******ry doesn't sell!
I'm not sure if people genuinely believe someone is going to say, "Wow, if some people say I'm a moron for not believing this, it clearly must be true."

It's not much a persuasive argument. It really just sounds like a bunch of miniature dachshunds barking because the first one one barked when it thought it heard something.

Legal folks... at what point could/would a distributor have grounds for legal action ( I presume civil) against AB? If your tasked with selling a product that by action taken by the patent company the product has been rendered unsellable, and therefore the hit to your business.

I'm guessing a lot of this would be buried in the details of those distribution contracts.

Also... 60%??? HOLEEE MOLY! Be interesting to see if that was a one holiday weekend thing, or if we're starting to see the truer number. Lots of beach, lake, river weekends coming up.

AB got bought out by a bunch of Arabs 10 years ago



What? AB was acquired by InBev based in Belgium with the primary stakeholders from Brahma Brewing in Brazil.


Those damn Belgie-Brazilian Arabs! I knew it was white supremacists behind this Dylan Muvlaney fiasco.
Their management is mostly/largely Brazilians, I noticed. I thought that was weird, guess not given the buyout/history. Like all big places, there are good and bad Brazilians, I guess, and InBev is…the woke flavor.

Harley Davidson has already been rumored to be in financial difficulty before this bud light campaign.

Seems like covid was a windfall and discretionary spending is falling fast.

Heard from a friend in the industry that motorcycle lots are full and they are expecting RVs and boats to follow.

So for them to knowingly get involved in this bud light donkey-show is the stupidest decision imaginable.

The HR and marketing departments for every major corporation are run by woke females. To them, it's not stupid.

Motorcycles, boats, and RVs will become increasingly tough to purchase. Little or nothing down and 2% for 10 years was fine. But now the mortgage is 6%, gas is ~$3 a gallon, and weekly groceries are way up. Until wages bump all but the absolutely most financially stupid or sufficiently high wage earners won't be buying ever increasing amounts of toys.

That said, any clue when UTVs will be coming down?

Ah, here comes the "but you're hurting good people with your meanie boycott" line. Too bad. ****ty decisions have ****ty consequences. So next time, remember that, and keep politics out of your business.

Fortunately, Vanguard has recently gotten out of the ESG business. BlackRock? Not so much.

As Breitbart News reported, Bud Light Vice President of Marketing Alissa Heinerscheid was placed on a leave of absence for her role in pushing the ad. Her boss, Daniel Blake, went on a leave of absence almost immediately after.

"Given the circumstances, Alissa has decided to take a leave of absence which we support," an Anheuser-Busch spokesperson told the Wall Street Journal at the time. "Daniel has also decided to take a leave of absence."

Learn to code. Or go to work for a non-woke distributor.

Just read a bit this morning that AB InBev is majority owned by a couple Belgian families and a group of 3 Brazilian families (collectively they own 50%+).

At the end of the day, those wealthy ****ers own this mistake and the decline of the traded stock is glorious to see.

No forgiveness for AB. Destroy them. Beer will still be drank and those caught at the retailers and distributor levels will eventually settle out with other companies as their volume increases.

Disagree.

Making the brand name a verb, "Bud Lighting," has much more damage to a brand image versus just one person.
