Bud Light going Woke

[Frustration]

This isn't "going woke". This is possibly making one poor choice in placing ads, that's all.

Never really developed a taste for beer (rum is my alcohol of choice, it's the pirate in me) so the fortunes or misfortunes of Anheuser-Busch and its subsidiaries couldn't be more irrelevant to me.

"Go woke, go broke" is very much an attempt to manifest a trend that doesn't exist. With very few exceptions the target for advertising is people under 50 and especially people 18-34.

Companies do these campaigns because:

A) The 18-34 demographic is both very progressive and has much larger share of minorities compared to older generations.

B) It spreads super easy. A one minute promotional tiktok has been one of the major national talking points for weeks.

C) A lot of the people who bitch about this shit are rubes. The over priced Ultra Right beer that they're buying is more likely than not produced by anheuser busch as not only do they produce about a 1/3 of all beer, but they own the trade mark on Ultra for beer.

Apparently, the GOP took down a bunch of their attack adds because Budweiser is one of their biggest donors.

Which DeSantis didn't learn about Disney.

Plus young people are the one more willing to part with their disposable income, which company likes.

Oh, very much true. Isn't it sad though just how easy it is to demonstrate that the free market is a straight up lie? I'm not referring to this non-story about beer specifically. Everything is run by about a dozen corporations. It is impossible to exercise any actual freedom of choice anymore because everything you do gives them money in some way.

And to think there are people out there who have devoted their entire lives to tracking down ''the secret government'' lol. Just look out the window, dude.

But then they wouldn't be the super ultra smartest for seeing past the OBVIOUS front and find the REAL truth everyone else missed. All the wacky conspiracies, the insane "cures" for Corona and autism, it's all in service to the hunt for the elusive "I Told You So". Power and superiority over others, as always.

Plus, if we close all the billionheir loopholes, then the temporarily embarrassed billionheirs, that they surely are, wouldn't be able to use them when they finally gain their deserved wealth. Again, power and superiority over others.

You've never been to a gastro pub? Weren't those invented in the UK?

Go woke go broke outside movies doesn't work at all. All of those boycotts where a game or company does something that fell under 'woke' didn't work at all. I mention movies because usually lately alot of movies that under 'being woke' seems to be failing. Could it really be that? Could it be something else? Sure.

There is some guy that is trending on him dumping all of his Jack Daniels because they went woke too. Good luck on trying to find a company that hasn't gone woke because that term seems to be so varied and loose that you can basically make it sound like:

"Anything that isn't a straight white male who isn't a liberal, loves guns, listens to country and loves his country unconditionally is woke"
