customer base won't stand for those lies.
Lol ah po baby
Nobody cares about your feelings
Whyd do you give a F about a beers marketing strategy? This is the cancel culture that so many people complaing say they hate.
@@14isoldenough Nah, this about a company hiring a woke marketing exec, who is now fired, along with her boss.
Keep politics out of corporations. No political campaign dollars for politicians. Keep politics out of churches. Keep politics out of schools.
You are aware that if politics are going to be taught it's going to be in school. It goes together with history class. How are kids gonna learn about historical figures without knowing what they stood for?
What politics in hiring a "performer"? Dylan Mulvaney is a theatrical performer. He is acting and living a ROLE. He mimics style from classic ladies of the past notably from movie classics. It is like being on stage doing a show 365 days a year or like Tootsie or Mrs. Doubtfire. Yes, I wish he just stated it up front - So why is there hate and a backlash over Budwiser putting his face on a can of beer?
That’s why you don’t get involved in random agendas as a company now you lose both ways
What agenda did they get involved in? Marketing?
@@BB-rh2ml The trans agenda. They pretended Dylan Mulveney is a woman when he is a man. And even worse they gave him a sponsor deal simply because he is a man pretending to be a woman. Real woman don’t get this support just for existing yet he does.
@@BB-rh2ml Trans agenda
@@dantegarza3138 So an imaginary agenda ignorant bigots live in fear of. Got it.
@@BB-rh2ml Found the dumbest person on the internet.
Glad I don't drink. Both sides are crying drunks.
I don't drink either, but when this story broke we added a 12 pack of coors to our weekly shopping list. We pour it out in the sink and toss the cans in the recycle bin.
@@djb3271 You’re still supporting the company. They don’t care if you pour it down the sink or your throat.
Bruh they put a woman in a big marketing position for the first time in history of the company and this happens. Certified women moment
BUNCH OF DRAMA QUEENS LOL
I know, republicans are such snowflakes!
🤣😂
I agree!! Kid rock being the ULTIMATE DRAMA QUEEN by shooting the big scary mean bud light cans with his big strong boy gun.
Said the guy in all caps. You ok? lol
jeez, now they are turning on themselves. you cannot make this stuff up.
Looking from outside you probably won't know that it's not a hivemind. There is difference of opinion, just like in any other community.
The only reason it's a community is to have a space to find others more easily because it's a very small percentage of the population.
And LGB doesn't really like the T that much.
@@testest8101 so well said. At the risk of triggering some on here, I have to say that the amount of time and effort spent on those that make up such a small percentage of society seems like not a good, efficient use of time. The majority rules here and they are not a majority so frankly I just ignore them.
@@djb3271 not the majority rules, but the rich minority rules, the 1%.
This is the kind of cancel culture I can rally behind
Everyone is so serious. We put labels on everything and everything. Just live and help your neighbor.
I'm yes, we take our children very seriously. They admitted (Alissa) that they were looking for younger drinkers and Dylan Mulvaney's audience are young. They ARE going after our kids! They are trying to groom. That's why we're serious AF.
@@SimpleLifeAlways81 I have the awful feeling you're 90% of your news news from Faux News.
@@SimpleLifeAlways81 But 21 year olds are not children. Just like college students are not "kids", they're adults. Young adults, sure, but adults.
Hey, I'm happy to see Bud Light get boycotted over taking positions on controversial issues, especially Woke activism targeting corporatism to compel compliance and alliance - far more than mere tolerance and civil rights, as we all deserve.
But these are not children. That's ridiculous.
Says the bleeding hard hyperemotional boy stuck in a man’s body who can’t even help out his own family but comes to virtue signal online pound salt
@@nickpalmer710 You're one of those people who thinks exclusively in memes, aren't you? Have you ever even considered critical thinking? Why don't you tell me how fighting for the right to bring children to drag shows, teaching them about gender and sexuality before the age of ten, or inviting them to speak privately about their "issues" with grown male strangers online-- Note these are only three examples-- Tell me how this is different from "grooming"?
Like they care about the 0.1% of money they lost to gays compared to the 99.9% they already lost to their core customers. It's like a mosquito while you bleeding out. Oh, "Drop in the Bucket." their boycott is meaningless.
I'm so glad I don't drink. 😆 That sounds like a headache 😩
The lesson should be, STAY OUT OF POLITICS and stop crapping on your customers
Sounds like just crappy customers.
How is sending an influencer who happens to be LGBTQ some custom cans "Getting involved in politics"? If a company did the same thing for a straight influencer would anyone especially the LGBTQ community care? no.... nobody would... so what's up with the double standards here?
I guess it's impossible to support anyone that isn't white and straight in the USA without being labeled by a certain group as "political". Great job America!
@@billythekidder7182 lol, yea, blame the customers for a bad advertising campaign...
Bud Light is just barley-flavored tap water infused with a few hops.
Right!?! Like who is drinking this in 2023?!! And why??
That's the definition of beer in general.
AB- In Bev brands include Goose Island, Corona, Stella Artois, Anheuser Busch portfolio and others.
The LGBTQ community always making it about them. Honestly 95% of America doesn't care who you are or what you do. However when you force your beliefs on others or ask for a cookie as a reward for being "brave" stuff like that happens
How not to reach out and make friends.
Bud did not "erase" any community. Come on. They dont have that power!! And certainly dont give a company power like that.
The lgbt community is the biggest ”victims” ever. They will always play the victim card.
"We could have used the company's support then." Yeah, they could have used your support a couple of months ago... imagine that, not supporting the company when they supported you and then being mad that the company, that needs profits to survive, figured out that you were not going to be the source of those profits. I don't even like Budweiser, it's a trash beer, but some things don't make sense no matter who said it.
I literally hate everyone.
Not even his own "people" 🤣🤣🤣
HAHAHA, the fact that they're boycotting them too now, just makes the REAL boycott (the one that affects the company) all that much more funny....
The bigots are the REAL boycott? Haha Loser
Wasn’t this the same bar with the racist puppet show?
AB has brought the left and right together to agree on something, this is amazing!
Elysian beer is owned by AB InBev too. This beer operates 2 pubs & a taproom in Seattle. They ship beer across country so yeah they aren’t for me either.
Ya guys but is Dylan really the spokesperson who should stand for that. I don’t think anyone would have batted an eye if Elton Jon did it….
Elton could do it, and number of others could as well, nothing would come of it, but it also wouldn't be Woke activism, which is what we are at war with at the moment and so all of the players are polarizing.
he's not trans, the idiocy is over not understanding trans. elton john is not viewed as a 'groomer' because he isn't trans, yet Jenner is despite being a literal trans-terf. the idea is that trans people are worse than satan because they 'influence other people to be trans'. Dylan is a 'trans influencer', it doesn't get any more meme level reactionary words than that for these people.
"at war with" 😂 Pick your battles, buddy. You're turning into your enemy.
@@bitwise7924 You have to be deliberately not paying attention not to notice the civilization collapse going on in America - any student of basic history sees the analogs clearly. A lifetime of choosing battles carefully...this is a battle we better have in the political space before the physical conflict space.
THANK YOU! Oh my god, they could have put literally anyone on the can, but they picked a total clown from Tiktok.
And this ladies and gentlemen is what you call touching the third rail.
Almost all of Mulvaney followers are minors. Isnt there laws that made it’s illegal to promote drinking for minors?
i dont get why lgb is sticking up for t they have nothing in common
The brewing giant only did what so many other big corps are doing ie jumping on the woke bandwagon - and they have been badly stung. I suspect a lot of other corps are now, very urgently reviewing their own marketing strategies to avoid suffering the same fate.
After the debacle with BudLight no sane company will support LGBT or any other controversial topic or community :D Those bars should do anything they can to help budlight because anheuser busch tried to make their message popular where it is not ;) Brave mistake, nobody will repeat it.
This is the end!
My only friend, the end.
The end of our elaborate plans
Of everything that stands , the end
No safety or surprise The end I’ll never look into your eyes again
The only things I'm boycotting is the ideas that a person can change their gender and that there is more than 2 genders.
The LGB without the t+ movement is growing.
the competitor's marketing team like: 'hey what happen ? we did nothing , and we got increase in sales ?'
Should have just sold beer and not worry about inclusion then no one would have thought to themselves when they bought beer about who they do and dont support.
Republicans don't "not support" trans people, Republicans _murder_ trans folk.
Wow what an amazingly neutral story. I love how NBC didn't take sides at all...
thats how news is supposed to work
@@heenan1833 oh we're not supposed to hear from the side originally boycotting Bud Light over Dylan? All I heard was the lgbtq side..?
@John Lennon no they literally just interviewed a bar and added the description. You cannot get more unbiased than that
@@cliptrashbin2389 Exactly. Some people are beyond stupid.
News is supposed to report, like NBC, not create the news, like Faux.
Surprise surprise. A huge corporation doesn't like or hate anyone. They just answer to cash.
LOOL so they lost support from BOTH SIDES the marketing failed so baddddd
Even the queers don’t want it. 😅
Let's keep boycotting this brand men.
They upset both sides extremely, both sides are boycotting, the the ceo says no big deal, only 1% of our revenue- terrible attitude, it will be a lot more than 1% before long, and he won't be ceo for much longer, most likely.
My good friend said it best... "That is what happens when you are a set jumper."
Hahaha now they're turning on themselves. This is great.
Now everyone boycotting Bud Light 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. That worked out well.
I literally only bought Budweiser because they were supporting transgender rights. I never actually liked Budweiser. 😂
Now everyone hates Butt Light! 😂
How entitled to think acknowledging the existence of a community is political. 😂😂😂
You know what I do? I'd have another beer. Just a different brand.
So what did we learn?
You guys have enough representation
What is enough representation to you? A whole lot of bigots boycotted Bud for a post that wasn't even an ad, I'd say that shows more representation is needed of people are still that stupid that they feel that way
>Let's support the LGBT+ community
BOOOOOOO!!!!!
>OK OK we're sorry, we'll stop
*_BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!_*
This is why i still dont understand
Companies shouldn’t have a political opinion. Y’all will never learn.
Keep politics away from identity
how is this politics? this is the rights culture war, which they are losing and always do as we keep moving forward
Church
Keep the Bud Boycott going. Boycott Bud into the dust.
There are more of US, right thinking normals, who were once Bud drinkers and are now finding our libations elsewhere, than there are weirdos who are willing to drink Bud to make up for OUR lost revenue.
THEY CAN’T MAKE US BUY IT.
This is why you should not invest in companies with high ESG scores
Remember when they had to explain to us that the lady on the syrup bottle was a slave and now were gonna explain it to our kids why a trans woman was on a budlight bottle
Wow who would have thought that all a corporation cares about is profit. Shocker.
the idiocy if America is just out of control. getting mad over a beer. then getting mad at starbucks over a red cup. like get over yourself its just beer.
Wait till sports fans hear that nearly every major sports league in this country has made some sort of LGBTQ+ sponsorship. I wonder how many NFL, MLB, NHL, MLB, etc. jerseys, and memorabilia will be burned.
The company can show their support by selecting a respectable member of the LGBTQIA+ community to partner with its brand.
People will fight over anything.
Why are people so worried about what other people are doing? Like, it's a beer who cares whose face is on the can. Bigotry is stupid 🙄
It's not bigotry, people are just tired of having this debauchery shoved down their throats by companies. Its about moral principles.
@@duckmercy11 it's on a beer can, are you seriously being religious about beer?
@@trina2361 Literally no one says “bigotry” anymore lol you’re stuck in 2015
This is cancel culture, i thought everyone hated it yet here we are
These people thinking bud light would choose them over money proves how delusional they are
Bud not even an American company, get them out
I love it.
They’re eating their own now!
Why do that?
You could be eating S’mores!
With me!
Around the fire.
While we watch it all burn down to the ground.
Yay, s’mores!
No one should think that crap, its little better than urine.
I will take your word for that
So you drink urine?
I understand your point, but I am not sure where you acquired your frame of reference....you drink a lot of urine for comparison?
The last thing any company wants to be is a cautionary tale.
Send free beer and I'm sure we can all just forget the whole thing.
No.
How is putting someone on the can from the LBGTQ+ community not supporting ?
If you would just take and sell the beer and quit the bowl you put a transfer just put a woman and there wouldn't have been a problem like Dylan is selling Kotex where's he gonna put it up his backside ridiculously
They sell beer dude. Do you need every Anheuser-Busch employee to bow front of you?
They messed up by putting dude's face on a can. When you put someones face on a can you endorse that person. They should have stuck to sponsoring LGBTQ+ events and festivals but dont tie your company's image with a movement
