BUD up 39% in the last 6 months. Not even a noticeable blip over the fake "controversy". But what do I know about investing? It's not like I live on a private Caribbean island surrounded by slavegirls, right???
Yeah it was doing really well actually until it decided to get trans activist Dylan Mulvaney (a first-order grifter if ever there was one) to do their marketing. After than it just crashed and sure the bottom feeders have given the stock a slight boost in the last couple of days but the brand itself has been severely damaged as a result, and even the most far left media shills have been forced to accept that.
This is a classic example of using the wrong marketing for your target customer, and now they have to learn from their mistake and try to rebuild their brand reputation which may or may not be possible, depending on the sentiment of the customers who have decided to give their money to a different company. Once you lose a customer, it's very, very difficult to get them back, but time will tell. Right now they're suffering because of the boycott (which is having a provable begative effect on the company, regardless of what the shills are suggesting. Whether this effect is permanent or just temporary will become clear in the fullness of time, but right now, the effect is very real.
Yes, Turing avoided prison at a great cost that likely led to his suicide.
It was a shameful period in history
But many gay people are in prison in Russia, Uganda, and many other countries, but I guess that's OK, because they aren't "woke"...
I don't know anyone tho thinks that's OK. Just because somebody doesn't agree with current day political agendas does not mean that they are in support of the polar opposite. That is a very dangerous mindset that is sadly all too common these days (I blame the media for this sort of tribal attitude, and what society needs is for people to come together in the realisation that just because we don't necessarily agree about any given issue it does not make us mortal enemies)
The media are NOT your friends. Never have been and never will be. They promote hatred, division and chaos and if ever there was a textbook example of an enemy of the state, then the media would fit it perfectly
I'm happy for everybody to express their own opinions rather than be dictated to by a bunch of out-of-touch glorified bloggers with an axe to grind against the entirety of the world. But of course at the same time I expect others to allow me to have my own opinions. You see, we hear a lot these days about freedom of speech, but in practical terms it is all skewed to one side. ie. "It's fine to have an opinion as long as it doesn't offend me" That's incredibly stupid because true freedom of speech is specifically about the right to express views that others get upset about.
Frankly I think getting upset or offended by someone else's opinion is just silly. I get it that you see this in the younger generation that have never faced any kind of real adversity in their lives, and so they have to go looking for issues where there are none, but then overlook the real issues that are going on, usually because the media tells them not to talk about certain things.
Why don't these activist types complain about gay people being treated badly in Russia, China, the middle east and so on? No, instead they insist on telling us that it's only western countries that treat gay people badly, which is not the case at all. It may well have neen in the past, but not for a couple of generations now (Turing, for example, took his own life before I was even born, and by the time I became an adult, being a lesbian wasn't an issue at all (Now here in the UK it took a bit longer before gay men had the same rights as everybody else, but as a gay woman I never felt that my rights were being opressed in any way - of course there are historical reasons for this, mainly because for a long time being a gay man was a crime, but being a gay woman never was, for example)
But I return to my point - why is it that these woke losers shout so loud about the treatment that the LGBT community gets in the west, whereas the reality is that we have the same rights as everybody else these days, yet say nothing about other countries where the community gets treated much more inhumanely? It's like the policeman who insists on harassing someone who parks their car facing the wrong way, rather than going out and arresting real criminals. I guess it's easier to criticise a regime that's not going to punish you for speaking out, which is fair enough but this always results in the wrong target getting hit all the time.
Just my opinion of course - nobody has to agree with it. Opinions are like arseholes. We all have one and most of them stink, but there you go. It is what it is...
And getting back to the Bud Light thing for a moment, I have nothing personally against Dylan Mulvaney - he's a talented grifter, with the ability to use his fake trans status (and yes it is fake - in interviews he's expressed no interest in getting surgery or hormonal treatments but just wants to live as a woman. OK that's fine but then when he says stupid shit like when he states that because he identifies as a woman that makes him a real woman, then I have an issue with it.
I'm with JK Rowling on that one (and no, not because she's a sexy redhead milf)
My biology is not Mulvaney's costume!
