I guarantee 90 percent of the people who call for this boycott smash something else made by the same company.

Like always, be about it.

You have obviously not tried the Leffe... A right delight, that beer is. And the recipe has not changed since 1240...

Hoegaarden is good too. Anheuser-Busch has also bought up a bunch of craft breweries, I know at least Breckenridge and Wicked Weed both brew really tasty beers.

Luckily there are thousands of micro beers available (at least in the US), and I don't have to drink overprocessed swill.

The only one of those I drink is stella. But it is what I always drink when I'm not drinking micro brews.

I guess I'll have to switch to heineken. Poor me.

Stella and Leffe are ones I like to knock back as well.

Not going to hurt anyone letting that go. They've massively nerfed Stella over the years anyhow.

[–]chottohen[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

They don't sell it around here but I'll be on the lookout.

[–]Evola 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

They're European beers.

    Can't boycott a line I never bought to begin with. :)

    [–]Alienhunter 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

    I think it's very appropriate that a beverage that identifies as a beer has a spokesman who identifies as a woman. It's like poetry. It rhymes.

    [–]WoodyWoodPeckerHah he he he hah! 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

    Me too. I drink soda instead of beer. Drinking beer upsets my Muslim friends.

    Apologies for that.

    [–]ChrisChan 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

    Why should I boycott it? I'm transgender as well, like the new Bud Light cans. I will buy moar Bud Light.

    [–]chottohen[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

    All right and I hope that's working out for you.

    [–]ActuallyNot 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (21 children)

    How dare they put an image of a trans woman on one of their cans?

    That's undermining all the lies we're telling ourselves and, more importantly our children about trans people not existing!

      [–]ActuallyNot 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

      Why not put an image of an arab raping a goat?

      Rape is a crime carried out against a person.

      Are we going to keep telling ourselves lies that bestiality doesn't exist.

      Noone's saying that bestiality doesn't exist. But even in this thread people are saying that trans doesn't exist.

      Just because it exists doesn't mean its not disgusting.

      This is the attitude that we might be able to dissolve with awareness. And then the next generation won't have to suffer from your disgust, and the objects of your disgust won't have to put up with it. Win for you. Win for them.

        People can find disgusting what they find disgusting.

        When that involves finding a group of people such as intersex and trans, and trying to make their life so unpleasant that they kill themselves, then it is infringing on their right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

        So you need to go and live somewhere like Iran if you want to do that. In the USA, it is against the principles upon which the country was founded. In the rest of the western world, it is simply against human rights.

        If I no longer see goat rape as disgusting isn't that a win for everyone?

        I don't know. How much time to do spend oppressing goats out of fear of being raped by them?

        What if trans recognized what they are is what they are physically, because to be is a physical condition, not a mental one.

        We know what happens. Their quality of life drops, their depression increases, anecdotally, on the back of that any other mental conditions they struggle with worsen, and their suicidal ideation increases.

        Gender affirming treatment isn't a guess. It's the standard treatment because it has the best outcomes for the patient.

          A person is allowed to dislike or find disgusting any other person they please.

          Not if that oppresses people.

          People aren't trying to make their life miserable.

          You say that, but that's what it does, and the reality is that that's probably the goal, even if those that feel the disgust are not aware of it.

          They are just disagreeing with them because they are wrong and preservation of a society that accepts and respects physical reality is more important than their feelings.

          Who is disagreeing with whom?

          If they commit suicide because someone dislikes them the actual counciling they need is in accepting that people are allowed to have opinions of you and to learn to accept other people's opinions, more so than affirmation.

          They don't commit suicide because someone dislikes them.

          It's against the principles of the foundation of the US to be free to form opinions of people and to speak your mind?

          "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

          It doesn't say we have the right to deny life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness to people if we decide they're "disgusting".

          They don't exist, they're just people pretending to be the opposite sex. There's nothing real about them at all.

          [–]ActuallyNot 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (13 children)

          Exactly!

          And Budweiser are demonstrating the falsity of that by printing pictures of one of them!

          Quick: Get a pitchfork! We can't have our children not lied to! They'll probably catch transness!

          ^ - ^ How to say you’re a groomer without saying you’re a groomer.

          [–]ActuallyNot 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

          Yeah.

          With all these groomers not lying to your kids, they'll probably catch the Trans and you'll have to beat it out of them by not sparing them the rod. On the other hand they might be less filled with the hatred of other genders that seems to be filling you.

          G-nd-r is hate speech against women and Gay people. Nice to know that shitlibs are misogynistic as ever. You can stop white knighting to cover up for your grotesque hatred of women.

          It's a picture of a perverted man pretending to be a woman. "Trans" is an invention, nobody is "trans."

          [–]ActuallyNot 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (5 children)

          You're mistaken about that.

          [–]clownworlddropout 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

          Oh yeah? You saying "trans" is biological? That people are "born trans?"

          [–]ActuallyNot 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (3 children)

          I don't think we know the cause yet, nor when that occurs.

          [–]clownworlddropout 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

          Because it doesn't occur, it's not biological. We are our bodies and our bodies are sexed. We're a sexually dimorphic species, and each of our two sexes informed our concepts surrounding our two genders. You can be straight, you can be gay, but you can not be "in the wrong body" whatever the fuck that is even supposed to mean.

          [–]ActuallyNot 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

          Because it doesn't occur, it's not biological.

          Just because we don't know doesn't mean that you do.

          We know from how they respond to treatment that Transsexuals, once they pass puberty, will be transsexuals. We also know that there are plenty of disorders that cause people to be intersex, and we are learning that some brain structures are sexually dimorphic. Certainly there are common behavioural disorders that favor one gender more than the other.

          can not be "in the wrong body" whatever the fuck that is even supposed to mean.

          It means the gender of your brain is different to the one of your body.

          [–]clownworlddropout 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

          It means the gender of your brain is different to the one of your body.

          That's just being gay! Making meat mâché out of your own body parts doesn't change who a person is and it doesn't make you a new type of person. "Trans" is something someone does, not what someone is.

          And even intersex people are either male or female, they just have a genital birth defect.

          I mean I don't really give a fuck beyond not buying the beer I was already not buying. I think the marketing campaign is stupid. But that's hardly worth my time to organize a boycott.

          Like if some product I buy does a dumbass marketing campaign and sticks shit on the package I don't like, I'll just not buy it. I remember some cookies or something I saw had some emoji movie tie in with the poop 💩 emoji on the packaging and I'm like, "yeah great like I want to think about poop while eating your shit, no thanks"

          So like, whether Bud wants to stick a tranny on the can, or an incredibly fat ugly girl, or hell maybe they can stick pictures of babies with fetal alcohol syndrome kinda like they do pictures of lung cancer on the cigarettes now. They can do what they want frankly. I don't really care to buy their shit anyway, and less inclined to buy it now.

          It's how capitalism works. I've skipped over shit like movies and games before because my feed was mostly a bunch of woke "oh my god it includes the first ever gay unicorn bisexual school bus!" And like I know it's going to just be some one off gag or throwaway line, I'm not actually mad they have it in, but if that's the only thing you are advertising it just indicates to me you don't have a much substance in your product to sell, and it's not worth my time.

          Just don't like the "Rainbow sparkle sparkle" corporate LGBTQ whatever branding. What should we call it. Capitalists colonizing the gays? Gay shit was more fun when the gays organically made their own crap and you got the overly sensitive church types freaking out. Now it's like "buy the beer or you are a bigot" nah no thanks. If we're playing the capitalist guilt trip of "buy x or you are a bad person" guess I'll just be the bad guy then. Ooga booga look at the big scary homophobic communist who won't buy Bud Light! Hide your children they might grow up to drink IPA. Horror! First it's not buying Bud. Then it's buying Tsingtao. Then it's overthrowing the American Democracy in order to install an evil cat based dictatorship run by chairman meow, and the humans will be forced to toil for their lazy female overlords while all the dogs get sent to obedience school. It's a double black diamond slippery slope to a Futurama from the depths of a child's imagination.

          Suspect that they're still the only ones freaking out.

          They freak out at everything they're an extreme minority and barely relevant in the modern era. The new extremely sensitive church types are the wokers.
