Perverts will not accept anything less than total cave in.

gotta love it! A-B now between a rock and a hard place of their own making by needlessly injecting woke identity politics into a commodity beer brand; now BOTH the left and right can boycott it!

For a new ad, Bud should show five cowgirls in skimpy red, white and blue, blasting away at Miller Lite and Cours cans.

I’ve always liked seeing hugely impressive breasts.

I know . . . . When I read the posted translation it sounded so “USA” - today.

If one of my main competitors stepped on their manhood and caused the backlash bud light did, I’d quietly lower prices to attract former bud drinkers too.

There’s always been unhappiness in the gay community with those who want to link the transgenders with them. The link doesn’t make sense since LGB is about same sex attraction and decidedly not about body dysmorphia. Transgenders can be LGB but being LGB doesn’t make you transgender.

In fact, the association forced by activists highlights one of the old anti-gay stereotypes that gay men really just want to be women. Adding T to LGB is truly offensive to that community. It’s done to make the T group bigger to give it more influence and financial resources. + arguably makes more sense because overwhelmingly the HIV+ are already members of LGB, and statistically LGB are more at risk but it also stereotypes LGB as HIV carriers when the disease isn’t exclusive.

There’s tension in the LGB community about + and + know there’s partner choice discrimination in the community. However + activists fighting to decriminalize knowingly and deceptively infecting another person doesn’t help the disdain and suspicion of + members of the community. It encourages creating more + and is disrespectful of these sexual assault victims who will have to manage their disease for the rest of their lives. The Leftist enablers and decriminalization activists are encouraging evil under the pretense of furthering acceptance. They are wrong.

T is also NOT drag or crossdressing. Drag is a theatrical character performance. Crossdressing is a fetish.

A man who transitions to live as a woman but chooses male partners would not identify as gay. Conversely, a woman who transitions to live as a man and chooses female partners would not identify as lesbian. So why is T grouped in other than to hitch a ride with the visibility of LGB social acceptance?

This is about Dylan and not the transgender issue. Dylan is a stage actor playing a character that demeans biological women, their lived experiences and progress over the past century. Dylan is a terrible choice as a (even transgender) spokesperson for beer or women’s products. I suspect lesbian soccer stars Ali Krieger and Ashlyn Harris, transgender Kaitlyn Jenner or even drag royalty RuPaul would not get the same reaction as Dylan.

Do we really believe the popularity of this character on social media would translate into a net increase in beer sales? How did they reach this conclusion? It smells like a rogue effort by an activist and fan of Dylan rather than something done for the brand.

It’s on sale at my local grocery stores, and no one’s touching it. I expect soon they have a BOGO for it, and maybe then someone will buy it. Not me, but maybe some desperate person who hated giving it up.

“The Coors Molson corporation is just as woke as AB InBev.”

Probably.

But they appear smart enough to keep their mouth shut on this subject.

“To me, this is the planned destruction of an American Icon.”

Looks like suicide to me.

What amazes me is that these overpaid clueless CEO’s don’t seem to realize that taking sides in this culture war is asking to be tortured.

Lay down with dogs, you get up with fleas.

They should never have cuddled up to Mulvaney.
