Anhueser Busch Feeling the Pain
« on: August 08, 2023, 01:03:34 PM »
Looks like AB is feeling the pain and having to divest itself of some of its prior acquisitions to balance out loss of revenues from the bud light scenario and try and head off their shareholders discontent over their falling market share and stock value.

Awe.  Life is hard at the bottom of the glass, but even harder in a Bud Light glass that no straight person will drink.  Too bad you bet on the queer horse.  You were wrong.  You got Woke.  You're going broke.  Sucks to be you!

Here's the thing that puzzle's me about all this ''woke'' stuff. It's been 5 years plus, Kapernick and the NFL. MLB and NBA. Coke a cola, Hollywood, Disney, Target and a few others. If you see somebody banging their head into the wall, why does that make the next person go and do it. Oh wait, I think I made the connection. All of the CEO's, and board people, are college educated idiots. Taught by professors, that never ran a company. I learned, in the mid 1960's, from my father, never mix business with politics. He was a 1950's Democrat, probably more conservative than most of todays Republicans. But, running a small beer and wine carryout, he kept his politics quiet, and took money from any one.

“he kept his politics quiet”…

Absolutely! Things could be so much better if all businesses would do that?

I don't really care if dumbasses businesses air their political views in public. Lets me know what I'm dealing with, and if I really want to deal with'em.

I don't believe she's responsible for the other team members disrespect to the country. I see them as individual acts.

If business, entertainment and sports figures would keep to the middle and keep politics and extreme possitions out, they would all make money.

Business owners/people can have their political views, I just wish they’d keep their business money from supporting politics or political entities. I don’t want to give any money for that support and it pisses me of that I have to limit what I buy or where I buy it as a result.

I hear Modelo  a Mexican beer is number one in America. Even before the little fag got involved. I don't doubt it with the Mexican population in America, and rising. Not a big deal for me, as I quit the stuff 30 plus years ago.

I probably drink 5 to 7 beers a year. They are always either Dos Eques, or  Shiner Bock. I don't understand all the interest in Anhieser Bushs' failure.

My main interest in this is the backlash in AB's bad marketing decision and the reaction across the country. Seems like all we hear, read and watch these days is just how woke the country is going and how we should all be ashamed of expressing any views whether faith based/morally based that opposes the mantra of the left/degenerates that are currently running/ruining our country and our young people.

I figured the backlash would have run its course by now and the consumers of bud light would just grumble at the beginning and then go back to consuming it. That hasn't happened and it is encouraging to see. I think a lot of people are finally sick and tired of being told their values are outdated and finally fighting back. Fingers crossed in saying that and hoping that it continues.

I'm not sure what I posted that warrants that, maybe you can explain how being encouraged by the reaction of people who made a moral choice to boycott a brand that espoused woke values is a problem?

I have been a member of this site for a long time and my posts are out there for anyone and everyone to look at and I don't troll members of this forum and never have.

If my quoting your reply earlier is something you found offensive that is not the way it was intended. It was simply replying back to your thoughts/post with my own.

Wasn't referring to you at all. Read all 4 posts in my last reply again. There is a little "mule troll" that I ignore that sometimes tries to pick a fight with me. Bill expelled his personality from gbo sometime back and hes been "adrift" ever since. Hes lonely. .;)

My apologies on that, muddling through quotes while being distracted trying to handle an elderly mother in law's problem that while minor is of the utmost importance to her takes precedence.

Actually I got banned for 10 days for telling guzzi where to go and mentioned his racially diverse family could go with him. I should have just kept it between me and him as it is a cheap shot to bring in the family... butt that leftie was really pulling my chain with his socialist views. Your the lonely one due to running everyone off with your sparkling personality:)

Just seen a couple picture's of the A-B tents in Sturgis. Absolutely nobody buying their beer. Wonder why they even considered setting up in Sturgis after what's been happening in the last couple months? Even if they pre-paid for their area, they'd have been better off just not showing up.
