Who is saying you have to "like" them?
Don't drink Bud Light. It's fine. It's the boycott that I find unAmerican in spirit, and anti-freedom.
Sales of Bud Light have fallen off a cliff, the death knell for woke ads has sounded

Like I said before - the whole thing is nothing more than bigotry & hate. I haven't heard a single explanation for this boycott that doesn't fall right back to that.

Serendipity's obsession with the virtually irrelevant trans community is disturbing.
People like he/she/it are the kind of people who need to be mercifully euthanized for their own good.
Apparently, we're not a merciful society.

You fuckers do. You cancel anyone who won't gush over queers and freaks
How is boycotting unAmerican? You shitheads do It ALL THE FUCKING TIME. The ONLY reason you don't like this boycott is because it's aimed at a queer and a freak. That's you myopia but as always yuy people think youre free of the sins you attribute to others. That's why I have no respect for leftists.

I'm working toward a more positive future. I won't get bogged down in this kind of rhetoric & vitriol.
The right's boycott of Anheiser-Busch is going to end the same way as their boycott of the NFL did.
It will create a lot of noise for a short while and then Bud like the NFL will end up more popular than ever.

A positive future where only certain things are allowed to be said. You suddenly think it's unAmerican to boycott because people have to like queers and freaks. They don't have to like it and they dont have to sit down and shut up.

I think a poll where people were asked "would you rather have a world with more hate, or less hate?" would tilt toward the latter response. But I am concerned that the gap is getting more narrow.

Good luck with the positive future, 'tender.
We have to recognize America as a place
where totally incompatible people
are doing a terrible job trying to co-exist under the same government.
If you have the courage to be honest with yourself,
Americans viscerally hate each other.
And it's getting worse by the day.
As long as we continue trying to preserve the republic in it present format,
a positive future is a ludicrous thought.
We're unfortunately a people who believe that moderate solutions exist for immoderate problems,
and until we let go of that fantasy,
a positive future is a pipedream on bad opium.

Really?
All of you Transphobics and Haters accomplished by selling your stock in AB, is make the price of AB stock the most attractive stock on the stock buyers market today.
This won't take long to recover their temporary loss of 3 billion, and will in the end, boost their overall historic value of their stock is just days.
So your sissy fit, will have a reverse effect on what you intended to accomplish.
What happens to shares that are sold? SOMEONE ELSE BUYS THEM, AND FOR A BETTER PRICE THAN YOU SOLD THEM FOR!
Your loss just became someone else's Gain!
On Tuesday, the stock appeared to be rebounding, and that large investors in the company "remain bullish" about the asset. Among Anheuser-Busch's top five investors, three had offloaded a small proportion of their shares in the beverage firm, while two added to their portfolio.
These rises and falls in value are fairly common for such a large company, and could be construed as a normalization of stock prices after a peak in late March. Stocks had been rising from €47 ($51.37) in October and had spent much of the last six months trading at around €56-€57 ($61.20-$62.30).
This rise could be attributed to the company posting revenue growth of 11.2 percent in 2022 on March 2, from $54.3 billion in 2021 to $57.8 billion last year. At the same time, Anheuser-Busch told investors it predicted a net earnings growth of between 4-8 percent in 2023.
Anheuser-Busch has many brands under its umbrella besides Bud Light, and posted positive growth in markets across the globe. In 2022, while it saw a 6.7 percent rise in revenue in North America, despite a contraction in volume of 4 percent, it experienced double-digit growth fueled by increased sales in Central America, South America and Europe.
In a presentation to investors, Anheuser-Busch said its "diversified footprint provides a unique platform to lead & grow," with more than 60 percent of the markets it was in seeing growth. It noted that brands Corona and Stella Artois "led the growth of our global brands."
On April 6, Eddie Stableford, a food and drink branding expert, told Newsweek that boycotts would overall help the brand, as the U.S. is a saturated market and many American names are looking elsewhere in the world to expand into. He suggested they were doing this "by taking an approach that's more appropriate by those cultures."

You should start a thread on this so that 1) you can thread ban anyone likely to disagree, and 2) so we "feminists" here can ignore it.
Bolded so you can read what you posted
Thanks for admitting that I never said what you claimed. As always, you lose. Poor Lyin' Lesion.
IMO boycotts are an expression of opinion and therefore are part of the various freedoms protected by the Constitution. That being said, there is a difference between boycotting a product because you dislike the company's stance on something, and boycotting it because you're a fucking bigot who hates LGBTQ ppl, people of color, or people belonging to a particular religion.
Oh, so you DID go read all my "drivel" and look it up. Now *that's* dedication! Notice the quotation marks, Cindy Jo? Bwahahaha!
You used to be somewhat witty, Legion. Now you're just another pathetic, low-IQ troll. That's okay, you have many of your sort here, Cecil.
