If AR15.Com members were to buy controlling interest in stock of AB and then cleaned house and turned it back into a real (good) beer company would it be a success?
Could AB be rescued?

No. It’s forever tainted. Once your brand becomes the punchline is a joke, I don’t think there is a way to save it.

I know a guy that drinks bud light every night. It's his go to beer. He still buys it by the case. He's also a ratweasel cuck with a micropenis - if that tells you anything about people who still drink that piss water...

Nobody I know still drinks Bud Light and no I don't know that many people.

That said, I'm in Walmart at least twice a week; since Bud turned into trans fluid I've seen Yuengling nearly wiped out twice and I've only witnessed people buying Bud products three times. Every one of those three were older than me (I'm 56) so I figure they are either oblivious or woke.

Ad VP girl didn't just appoint herself.

She was hired and I guarantee she was hired after spouting every diversity cliche imaginable during her job interview.  I'm also going to go out on a limb and say she's not some anomaly at AB, but rather par for the course with their senior corporate leadership.

The only ones I'm seeing buying BL are boomers. With that said, majority of beer being sold is Michelob followed by Yuengling, then seltzers, and finally piss beer (Busch, Natty, Keystone). For reference I work in a grocery store.

tl;dr - A-B hires a clueless girl to re-brand Bud Light based on her own warped fantasy.  The campaign fails spectacularly.  A-B doubles down, more failure.  A-B struggles to distance itself, fails again.  Now, the trans community is boycotting A-B for trying to distance itself from the mentally ill.  Major bank downgrades A-B stock.

What @Strela said, not only did she know, many layers up the management food chain also knew.  I retired from major corporate and this would be like our refinery manager, who had complete control of the facility-his word was the final word, decided one day to change the name on the sign out front.  Did not happen in a vacuum and they are covering their asses and the “clueless girl”, AKA woke bitch, should take the fall but as best as I can tell she is still on the payroll, and she is still there because she has a thumb drive stored at Ft. Knox with the chain of approval emails on it.

This. Its not about transgenders...or beer...it's about control. They want to break everything down into small pieces ..pick through the vestiges of the old companies and rebuild it into a controled utopia..where the only companies left will do whatever their overloards tell them to do.

You will buy their products ..or simply not have beer to drink...or a car to drive...or food for your kids. You will obey them...take their mark ...offer up your children...worship the beast or die.

The good news is ....we can know how it ends.

This.

The funny thing is that in this case, the politics made everybody take a second to realize that the product was shit in the first place. That's why this situation is unique and is more than a mere boycott.

It's about punishing AB for its wokeness and contempt for its customers, but also about realizing there are simply much better alternatives in the market.

Politics has downstream consequences. Same as it has down-ballot consequences. If you're at the top, you have to take care of the people below you because your actions at the top can affect them. Welcome to reality, a lot of people seem to forget this.

In addition, until pretty recently it was only available in the NE US. I'm not sure how far they are distributing it, but we have it in OK now. Pretty good timing on that decision by Yuengling!

Got some of the pilsner the other day and while it's not life-changingly good it's actually got some flavor. Looking forward to trying their other ones.

The makers of Bud Lite failed to read their customers.  The same customers that have been buying their beer for generations upon generations.  They are clueless.  Any connection to the WEF and the EU should send a huge message to all of the manufacturers and producers who have signed on to the LGB yadda yadda and the trans movement should feel the sting.  

American exceptualism needs to take the drivers seat.  It appears so many folks in the world want to be like Americans, now is their chance to follow our lead.

Their marketing is why it was so popular. Spuds Mackenzie, frogs, Bud Bowl, Wassup, Clydesdales, "King of Beers", etc. Without the marketing, Bud Light wouldn't be a thing at all.

It just isn't hard to reach for a different 12 pack. There isn't anything magical about any shitty light beer. I mean, drinkability is a selling point.

And look! No dicks!

Don’t buy the brands you know are AB. They are being hurt right now. Just keep it up. Don’t believe that their sales are down 1%. It is not relevant what happens in the rest of the world. A 20-30% hit in the US is devastating. They will lose their dominance of the US market.
