Okay- but your money where your mouth is. If Bud Light does get back to where they were price wise you leave the board for a month.

I'm proving you and the like wrong. It's amusing to see you trying to pretend the brand is forever damaged by this.

Also, you are here in this thread posting away every day. You seem to care a lot.

Yeah, that stuff is crazy. But I’d have to see who actually called in the threat. Trannies are a crafty bunch. 

Doubtful. AB threw them the bone they wanted. 

This is how I see this whole shitshow playing out. The woke mob came for AB. AB, knowing that, if they refuse to acknowledge the mental cases,  the mob would come for them and the backlash for being "anti-trans" would kick off. Blackrock would list their stock as sellable, protests would pop up all over the place, businesses would be trashed and, possibly, breweries and distributors would be targeted for violence and destruction. 

So they decide to throw this doosh a bone and make a one off can with his mug on it to avoid the woke backlash. Probably figuring their loyal customers would be too busy living life to notice or care. 

Unfortunately, it backfired. But let's not kid ourselves, this backlash is much less severe than what would've happened had they refused to throw that bone in the first place. 

They were in a lose/lose situation and they took what they thought was the easier way out. 

The sad thing is, they prolly would've tripled their sales if they'd just told the mob to fock off.

That’s a reasonable hypothesis, except their marketing genius form Harvard said different, before the backlash.

I saw this chick on tv a few weeks ago right after the ad came out.  She was just like you’d expect - a clueless, sheltered, dumb biatch - who has so much bias that she sees the world as she wants it to be, rather than what it truly is.  She’s like @The Real timschochet.  She lets the logical, rational side of her brain get taken over by her emotions, which she is too weak to control.  As a result, she’s vacationing with her thin-lipped girlfriend at a cheap resort in the Bahamas.  Have fun on the banana boat ride!

You are the go to guy on who can best regurgitate whatever pissed off Tucker Carlson on any given day. I'm not a "genius" but I realize how guys like you and Reality would think that considering coherent thoughts are tough for you.

Yo - you’re not nearly as smart as you fancy yourself.  You know how I know that?  Because you’re a partisan hack who gulps down whatever cool-aid is put in front of you.  Truth is - you don’t have the intellectual curiosity, or the attention span, to examine all the evidence with a fair, discerning eye. You look for confirmation of your worldview, and when you find it you take it at face value. It’s called confirmation bias.

So yeah, in essence, you’re a sheep.  Look at the bright side.  You have some degree of utility in that you’d help make a fine wool coat. But that’s about it.

Bud Light is transitioning to a new VP of marketing.  From what I heard last night she went rogue and did not run this idea past her boss. Doubt she will ever be near a beer ad campaign again.

Looks like AB knows.  Quick, someone put up a tik tok of some idiot saying it’s no big deal. Actions say different.  We’ll see. But it most likely will never be what it was. Once people move on it’s hard to get them back. Molson and Coors are doing better than before. Looks like that’s where the Bud drinkers went.

I don't think they'll fire her though; she is now a "made woman" of the Rainbow Mafia.  She'll stay on her leave of absence for as long as she wants, then be put in some made up "VP of beer marketing in a devout Muslim country" role making 7 figures to vacation 30 weeks a year.

Origin Advocacy consultants Sean McLean and Emily Lynch have been brought on to advise "general policy regarding the alcohol-beverage industry," according to lobbying disclosure reports filed to the U.S. Senate on April 1.

McLean is a veteran of former President Donald Trump's administration. He also served on the legislative staff of Texas Sen. Ted Cruz.

Lynch has previously held policy staff positions under Republican Rep. Rep. Virginia Foxx and former Sen. Kelly Ayotte.

At least AB as a company moved quickly to get rid of her and correct their mistakes before sales bottomed out. The campaign did not last long so they might be able to overcome the bad press and it will pass with a new advertising campaign.

She was not fired. AB cannot fire her without taking all kinds of risks for doing so. 

She will ride it out quietly, then be reassigned somewhere else where AB has roots and reach. She has been, unfortunately, getting death threats, so that's enough reason to pull her profile and minimize it in the public eye. She has full time round the clock security on her right now. If AB fires her, they will face backlash for it. Being called transphobic or right wing or whatever else. If they fire her, and she actually gets hurt, they'll face backlash that they left her untethered as she was getting threats. 

Personally, I see this kind of marketing decision as completely insane. I don't agree with politics mixing with business like this. But if she wanted job security, now she has it. It's not like they can't eventually let her go. But not for a while. Not without really covering all their bases on it. They don't want her on CNN saying she was terminated from her job because AB is transphobic, etc, etc. 

I suppose that's part of the irony of all this. Elected officials like Biden and Harris want to take everyone's guns, but they are protected by highly trained men with guns, paid with our tax dollars. Then they enable crime and criminals. And then persecute anyone attempting to defend themselves. So this woke lady, bizarrely, is safer right now than most Americans in the country.  The current PR situation is already bad, but firing her now or not putting security on her and if she gets hurt, that would cause a blow up on both sides of the political aisle. 

So yes, she can get appearance fees from The View, CNN, MSNBC, etc, etc. I mean she can monetize this. Someone like AOC can cash in a favor and get her a high profile job somewhere. Make her a public martyr. But she will also have to face threats. Against herself and her family. That's the price of being "famous" or in this case, slightly "infamous"  In my book, no amount of money is worth putting a target on your back. 

Unfortunately many of the radical leftists in here and out in the world will see this situation and try to spin it to smear all Conservatives and all Republicans as violent white trash hillbilly bigoted MAGA types with big trucks and flashing huge Trump flags everywhere. 

Conservatives and Republicans should demonetize anyone who endorse behavior that goes after kids. Mulvaney has free speech, but the pathway there is to target children to get them to also become LGBT. But there should be no threats and no violence from it. Just observe, realize what's happening, take all our money away, then walk away forever. That's the best strategy.

The anti-woke "Ultra Right" beer that was created following the controversy surrounding Bud Light and its decision to partner with transgender influencer and activist Dylan Mulvaney has lost its production deal with an Illinois-based brewery.

Nick Bowes, the president of Bent River Brewing Company, told Newsweek on Friday that they were referred as a potential contract brewer for the "Ultra Right" beer created by conservative Seth Weathers.

"Once we saw the marketing for it, we declined to produce it," Bowes said.

Good thing. Beer companies have learned a quick lesson with the Bud Light disaster.  AB shut it down fast and the other one never got off the ground.

 Keep politics on both sides away from your brew.

Alissa Heinerscheid, Bud Light’s vice president of marketing has been replaced by Todd Allen, most recently global vice president of Budweiser, according to reports from Beer Business Daily and Ad Age.

A spokesperson for Bud Light's parent company, Anheuser-Busch InBev, on Saturday said Allen as the new vice president of Bud Light will report directly to Benoit Garbe, U.S. chief marketing officer.
