Budweiser Super Bowl Commercial

[1moretimeagain]

This was on ZZL about 15-20 years ago.

I don’t remember which right-winger it was; but, this person was all pissed off because “the gay agenda was being forced on him.” He said the yahoo! newsfeed was filled with gay news. He wouldn’t believe the posters on the thread that that yahoo! newsfeed was picked for him by an algorithm; it wasn’t a universal yahoo! feed sent to all.

That was funny. I felt kinda bad for the guy.

There is so much going on in the commercial.

First, I think the Freebird was actually an intentional choice to appeal to the Ramrousers of the world. Obviously, it thematically works with the ad and they do a great job with edits to the music, but it is not as good as some of their other ads, such as 2013's Landslide from Fleetwood Mac.

Of course Freebird was an intentional choice. And that is problem #1. We are in the midst of the greatest assault on our freedoms in a very long time, and the Freebird constituency is either responsible or is watching it happen without protest, so fuck that.

Also, it doesn't matter how much is going on if it's all syrup.

On an influencer's channel -- along with many other influencers -- that no one would have seen who didn't want to see it unless they made an effort to do so.

The person who crammed it down everyone's throat was Kid Rock, I believe. And then conservative media. Just as you say.

Kid Rock's idea to express his displeasure by shooting a Bud can really presages our current moment, doesn't it? Get angry, use guns.

Bud Light, on the other hand, tried to shove a trans performer on its customers for no apparent reason other than to virtue signal to woke America - generally not Bud Light drinkers. It was a colossal mistake that this ad, among others, is trying to correct.

You really should try getting pegged. You clearly want to, and there's nothing embarrassing about it. It's a wonderful experience. It might even loosen you up a little.

Everyone sees what they want to see. Im certain boards full of MAGAs are no different in the way they disrespect the libs ballsy enough to post there. I will remind you that Dems are the minority so if you want to disrespect the MAGAs you should bet them at the polls. I just don't see the need for personal attacks from anyone because its not like you are changing anyones mind, homie.

I don't think we disagree.

I assume when you say Dems are the minority you mean in the Senate and the House. With all due respect, I did not need your reminder. Now if you meant that Dem positions on the issues are in the minority, then I would respectfully disagree.

Regarding personal attacks I assume you are not insinuating that confronting posters with an opposing opinion or presenting facts that debunk their posts constitutes a "personal attack ".

Exactly the latter. It was an influencer who simply posted Bud Light cans with her picture on it on a video to her followers. It was not shoved down Ram's throat at all -- unless he voluntarily wanted it shoved down his throat.

Exactly. The outrage can from the usual right wing outrage machine. Then that idiot old man rock decided he needed to protest that house piss he drinks because of it.

I've known and read about worse idiots.

I get what you’re saying but I thought Cracker Barrel made a sound decision to simply try and update its interior look by brightening things up with a lighter, less cluttered look. I liked it but I’m not a customer. For this subtle change, its customer base rejected it since, as you stated, they’re older and did not want any change whatsoever.

Bud Light, on the other hand, tried to shove a trans performer on its customers for no apparent reason other than to virtue signal to woke America - generally not Bud Light drinkers. It was a colossal mistake that this ad, among others, is trying to correct.

The only mistake they mad was thinking that anyone in the LGBTQ community would want to drink that house piss they call beer.

Bud light trying to appeal to me customer bases wasn't forcing anything on you and the other transphobic maga team members. They simple have a trans person some beer it's your choice how you recieve it.

Seeing a trans person doesn't have any actual impact on one's life, just like me watching a dook game during prime time isn't indoctrination me, or cramming it down my throat, or making me a fan.
