What the fuck are you even interacting with me for? You're an even bigger waste of my time than I originally thought. I was mainly just annoyed that you have followed multiple of my posts with your stupid fucking memes. I'd say that I hope you drop over dead from a sudden stroke, but it's more likely I'll stop participating here before that happens.
Also, I know you're blind, but pictures shouldn't take up half a page (Page 14), so quit being a lazy fuck and resize those.
I also think some of you are closeted, for the record.
I'm not even kidding. I swear to whatever exists that I have seen more male sexual imagery on this site than I have seen at every other site I have ever viewed in my entire life, combined.

AB issued a dividend on April 10, moron.
Anheuser Busch's dumb partnership with Dylan Mulvaney came from their marketing VP, Alissa Heinerscheid.
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...lvaney-ad.html
She's a woke chick who felt that Bud Light long had an image that was "too fratty", and that it was "in decline". She claimed that the brand had to appeal to a younger demographic, or otherwise its drinkers would die off or age out of buying it, and the brand would die.
This was supposedly her attempt to appeal to the younger crowd, and introduce the brand to a demographic where Bud Light was no longer doing well.
On the surface this could sound smart, but the problem is that Bud Light isn't in decline because it has an image of being consumed by toxic men. It's in decline because it sucks, and people are simply choosing other options which don't suck as much.
I don't think they will pick up enough new customers from this woke positioning to make up for customers they lose due to the controversy. Keep in mind that this move hurts all Anheuser Busch brands, not just Bud Light.
Dylan Mulvaney is just such a weird person for woke corporations to get behind. This is not a serious trans person just quietly trying to live life after transition. This is a flamboyant gay man who now adopts every negative stereotype about women as if it's cute, and is clearly on this entire campaign for attention and fame. Plus the dude's obsession with tampons is just plain weird.
To say that Bud Light sucks is a major understatement. I won't drink it. Not because of this recent bullshit. But, because it tastes awful. If i go somewhere and they only have Bud Light, I will drink agua..
En boca cerrada, no entran moscas
The beer does suck, but a lot of beer that sucks have made resurgences.
What made it such an idiotic move was not grasping who currently drinks her beer. I pay attention to what young poor people drink out of curiosity. Or what middle-aged blue collar dudes drink.
I see a lot of Busch Light now being drank amongst the dive bar crowd. Having owned more than a few neighborhood bars, that surprises me. I was long out of that world by the time that transition took place. Busch was considered garbage then. I recall the PBR hipster period and found it strange that a beer I associated with steel workers from another generation became hip with kids.
It’s a lot like Champion sports wear. Champion was garbage on a rack for $8 for decades and you wouldn’t be caught dead in it.
In PBR’s case, it was kind of a grass roots movement that was almost anti-marketing and hipsters romanticized 70s culture a lot. From everything I read, there was a concerted effort to run a grass roots campaign that was to never look like a marketing campaign. Really smart. Started in Portland and spread across the country.
In Champions case, they laid out heavy money to influencers to simply be seen in it and it took a decades dead company back into selling $90 hoodies.
Both really smart choices given who they were trying to appeal to.
This was idiotic. Inexpensive shit beer is for frat boys and the uneducated, the group least likely to drink some beer with a fucking ladyboy on the can. They took your grandpas Budweiser and put a chick with a dick on it.
This trans shit is baffling. It really doesn’t have wide support from anyone outside the wokest kids. I know gay people over 30 and most are of the opinion they’re shoving this shit down people’s throats. That woke urban demographic also aren’t big drinkers, they are vapers and if they drink at all, likely to drink some weird alcohol/fruit drink with a Red Bull chaser. They aren’t going to flip to Bud Light, and even if they did, they aren’t enough in numbers and don’t drink hard enough. It’s like the casino business, you make your money off every day problem drinkers. Now the construction dude will get his balls busted drinking some ladyboy beer and some small percentage will switch to another shit beer.
Just incredibly dumb marketing. Might not kill the brand, but definitely will hurt.
I'm going to attempt to address this intelligently and in opposition to the most socially conservative talking points possible, though I understand that I am probably wasting my fingertips.
The first assumption that is in error is that of the majority of loyal Bud Light drinkers being uneducated and inbred Evangelical hicks who would actually give a shit about such a thing. While that may be true in some parts of the United States, there is simply no getting around the fact that Bud Light remains the number one selling beer, in the world, as part of the #1 selling brewery, in the world.
I used to bartend. Who drank Bud Light? In short: 75% of everyone.
Even if that assumption were correct for the United States, which I think is debatable because only Far Right mouth-breathers are even going to give a fuck who is promoting Bud Light, the company looks financially strong in just about every respect. Beyond that, North America (not just the USA) doesn't even account for 20% of the company's beer sales, so even if this move disenfranchised all US Bud Light drinkers, which it won't, it hardly matters when AB InBev could literally lose the entire US market and still have massive operating profits; more than that, they would remain the #1 brewery in the world.
AB InBev is headquartered in Belgium, which is a part of the European Union and both the EU and Belgium are significantly more socially liberal than we are, on average. When it comes to the Europeans I have spoken with, they really don't understand why the whole trans, 'Debate,' even if you want to glorify it enough (on either side) to call it a debate is such a hot button topic here.
Simply put, a massive...massive...massive...percentage of AB InBev customers simply aren't going to give a shit about this either way.
And...who do you have representing the mainstream on the other side? You have Travis Tritt, a long since irrelevant country singer who, in order to look like a transwoman, would only actually need to shave his goatee. After him, you have professional poser, Kid Rock, who has made his career switching genres as if playing musical chairs, absolutely sucks and is an idiot. The same Kid Rock who wrote songs detailing the virtues of prostitution, drug use and a, "Fuck the police," attitude---real paragon of Evangelical social values, that one. I guess some of his raps were misogynistic, so perhaps that was good enough for them.
So...fighting out of the red corner, a poser who has never seemed to have any actual values whatsoever and a washed-up country star who hasn't been relevant in two decades.
And then you have idiots who are going to pretend a ~2% drop in stock price isn't just statistical noise in a five day period.
How's AB Inbev doing over the last month? What's that? Up 9.74% and beating the market by over 3.5%, you say? Oh yeah, the end is clearly near.
The saddest thing is you think that you people actually matter. You don't. Nobody really does, but it's cute that you think that.
Never any light beers for me, but I'd have always taken a Busch or a PBR over a Budweiser---nice and frothy mouthfeel on those. Bud is trash.
Honestly, I think it's just a sad state of affairs being reflected that so many people would give a shit about this at all. Trans, not trans, why the fuck would I ever care who is promoting Budweiser and why would that ever change my purchasing decisions? That would be like me looking into every promoter for any other product and saying, "Oh, they're a Baptist---time for me to stop buying that company's shit!" Dolts.
TL : DR---Extreme conservatism is a mental disorder.
(I had to insert spaces or the 'D' became an emoji with the colon immediately before it. Another commentary on where we're at, intellectually, as a society.)
I'm almost done.
And, then...you have Dylan Mulvaney.
What I find most interesting about Dylan Mulvaney is that most Far Right Evangelical mouth breathers are likely to know more about this person than I do. What do I know? I know that Mulvaney is, evidently, some sort of trans individual who AB InBev compelled to promote Bud Light, in some capacity. That is where my knowledge both begins and will ever end.
Probably half of the Far Right Conservatives probably spent an hour plus researching this individual.
To say that they're obsessed would be an understatement. They're like little Energizer Bunnies of retardation; the best part is you don't have to do much to wind them up.
And...what is it that they're worried about in the Bible Belt? Are they worried that their little towns of 1,000-ish people, whose ancestral lineage can be traced back to...what...probably eight or nine people only by going back five generations...are going to suddenly be overrun by trans people and that the property values on their shanties are going to drop?
Could you imagine---some guy takes a trip to Kohl's with his stupid, mouth-breathing, Evangelical family of retards...
"Oh my God, Billy Bob, I took the ol' bitch and the little shits to Kohl's and there was one of them heshes there. It was terrible!"
"What happened, Jethro?"
"Lord have mercy, Billy Bob, but this person asked if an employee could check the back to see if they had a pair of shoes they wanted in their size, then they bought some clothes...it was terrible! Worst part was I had the kids with me---Atticus is only six and HE SAW THAT!!! What if he becomes one of them tranny queers now?"
"Just make sure to pray, Jethro. Ain't no child of a man who prayed ever turned into any queer. Not once, ever. God willin' and the creek don't rise he'll never even see such a thing again."
Bunch of fucking retards. A little bit of nuance. This whole men in womens' sports thing wouldn't even be happening right now, or, if it did, we'd all be on the same side (against) if it wasn't for the Evangelicals constantly fueling the fire. First it was gay panic, now it's trans panic.
Of course the Far Left is going to validate this shit---because they know it pisses you off! If the Evangelicals would simply learn to stop giving a shit about things that, for the most part, don't impact them personally, then the other side wouldn't get such delight in shoving it further down their throats.
So much free real estate in the minds of social conservatives; of course, since so much of their brains consist of vacant lots, I guess it makes sense.
30 Pages? Extremism is the key word as far as mental disorders are concerned.
The adjective “extreme” is associated with a minority. It’s played out on this forum increasingly.
When you have American citizens backing communist Russia you are witnessing extremism
