Starshine Posted May 2, 2023 Posted May 2, 2023 This is so dumb on everyone's part. The lack of market research, the transphobes buying the wrong beer and destroying them...
Heartbreak Prince Posted May 2, 2023 Posted May 2, 2023 The marketing employee who approved this has got it have been sacked
shyboi Posted May 2, 2023 Posted May 2, 2023 well even if their intentions were good, what were they thinking? bud light is a beer for toxic masculinity straights you will never see a classy, iconic lgtbq chanteuse drinking that non aesthetically pleasing looking beer
Cruel Summer Posted May 2, 2023 Posted May 2, 2023 This is all so incredibly stupid. The fact that conservatives have nothing better to do than spend their days bitching and whining about a trans woman being put on a can.

This isn’t new. This is just aggressive transphobia.

Both Sides Now Posted May 2, 2023 Posted May 2, 2023 Mess. And they say that “cancelling” is a woke concept

Dylan unfortunately has a very off-putting demeanor and behavior, and really does come off as a grifter who is doing bimbo cosplay to mock women. Edited May 2, 2023 by PoisonPill
Bosque Posted May 2, 2023 Posted May 2, 2023 Republicans are completely unhinged. It’s over for gay people in the USA I fear

People who didn't rock with trans people to begin with? Dylan literally has millions of fans - mostly women. I’ve seen this narrative about Dylan creep up more and more. Is one influential trans woman that scary?

Magdalene Posted May 2, 2023 Posted May 2, 2023 all this over sending one person a beer….******* snowflakes

Like a girls most difficult decision on life is to choose what color lipstick to wear. However she became a bug target if right wing news becuas they feed on hate I’m pretty sure trans people are pretty aware of facing difficulties in ones life
Yog Posted May 2, 2023 Posted May 2, 2023 I swear US republicans & transphobes are scum of the earth… Dylan still got her coins tho
Helios Posted May 2, 2023 Posted May 2, 2023 by the way alcoholics can never stay away from their favorite beer for long. Republicans will come crawling back when people move on from this stupid "controversy."
Bears01 Posted May 2, 2023 Posted May 2, 2023 Well their beer tastes like piss, so it’s deserved in that regard

Off-putting to enough people to cause a nationwide boycott and hundreds of millions in lost revenue, unfortunately Anecdotally, there are also plenty of trans supportive people (like myself) who find Dylan's shtick to be off-putting/creepy and griftery. And Dylan's act was just as annoying as a boy as now as a girl. Edited May 2, 2023 by PoisonPill
