Budweiser Super Bowl Commercial

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 made was thinking that anyone in the LGBTQ community would want to drink that horse piss they call beer.

Bud light trying to appeal to new 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.

If It were ~10 years ago, I would peg UNCBA2007 for it, but I don't think he was around 15 to 20 years ago. Maybe THP? At the same time, my memory is not what it used to be.

It wasn’t UNCBA2007.

Tar Heel Patriot? I just don’t remember which right-winger it was.

He was all riled about how much “gay News” was on his news feed. He didn’t believe the rest of us that our Google or Yahoo! pages weren’t filled with “gay news.”

He literally had no idea that his interest in gay topics influenced what was on his feed. His Grindr account probably had something to do with his feed. That and gay porn.

Wait, what? Is there a reference I'm missing here? 'Cause there is a lot of advertising history. Are you an advertising historian in your spare time?

If you can find a better shot in advertising history, feel free to link it below and we can vote.

Also, I need to amend my prior post. After I predicted Jackie and Shadow to have eaglets in March, a raven ate both the eggs. So it could be a barren year sadly.
 
Eagles are vapid, dim-witted birds and it’s embarrassing that the bald eagle was chosen as our national bird.
Clydesdales are similarly disappointing examples of horses. Big and strong, yes, but without the wit of a Belgian or the panache of a Percheron.
As such it’s fitting that Budweiser would feature these two banal creatures so prominently in an effort to appeal to the human equivalent. Budweiser, the bald eagle, the Clydesdale, the MAGA man. The Mount Rushmore of the dull, uninspired and unfulfilling.

Wait until we get closer to the election. Right wing news will put transgenders front and center.

ETA….your problem is you don’t realize who is “shoving it down your throat” (hint-it’s not the LBGTQ community or Democrats, it’s your own information choices.)

Was that Tarheel Patriot?

That guy was so deep in the closet he was having lunch in Narnia. He would have been sympathetic if he wasn't so angry and self loathing.

THP: He cracked me up. He would call ZZL posters “angry liberals” and that dude was probably the angriest mother fucker I’ve ever seen post on a message board. Like real anger issues.
