How to "evolve and elevate" a brand: Women's edition.
Step 1 - Alienate all of your existing customers.
Step 2 - Pander to the tiniest demographic you can find.
Step 3 - Pat yourself on the back and high-five all the other womans for being "girl bosses."
Step 4 - Wait for the inevitable crash and simply walk away like you did nothing wrong, while blaming "toxic masculinity."
Step 5 - Hire a man to come in and clean up the mess.
Step 6 - Beg the original customers to return.
I'll bet money that within a year you'll start seeing Bud Light commercials with American flags, fighter jets, combat sports, motorcycles, monster trucks, and hot chicks in bikinis again. This simply won't last. Until then, I'll find another beer to drink. It's not like there's a shortage of alternatives.

I hate these people. I hate the way they speak. Their cadence is sickening.

They hope you'll drink enough that it looks attractive. They'll make BILLIONS in the process. Sales will quadruple.

How do you work in a for-profit company with stock holders and think projecting your own touchy-feely nonsense into the business mission will help the bottom line - and who is the dolt that promoted this ditz into a VP position for a flagship product ?

The mindset was shared with me by a 20-something at my company. Unless you actively support wokism, you are shunned as a racist, homophobic, bigot, or whatever label there is. Complacency is complicity. Silence on an issue is support for the other side. This is the groupthink they function under.

If they really want to up market share, they would joint venture with Border Patrol and pass out free samples to all the illegal Guatemalans, Hondurans, El Salvadorians, and Mexicans, pouring in, all of whom will be big consumers of mass market beer when they get here. THAT'S where your volume sales and new customers will come from, lady, not from the deviant-American community.

I have to attend a company event and needed new business cards for the particular division of the company. I don't want pronouns on them. The closest I'll get is "Mr." in front of my name. That pronoun shit is for the birds.

I have been a fan of Blacklist for years. Last night a doctor that performs torture on people for information, just seemed "off". I looked up the actor and my suspicions were confirmed. "She" used to be a "he".

I'm getting damn sick and tired of these mentally ill fks having majority influence on EVERY ASPECT of life. They are an infection.

Bud Light says pact with trans activist Dylan Mulvaney helps ‘authentically connect with audiences’
Anheuser-Busch created commemorative can specifically for its 'brand influencer' Mulvaney


By Brian Flood , Lindsay Kornick | Fox News



Anheuser-Busch defended transgender activist Dylan Mulvaney appearing to be used as a Bud Light spokesperson after the beer maker celebrated "365 Days of Girlhood," saying the pact helps "authentically connect with audiences."


The trans activist revealed Saturday that the beer company sent packs of Bud Light featuring the influencer’s face as a way to celebrate a full year of "girlhood" that Mulvaney recently reached. Mulvaney said the cans were her "most prized possession" on Instagram with a post featuring "#budlightpartner." A video then featured Mulvaney in a bathtub drinking a Bud Light beer as part of the campaign.

The announcement was met with significant backlash, with Twitter users describing the ad campaign as another attempt to push gender propaganda, but the beer juggernaut believes the controversy is much ado about nothing.

"Anheuser-Busch works with hundreds of influencers across our brands as one of many ways to authentically connect with audiences across various demographics and passion points. From time to time, we produce unique commemorative cans for fans and for brand influencers, like Dylan Mulvaney. This commemorative can was a gift to celebrate a personal milestone and is not for sale to the general public," an Anheuser-Busch spokesperson told Fox News.

The statement came after many people mocked Bud Light over the partnership. Conservative commentator John Cardillo wrote, "Who the hell at @budlight thought it was a good idea to make a grown man who dresses like little girls their new spokesperson? Brands have to stop listening to their woke creative teams and get in touch with their consumer demographics."

"Might genuinely be the weirdest thing I've ever seen in my life," The Spectator contributing editor Stephen Miller remarked.

Townhall.com columnist Derek Hunter joked, "@budlight: the groomer of beers.
