Bud Light boycott by the numbers (new poll)

[The Duke]

I wouldn't put too much stock in a poll like this. For one thing, we can't be sure just how aware of the controversy people were. People will respond to poll questions even when they're not that knowledgeable.

But let's assume they were aware of the marketing campaign. At worst, this is probably only going to have lasting impact on those who are vehemently anti-trans or anti-woke.



Even moderate Democrats are slow to embrace trans acceptance.

Oh, it will have impact. Most likely on the younger generation which is what they were trying to attract.

In that sense, Anheuser-Busch failed spectacularly. It won't be super-far-reaching, though.

They will lose a considerable percentage of customers for a time.

Oh, it will have impact. Most likely on the youger generation which is what they were trying to attract.

In that sense, Anheuser-Busch failed spectacularly.

Respectfully disagree. I think young people are likely at the left end of the poll numbers in that graphic, saying that the campaign will make them more likely to buy Bud Light.

The damage done will be among Gen-X, who are more conservative than Gen-Z and Millennials. That also brings me to another point. If that is the case and if these demographic tendencies play out, Gen-X drinkers will gradually die off or will suffer from chronic illness and have to stop drinking, whereas the younger demographics will become the dominant consumers.

Their numbers will drop for a while, but only a while.

The poll and all its breakdowns are available via Rasmussen.

Interestingly enough this poll shows EVEN DEMOCRATS are less likely to buy the beer now.

who drinks this horse piss anyway?.........that tells me a lot.....give me a peroni or stella And get the hell out of the way

 

[Hang on Sloopy]

He

sadly no women are speaking up to defend women because of fear....it is the men defending da wimmens....lolol..............so ironic....not one of them dem wenches voted against this nonsense..................you must be so ashamed at your fellow wimmens.....fellow wimmens....chuckle

Which brings us to the point of why support Prog women when they are against you in the first place? They are destroying the Western World with their own selfishness. The demands were met. It is just that they realize the realities for many. Just like guys do. And the worst part is a lot of men are now getting poorer, undereducated and not caring. Many will get violent to survive.

Stella is an AB InBev product.

 

[22lcidw]

It is a shame we do not break up corporations anymore for dominance.

Stella is an AB InBev product.

huh?...i like the taste, all this ab stuff dernt matter to me...lol

 

[Remodeling Maidiac]

Their numbers will drop for a while, but only a while.

Why would you switch beers and return after becoming accustomed to something else? That makes zero sense.
Anyone giving it up by now is likely a lost consumer.
Regardless Budweiser shrank their customer base with this asinine move.
That is evidenced by the removal of the VP.

I bet their sales are down DRASTICALLY otherwise they wouldn't risk further fury by shoving her out

Shows what pussies Republicans are

Hobby Lobby, Chick-fil-A, Gibson's Bakery, and so on and so on. Don't act like you loons haven't been doing the same exact shit a lot more often than the right.

 

[westwall]

And I'm supposed to care?

You replied though, didn't you. So yeah, you DO care.

 

[Dogmaphobe]

Guy goes into a bar, orders a bud light.
Immediately a cowboy, an Indian, a cop and a construction worker come sit next to him.

and the next thing you know, He's in the navy.

 

[ozro]

and the next thing you know, He's in the navy.

Not that there's anything wrong with that....

 

[lennypartiv]

Exactly. It's just a marketing campaign that backfired -- like New Coke.

It wasn't exactly a marketing campaign. They gave him/her a free can with his/her picture on it. He/She made a big deal about it on his/her podcast and it went viral.

and the next thing you know, He's in the navy.

"And he's talking with Davy, who's still in the Navy
And probably will be for life"
