Watchman Update: Great Job Everyone! Go Woke, Go Broke!! Now Let’s All Double Down on Knocking Out Target. What They’ve Done Is Even Worse Than Budweiser! Its Evil

SRH:We, the people, will not tolerate all of the sinful sex bullying that contradicts God's perfect species. There is only one man and one woman to marry and have children, and you must do everything you can to avoid Satan's temptations or God will turn his back on you.

When the time comes, God will judge you and say he does not know you, and you will be cast into hell for worldly sin, accepting what is known to be sin, being mentally ill from all trans, homosexual, and animal sex, and, worst of all, child molesters.

I stopped drinking Bud Light decades ago, so when the Dylan Mulvaney controversy exploded last month, I didn’t need to consider if I’d stop drinking Anheuser-Busch’s most popular product.  

What’s clear is that many others have decided to quit the beer over the brand’s decision to wade into transgender politics. According to figures reported in The St. Louis Dispatch, based on data from a Connecticut-based consulting group that focuses on the alcoholic beverage industry, Bud Light’s in-store sales fell 11 percent in the week that ended April 8 from the same period the previous year. Year-over-year sales fell even faster over the next two weeks, dropping 26 percent in mid April. The decline continued into May despite ad blitzes and marketing gimmicks that included $20 rebates—on a $19.98 case of beer. Oof.

Endless ink has been spilled over the controversy, which was fueled by celebrities like Travis Tritt and Kid Rock, who shot up several cases of Bud Light after the Mulvaney ads began to go viral.

Many public figures seemed genuinely stunned by what they saw as a massive overreaction to a single March Madness ad featuring Mulvaney, who drank from a Bud Light while talking cluelessly about the NCAA tournament.

“I thought there must be a piece of the story that I’m missing,” shock jock Howard Stern said on his show.

Writing at Vox, Emily Stewart poo-pooed the Bud Light controversy and predicted it would blow over, pointing out that similar campaigns directed at other major brands quickly fizzled out.

“In terms of hurting sales, boycotts tend not to be super effective as most people don’t respond, let alone stick to them,” wrote Stewart. “Remember the Great Keurig Boycott of 2017? Or Frito-Lay in 2021? Or, more recently, when people were mad because M&Ms were girls?”

Stewart might be correct that Bud Light’s problems will blow over, though I have doubts. Still, critics scratching their heads over the controversy have a point that there’s something fickle and disproportionate about it. After all, Jack Daniels, a brand with a consumer base similar to Bud Light, recently ran its own LGBTQ+ ad campaign featuring American drag queen Ru Paul, and it generated a fraction of the scrutiny. Miller Lite, meanwhile, ran its own “woke” ad that was ignored for months.

In a way, I feel sorry for Bud Light. The company is being singled out for doing the same thing other publicly traded companies are doing: catering to the ESG (environmental, social, and governance) puppeteers who are scoring them on “social responsibility.”  

ESG scoring is notoriously opaque, but the costs of not playing the game are quite real. ESG funds managed some $40 trillion in assets as of 2022, according to Bloomberg, and a poor score can get a publicly traded company booted from a fund just that fast, as Tesla found out that same year when it was kicked off the S&P 500 ESG index despite its sparkling sustainability score.

“While Tesla may be playing its part in eliminating fuel-powered cars, it has fallen behind its peers when examined through a broader ESG lens,” said Margaret Dorn, the executive in charge of ESG scoring for North America. Dorn didn’t feel it necessary to elaborate further.

Unsurprisingly, companies are not thrilled about having to do this ESG dance. While they pay lip service to ESG publicly, a 2022 CNBC survey showed most CFOs supported efforts to prohibit pension funds from using ESG scoring to determine how they invest.

One can see why corporate executives chafe under the ESG framework. Instead of focusing on creating value and serving consumers, companies are forced to dance to the ESG piper’s tune and perform whatever social initiatives a tiny cabal of people regard as important.  

This was always the danger in “stakeholder capitalism,” the decades-old attempt to nudge corporations into serving interests other than their own shareholders and consumers. It subordinates consumers, the very people who should be in charge.

“The real bosses, in the capitalist system of market economy, are the consumers,” the economist Ludwig von Mises famously wrote in his book Bureaucracy. “They, by their buying and by their abstention from buying, decide who should own the capital and run the plants. They determine what should be produced and in what quantity and quality.”

This is the true lesson of “Bud-lash.” Bud Light forgot who its bosses really were. It wasn’t just that Bud Light was serving the ESG puppeteers—who award companies points for diversity and inclusion initiatives as well as environmental ones—and ignoring its own consumer base. The company was openly insulting its consumer base, describing Bud Light as a “fratty” beer and “out of touch” brand “in decline.” It’s one thing to disregard your boss. It’s another thing to openly insult her.

Many see Bud-lash as “anti-trans,” but the response is more about reminding corporations who their boss really is: consumers. These are the true masters in a free market economy; they decide who wins and loses, who becomes rich and who becomes poor. And yes, consumers are fickle.

“They are no easy bosses,” Mises reminds us. “They are full of whims and fancies, changeable and unpredictable. They do not care a whit for past merit. As soon as something is offered to them that they like better or that is cheaper, they desert their old purveyors. With them nothing counts more than their own satisfaction.”

Bud Light was serving a boss other than its consumers, and it really shouldn’t have to. “ESG is a scam. It has been weaponized by phony social justice warriors,” Elon Musk wrote on Twitter after Tesla was given the boot from the S&P 500 ESG index.

Musk is not wrong. ESG is a scam, and a dangerous one. It is embraced by anti-capitalists precisely because it undermines the consumer sovereignty Mises described, and empowers the financial class, bureaucrats, and money printers central bankers by enabling them to manage society as they desire while further enriching themselves.

A famous ancient text says, “No one can serve two masters.” Corporations like Bud Light need to remember who their true bosses are, and it’s past time consumers reminded them. 

HNewsWire:

This boycott must continue, and it must include ALL Anheuser-Busch products, including Michelob, Labatt, Corona (which is already p1ss), Modelo, Shock Top, Land Shark, and many others. Look up all of the products and encourage your friends, everyone you know, stores, restaurants, and bars to stop buying and selling them. Say something if you go into a restaurant and they serve Anheuser-Busch products. I have. And I keep repeating myself. This corporation must be demolished. The brands Bud and Bud Light must be destroyed and never seen again. Every weekend, the company releases new advertisements. A few of them contain Mexicans.

This is not the demographic who drank the p*ss water. They run advertisements in bars showing how much fun everyone is having, and then their bimbo friend returns with a bud light for everyone. No, thank you. They even ran an advertisement featuring Harley-Davidson. It is far too late.

Everyone should simply ensure that everyone they know boycotts this company's products. Tell everyone you know to tell everyone they know to spread the word. This company must bear the costs. They have gained no knowledge. Bud Light is the proud sponsor of the Cincinnati Gay Pride Parade, as evidenced by the advertisements. Today, Google displayed the announcement and advertisements. Annheuser-Busch is uninterested in its customers. IT IS ONLY CONCERNED WITH NOT HURTING THE FEELINGS OF GAYS AND 'TRANSGENDERS' WHO DO NOT EXIST. Good. Let those freaks keep them going.

The company is banking on Americans' laziness. They hope and pray that Americans will be too lazy to continue the boycott, spread the word, or call out stores, bars, and restaurants that continue to sell these products. The company is also banking on Americans' short memories, hoping that this will all blow over soon and they won't remember what the problem was.

They also rely on the large number of Americans who are simply ignorant—those who have no idea what is going on and have not been informed. I've met several restaurant owners and employees who claimed they had no idea what was going on with Bud Light and had not heard anything. I immediately filled them in. Americans must not fall into the traps of laziness and complacency that Anheuser-Busch is hoping for, because that is what will save and re-profit this company. Americans must stop this by boycotting ALL of their products, not just the bud and bud light brands.

The beer industry is reportedly in shock over the continuing effects of the recent culture war over Bud Light’s promotion of transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney.

Annheuser-Busch continues to bleed from the commercial fallout of the ensuing consumer boycott, while competitors are reaping the rewards of Bud Light’s ill-advised ad campaign.

Sales of Bud Light had fallen by 24.6% by the close of the week ending on May 13, while Bud’s competitors had seen a comparable rise in sales:

"The whole industry is in shock. Even Bud’s competitors aren’t really dancing on the grave because they know it could have happened to them," Beer Business Daily editor Harry Schuhmacher told Fox News Digital.

"This particular promotion just really struck a chord. It was just a bridge too far, apparently, for consumers. We’re in week six, and it doesn’t look like it’s getting any better. In fact, the numbers just keep getting a little worse every week—down in the 25% area. And their competitors are up almost just as much, and that’s continuing through today."

Budweiser has offered a $15 rebate for the purchase of a 15-count or larger pack of beer, with the rebate exceeding the price of the product in many markets. This promotion, ostensibly in honor of Memorial Day, effectively gives unsold, unwanted units away for free to skeptics.

Prior to the Bud Light-induced boycott of Anheuser-Busch products, right-wing activism rarely had a long-term commercial impact.

The slogan "go woke, go broke" had rarely appeared in previous woke advertising campaigns. All of that changed when "Bud Light put a theater kid on a can," as marketing expert and writer Isaac Simpson put it.

"Just one step too far," Simpson said. "The ultimate humiliation." A performative homosexual influencer has been painted over the ultimate symbol of the American working class. Simply put, there was no capitalist explanation. No reasonable marketer would ever think that gay elites and Brooklyn dog moms would ever drink Bud Light."

According to industry experts, the bigger picture is not the loss of sales of Bud Light in particular, but rather the damage that the ongoing boycott is causing to other Anheuser-Busch products.

"Bud Light is'sick,'" according to beverage industry consultant Bump Williams to The New York Post. "It's now infected other healthy brands in the InBev portfolio, which is a bigger issue in my opinion."

There is no one in the Bible who was a power for God who did not have enemies and was not despised. The world has been thrown into anarchy. People who continue to get their news from Facebook, Google, or Twitter have made a decision. and keep poking God in the eye. They do not deserve to know the truth.

Until morale improves, the beatings will continue. PSYOP

SRH: Once upon a time, there was a dictator. He used the media to spread his propaganda, and they backed him up. Anyone who disagreed or opposed this dictator was assassinated. He gradually began a campaign to instill hatred for a particular group or race of people. His neighbors were gossiping about their neighbors. He seized their property and businesses and imprisoned them in a ghetto. But it didn't end there. He decided to transport these people by train. Do you understand what I mean? Bill Gates, Biden, and a Band of Renegade Elites

Everything Obama/Bill Gates and his Renegade Health Outlaws have done to us over the last three years—the sense of hopelessness, despair, helplessness, and powerlessness—is a shambles. You filthy, spiritually void, scumbags. Academic sloppiness and incompetence at the CDC, NIH, FDA, and NIAID Everyone who watched and took part recognized the deception of your actions.
