Gunmaker Heckler & Koch tweeted agreement Tuesday with Miller Lite’s woke campaign against using sexy women — “bunnies” — to sell products, then doubled down in a second tweet, describing ad campaigns that objectify women as “trash marketing.”
On Monday, Graham Allen tweeted the Miller Light commercial, expressing his shock that Miller Lite appeared to repeat Bud Light’s mistake.
He wrote, “Did NOBODY learn from Bud Light’s COSTLY mistake? Miller Lite just dropped this WOKE advertisement!!! When will these beer companies learn????”

If anyone doesn't want our: “toxic male masculinity” money, I’m happy to oblige them until they go bankrupt!

Photos of tough women....
My suggestion for captions:
Mama don’t allow no woke Commies here
Mamma don’t allow no woke Commies here.
Come on trannies, come on gun grabbers,
I show you all what it means to fear.
Mama don’t allow no woke Commies here.
(the Limeliters in 1965 and later Johnny Cash had versions of Mama Don’t ‘Low).

There appear to be far too many maladjusted likely-too-young women running marketing departments.

Someone ought to tell Heckler and Koch that “objectifying women” is a bullshit political attack term invented by angry dykes. Don’t let angry dykes do your thinking for you.

Women have always been ‘selling’ products. From cars to Field and Stream magazines. Whoever is complaining just needs to get their jealousy they’ve nevr been asked!

How come its always the ugly wide shrewish far-from-hot ones and mannish ones that scream about toxic masculinity and the “objectifying” of women? Jealous much?

Yup. The MP5 and 416 are just a sample of the military hardware they develop and market. Most Americans are not familiar with HK and until recently, Sig Sauer.

Someone needs to tell Advertising Agencies they need to HIRE SOME STRAIGHT MEN... Maybe some of these companies that a being played for fools should step up to the plate and DEMAND ads targeting the 96% of citizens who are NOT sexual weirdos.

Oh for pete's sake. These articles act as though women were forcibly dragged into commercials/ads. It's just the opposite. The females are there wearing their skimpiest attire in hopes of getting a 'shot' at stardom.
No one, including Harvey Weinsteins so-called 'victims' was forced to do anything. So.sick.of.this.crap.

Sounds like they want to drop using all women as models.
Works for me. Women in ads don’t make me buy anything anyways.

The woman in the miller lite ads poses in bikinis on her social media all the time. Shes marketing herself in bikinis yet saying how awful miller lite is to pay female models to just have their photos taken, like they all do for their social media attention whoring and if they are on Onlyfans, they are whoring themselves out to get paid in that vikini, or less.

HKs market is government storm troopers. This tweet will give them a few more points on their next bid to supply guns to various woke enforcement agencies around the world. I can tell you why: reliability. Amazing handguns and wouldn't I love an HK416 for my collection.
I've well over 5,000 rounds through my HnK USP9 and it hasn't jammed once. Still accurate as all get out too. It's my absolute favorite weapon.
My HK45 just had its first 1,000 rounds put through it without a hitch. Same for my VP9 Tactical, VP40, P30SK, HK45 Tactical, HK45 Compact and my Mark23.
Not a single glitch in any of them. Not one. I also inspect my ammo which no doubt makes a difference too.
