The uproar began on Sunday, before the NCAA men's basketball championship game on Monday, when Mulvaney, a biological male who is documenting his transitioning into a woman on Instagram, posted a sponsored post. The Instagram video showed Mulvaney sitting in front of several cans of Bud Light beer and announcing a contest sponsored by Bud Light.
Pushback against the endorsement by Mulvaney began immediately on social media. One of the first was from singer-songwriter Kid Rock, who took to Instagram wearing a MAGA hat, which automatically counts as violence for some. He shouted profanities at Bud Light and Anheuser-Busch, then began shooting at cases of the beer with an automatic rifle. A video of a guy exercising his freedom of expression for sure, apparently potentially violent for the folks at Wil Fischer Distributing.
Kid Rock is not the only entertainer who has shown up on social media voicing their displeasure with Bud Light and Anheuser-Busch. Country music stars Travis Tritt and John Rich have also stated that they are dropping all Anheuser-Busch products from their tours and venues. Tritt claims to know of other country music entertainers doing the same thing but who are too afraid to say so publicly. Despite drag queens at the recent CMT Country Music Awards, country music tends to be a fairly conservative audience. Tritt may be correct, and other artists and fans will follow.
Anheuser-Busch is a corporation with worldwide reach. But for St. Louisans, where Anheuser-Busch has been an anchor of the city since 1852, there is a great sense of pride in having a global entity right in their backyard. Anheuser-Busch is synonymous with the St. Louis Cardinals, having once been owners of the team. The presence of Anheuser-Busch can be felt all around the city from their charitable works, to the corner bar. Springfield, Missouri is a fairly conservative area. Many people around the state refer to it as the "Bible Belt." It is also the home of the Cardinals AA affiliate. In an area like that, mixing baseball, beer, and cultural issues may not get Anheuser-Busch the outcome of this marketing campaign they thought it would.
While no one thinks transgenderism is going away completely, its 15 minutes of fame may be on the horizon. A Gallup poll from January of this year shows that Democrats are quickly becoming an island unto themselves on the issue. The poll showed that 75 percent of Democrats thought that companies should take political stances on issues, while only 40 percent of Independents and 18 percent of Republicans thought that political statements by companies were a winning strategy.
Alissa Heinersheid is the Vice President of Marketing for Anheuser-Busch. She has stated that
"Female representation is a personal passion point of mine. When we looked at this job to be done, attracting new drinkers, we started out with who we are and what do we stand for."Gareth Boyd is the Marketing and PR Director for Forte Analytica. He echoed what Bud Light drinkers across the nation are no doubt thinking as well. He said of the decision to bring on Mulvaney:
"I really cannot understand their approach for this because their core audience just cannot relate. Cutting your core audience in the hope you can draw a completely new audience in, who haven't been exposed before, doesn't make sense."Will Wil Fischer Distributing decide to reinstate the Clydesdale appearances in Springfield Missouri in the future? Time will tell. A better question might be: Money (or the lack of it talks) — will Anheuser-Busch get the message?

Of course Demoncrats and Satanists and Liberals don't help the situation when they try to profit from the downfall of humanity.
Seems Bud/Anheuser-Busch Inbevs largest investor is Dodge & Cox, so it they who have a full hand of strings to pull, so to snip them Proper , they do have other U.S investments, such as, Bank of NY, Alphabet, Inc/Google, Dell Technologies, FedEx Corp, Fox Corp, General Electric Co, Microsoft Corp, Molson Coors Beverage Co/ Coors/Miller, Occidental Petroleum, Raytheon Technologies, Standard Chartered PLC, T-Mobile U.S, Wells Fargo & Co......etc.
other "labels" of attraction that may require rejecting will also have the big investors behind them, Vanguard, Blackrock, State Street, UBS Group, Morgan Stanley, Allianz and so on.....same applies.
(PS: Note to Anheuser-Busch: I think you will find all those "woke" Democrats vastly prefer their Pinot Noir or Evian Water to your stinky beer.)
They are legally prohibited to sell their dishwater under the name of "Budweiser" in Europe. The brewery in Budweis/Budvar (CZ) successfully sued against this defamation.
No further comment to the ad campaign. Whoever drinks that stuff deserves this treatment ...
Really? A psychologist once said that to me and I laughed. She said whats so funny. I said, ever seen an illusionist or magician, that tricked your perception into believing a person was sawed in half? Gotcha !!
People accept the VERSION of reality with which they are presented.
People’s perceptions ‘’WOODA’ (originally dubbed ‘OODA Loop’) is premised on how people O bserve their environment & next process is O rient. Then comes D ecide process to the observational stimulus/stimuli & finally act. For example if someone here makes a ad hominem or ‘rub’ or Personal attack the person responding can either engage or not engage. They are making a choice in the decision phase of the process. The action is to engage or ignore. The Japanese Samurai KOAN of truth says:
The act of doing nothing at all is the strongest action possible. It’s called the void. Happens all the time in real life 24/7. Similar to concept of living well is the best revenge. Or the dogma of ‘Karma is Justice w/o the satisfaction’ contextual meaning.
‘WOODA’ is what we are all living using Bigger Optics. ‘WOODA’ = W orld O bserve O rient D ecide A ct.
Since everyone’s consciousness is not the same (as there will not be any singularity)`people assess their reality composite matrix differently. Just as they do here. Some people connect other’s do not. Confirmation bias doesn’t teach anything. It’s purely ego at that point. Real independent thinkers could care less if someone agrees/approves/approves/disapproves. They are thinking on another plane/level of understanding the demiurge matrix & what Plato’s Cave actually is vs. what they perceive it is. Maslow’s Heir-ARCH-y of needs is in flux at different periods in people’s lives.
Zeitgeist/Weltanschauung etc. are all part of the ‘WOODA’ matrix construct. A person’s soul & spirit can will absolutely guide them through this tumult of chaos if they are sentient enough to listen.
Coulda, woulda, shoulda, orta,
Then there is Einstein’s take.
"Reality is an Illusion, albeit a persistent one"
~ Albert Einstein
We all speak from our highest level of ignorance. Self included. Some here unfortunately never grasp that conceptual metaphor. You are truly an independent (self) critical thinker (autodidact) who understands this significance & meaning.
My respect & Kudos to you.
The question it raises, is this what is driving the trans propaganda. The psychopaths like Obama are trying to push the idea of men become women as some sort of Satanic ritual? [Link]
So its seems Anheuser-Busch, by contracting with the Tranny to express their beliefs and their company/brand and its employees, is letting the world know it supports SATAN as a matter of corporate policy. And therefore, Anheuser-Busch is also stating it is anti-GOD.
Go Kid Rock ...!!! Crush them ...
“The second greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he is the good guy”—Ken Ammi
These Hollywood people probably think this is all good harmless fun. Little do they understand the terrifying and destructive forces they are waking from sleep. By the time these forces reveal themselves, it will be too late to break their grip. That is not just words, it is the truth.
Meet The "Woke" Rating Score Prompting Brands Like Nike And Bud To Hire Trans Influencers For Ads
[Link]
From the article:
Image of a woke mob posted below this comment.
As the Post notes, the score is monitored by the Human Rights Campaign, the largest LGBTQ+ political lobbying group in the world. So, in other words, keep your score high or expect this at the front door of your corporate headquarters...
The goal is to ascertain the top score of 100 points and earn the coveted ( pause for laughter ) title of “Best Place To Work For LGBTQ Equality.” 15 of 20 Fortune top ranked companies got 100% ratings last year, the report notes. More than 840 companies total had high CEI scores.
A company can lose CEI points if it doesn’t fulfill HRC’s demand for “integration of intersectionality in professional development, skills-based or other training” or if it doesn’t use a “supplier diversity program with demonstrated effort to include certified LGBTQ+ suppliers.” James Lindsay, a political podcaster who runs a site called New Discourses, told The Post that the Human Rights campaign administers the CEI ranking “like an extortion racket, like the Mafia. Presidential hopeful Vivek Ramaswamy commented: “The big fund managers like BlackRock all embrace this ESG orthodoxy in how they apply pressure to top corporate management teams and boards and they determine, in many cases, executive compensation and bonuses and who gets re-elected or re-appointed to boards.”He concluded: “They can make it very difficult for you if you don’t abide by their agendas.” Thus... Image of Budweiser CEI Scores starting from 2002, which indicates to me this has been on the agenda for 20 years.

I can't stand the Mulvaney crap. Why is this tranny even a thing? Matt Walsh pointed out how mentally ill this person is as a grown man dressing like a doll. I only see those clips by these types of shows so I never noticed just how true that statement was.
So, they cancelled the show of some of the largest horses on the planet, that could trample the morons, b/c of safety for the staff. I think the staff themselves probably declined to show up.
Wish they would go bankrupt, with their nasty beer... but I wouldn't want to see thousands lose their jobs over such a moronic decision as to put this awful face on their (awful) beer.
Overcoming Woke Ideology—James Lindsay
[Link]
What Lindsay has discovered is that the Marxist left in politics has shifted from seeking to redistribute private property to seeking to redistribute cultural property. Hence, racial, sexual and other characteristics have replaced economic class as the defining division for the neo-Marxists. Thus, Marxist envy and hatred has been reinvented and now takes the form of critical race theory, queer theory, colonial theory and similar woke ideologies.
