Anytime you're going to put anything political on something that people consume, you're going to alienate people who disagree with it. Personally, going forward I won't be consuming Budweiser products going forward and they could have me for at least another 40 years as a customer.
Younger people are generally more socially accepting of people who are different from them. Younger people are also more likely to identify as LGBTQ+. Younger people are also tend to show greater support for companies that align with their values, even if it is just a cheap ad campaign to gain more consumers.

I guess it would surprise you to learn that the artist who has sold the most albums in the US and the second most in the world is a country singer.

"Entertainers" are the least educated in society. They don't have any real skills to do anything else. Most rely on others to manage their lives because they are incapable of understanding most things the rest of us take for granted to function.

Tell us you never met any entertainers without saying you never met any entertainers.

Younger people are being indoctrinated in school.

Well, she's skilled enough in marketing/advertising to be where she is. What are your marketing chops?

The rest of your post does nothing to address, let alone rebut, anything she said.

There are alot of idiots who work in corporate america. Who knows she could be a checklist diversity hire.

Heck, they want to appeal to the younger generation then how about the women in the video game competitions. The traditional image of beer is something you enjoy after a long day at work or to celebrate an achievement. If the marketing had gone with any of the above then there wouldn’t have been this backlash. By choosing an “influencer” who is a man posing as a woman is to push an agenda instead of pushing a product.
Did you get this upset when you found out Spuds MacKenzie was actually a girl dog?

Older people were indoctrinated in school and church. That's why so many LGBT people were in the closet. Now they're just being told they don't have to hide is all.
