    You're Funny!

    'Bud Light sales down 26.1% vs last year in the week ending April 22nd.' [​IMG]
    'Sales of the beer plummeted vs last year due to the ongoing backlash from the brands decision to hire Dylan Mulvaney as a brand ambassador. Rival beer brands Coors Light sales rose by 13.3% while Miller… Show more'

    The Fenway FU as Bud Light Stand has NO customers and the other beer stand next to them is stacked with lines.

    But A/B is 'unconcerned', so it's all good!

    Those weren’t my comments.

    So I should take a Twitter post over the CEO during an official earnings call to shareholders? I will go with the CEO. K thanks.

    Take the actual stock market quotes over both. After all, you know the CEO will twist things to look as good as possible.

    It used to be a good company. I doubt they will come back from this.

    Yeah they don’t actually do that with shareholders. That’s how CEO’s get fired. They state facts and that data is factual.

    Fake news. I never claimed they were. They were put in quotes and the link to the source was included.
    Who cares? Do as you wish. The fact that sales are down 26% and market cap is down over $5B are empirical facts whether they fit the woke narrative or not.

    Oh, I understand that down over $5B in market cap in a month is not the results they were looking for, nor is down 26%, nor are the lack of customers and Fenway.

    But, folks are free to make choices. Why does that bother you so much? It seems like those of the totalitarian mindset hate freedom and liberty.

    Yale and Harvard had a competition. Yale won. Harvard's newsletter stated, Harvard comes in second, Yale next to last. Factual statements, but still twisted to make Harvard look good.

    Again. That’s not how it’s done during these meetings. Not unless you want fired at best, or sued. It can also raise to criminal.

    For what? Can be fired for lying can they? Can't be arrested for anything either. Facts are facts. How they are presented are myriad.

    Not sure being repulsed by a repulsive ad campaign is exactly worthy of being termed counter culture -- but if so, what's good for the goose is good for the gander.

    Kid Rock I am guessing never took a marketing class in his life, but he sure knows a lot more about marketing than Alissa Heinerscheid who has a graduate degree in marketing. Well as we all have observed, sometimes classroom theories don't work in real life.

    I love it because AB always donated more to Republicans, as did Disney. The way the right is going the only people that will donate to them are gun companies and my pillow! LOL

    Yeah, weird thing, even if you donate to the Right and the Middle, The People still aren't for grooming and mutilating their children.

    We're consistently outspent by Dems, yet, still won the mid terms and Dems are convinced they can't win a presidential election without rigging it.

    Americans do not support Hard Left Trans Ideology.

    Clear majorities of Americans support protecting children from the trans-mutilation craze a Washington Post-KFF poll finds. This strongly supports the Republicans and Sensible Moderates and Democrats in 'statehouses and Congress who are pushing measures restricting' trans-insanity in 'curriculum, sports participation and medical care.'

    Most Americans recognize that it's not 'even possible to be a gender that differs from that' observed 'at birth. A 57 percent majority of adults said a person’s gender is determined from the start, with 43 percent saying it can differ.'

    Weird, those are almost the same margins that DeSantis swept FL (60-40).

    SEEING THROUGH THE LEFT'S PROPAGANDA BLITZES

    Alyssa Wells, 29, a behavior therapist in Daytona Beach, Fla.: “At first I was on the side of acceptance, like using the pronouns and stuff, because I want people to be kind to each other. I don’t want people fighting all the time,” she said. But she has come to see things differently. “My concern with transgender is mostly with the children.”

    “We can’t vote until we’re a certain age, we can’t smoke, drink or whatever, but we can change our bodies’ anatomy and how it works?” she said. “It just doesn’t seem like that’s okay to me.”

    'More than 6 in 10 adults in the Post-KFF poll said trans girls and women should not be allowed to compete in girls’ and women’s sports, including professional, college, high school and youth levels.'

    OBVIOUS

    “I think there is an advantage [for trans women], and you can’t put your head in the sand and pretend there isn’t,” said Americo Lopes, 44, an accountant who lives outside Dallas. He compared trans girls competing against cisgender girls to athletes who use steroids. “There is an advantage.”

    'The Post-KFF poll found significant opposition to gender-affirming medical care for children and teens. Nearly 7 in 10 adults said they oppose allowing children ages 10 to 14 access to medication that stops the body from going through puberty, and nearly 6 in 10 oppose giving 15- to 17-year-olds access to hormone treatments. '

    'There is also wide support for limits on classroom conversation about gender identity with younger children. More than 3 in 4 adults said it was inappropriate to discuss trans identity with students in kindergarten through third grade, and nearly as many said the same for fourth and fifth grades.'

    [​IMG]
    Wants the children left to simply enjoy childhood.

    'Valarie Johnson, 67, of LaBelle, Fla., said there’s no place in school for these sort of discussions. “Is that going to help these young people get a good job or a good spouse?” she asked. “Why would you introduce that subject to children when it has no life skills?”'

    'Max Winick, 40, a long-haul trucker from Port St. Lucie, Fla., also feels strongly that trans girls and women have an unfair advantage if they compete in girls’ and women’s sports. “It would be the same thing as letting a man compete in a woman’s sport,” he said.'

    'Transgender people represent about 0.6 percent of the U.S. population, according to surveys, though the figure is higher among those 18 to 29 years old' —more than 3x higher reflecting their exposure to trans indoctrination in schools.

    'The Washington Post-KFF Trans Survey was conducted in English and Spanish from Nov. 10 to Dec. 1, 2022, among 1,338 U.S. adults, including 515 who identify as trans'

    https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/m...olicies-favored-by-gop-poll-shows/ar-AA1aLNAH

    So this poll that shows a wholesale rejection of transidealogy has 38% trans respondents, or, trans were oversampled by 63.5 times!
