The RW SCOTUS approved Citizens United where Money = Votes. Odd to see RWers complain about the results of their own ideology. LOL

the citizens united decision is open fascism in plain sight, and a blight on humanity.
It was my mistake though, I confused the cheap beer with another. Miller and Coors are seperateky owned.Well, you damn near can't buy a beer that In Bev doesn't own...

I’m laughing that Miller Beer just signed Kid Rock, after shooting up all those Bud Lite cans is he really stupid or thinks his fan are stupid enough to not know Miller is owned by the same company that owns Bud Lite?
Even Budweiser isn't in the Top 20 Lobby spenders....neither is the NRA.

Can you imagine how upset the alt right would get if they found out Blacks were drinking Bud Light?
A new Cheerios commercial featuring a biracial family has prompted a debate over race in America after drawing a host of ugly remarks online.
The commercial features a biracial daughter asking her white mother if Cheerios are good for your heart, and then dumping a batch on her black father’s chest to playfully help his heart while he is sleeping on the couch. Some of the reaction was so offensive that General Mills, the maker of Cheerios, disabled the comments section on the YouTube video of the commercial. General Mills has announced it will not be pulling the ad due to any controversy.
The point I have tried to make, is that the totally ridiculous boycott of Bud ended very quickly when Republicans realized that Bud was a big contributor to their party.
I realized my mistake, Molson Coors has also supported the LBGQT community in the past.Miller is owned by Molson Coors.
More like unregulated capitalism, but I'd agree the results are the same: an authoritarian state.

Kid Rock is still working for a “woke” beer.
it hasn't ended.
Maybe not in your mind, but everywhere else it has.
5 minutes ago, you were claiming that they could not donate to anyone, and now you are claiming that they have stopped donating to the Democrats, based on.... secret information.
The Republicans are begging their idiots to backoff InBev, because InBev used to be very generous to the Republicans. After having their families threatened by the Republicans, my guess is they will be noticeably less generous to the Republicans, but we cannot know yet.
The LGBTQ bigots will never forget, but most Americans won't give a shit.
Besides, who the fuck drinks Bud light and stops? I've never bought a six-pack of Bud light in my life. Only Bud itself and then only rarely.
I bought me a bottle of Bud Light today, makes a nice chaser with Jack Daniels and weed?!!
[FONT=&]It’s not a day on the internet without a fresh batch of absurd outrage. While most of these uproars typically die down quickly, social media’s latest storm has been riding a strange wave of relevance for some time now. And its target is just as surprising: Bud Light.

[FONT=&]Yes, America’s most popular beer has become the latest public enemy among ring wingers on the internet. And the reasoning for this proposed “boycott” is just as ridiculous.

[FONT=&]The backlash began when actress and TikTok personality Dylan Mulvaney shared a sponsored post with Bud Light on her Instagram page. Promoting a March Madness sweepstakes from the brand, Mulvaney also showed off the custom can that the company gifted her in honor of her one-year anniversary of transitioning.
“This month I celebrated my day 365 of womanhood,” said Mulvaney, who has been outspoken about her experience as a transgender woman on social media, “and Bud Light sent me possibly the best gift ever: a can with my face on it.”

There was never a commercial with Mulvaney. Bud Lite sent to her personally a can of beer with her image on it. She featured it on Tik Tok. Kid Rock saw her Tik Tok and freaked out and shot up all his Bud LightThe end was when the executives at Bud Light saw the six billion dollar loss and decided to capitulate, apologize and to air a new commercial sans the freak.
A great commercial with the beautiful Clydesdale and patriotic scenes around America.
And 5 minutes ago, YOU told ME that "there is a trick to get around that". And that "trick" seems to be that AB is an LLC, which means, according to the FEC, they CANNOT contribute directly to political campaigns, but they can form PACs, which is what I think you mean when you say InBev can "consolidate" donations by their American employees. My interpretation of this is that Inbev, being a foreign company, has no dog in this fight, and it is actually AB "consolidating" the donations by their American employees via these PACs. Interpret this as you will, if AB feels that the jackasses are an existential threat to them, they are certainly not going to switch political allegiances over this silly shit.
Maybe you should be aware that the US branch of that company is more than able to make political contributions, Einstein.
