You’re wrong. Trans folks are not pretending. They are just as real as you are.
Well if you didn't need my "tutorial," why would you post the picture of whoever it was (Kid Rock?) with a drag queen, as if that were in any way relevant to this thread?

Since this thread is about Bud Light and Dylan Mulvaney's face on the can....
You think Dylan REALLY TRULY believes he is a woman??? You don't think he is either pretending, faking, doing it for money, or is delusional? You think he is as real of a woman as me, your mother, or your sister?? No difference whatsoever?

That is some mighty strong kool-aid.

On gay marriage all of these people were on board as was I. On trans ideology, BLM, etc..there is a lot of silent push back coming.

They will also put pressure on anyone that dares to still use that product.

The Left is really a big group of Bullies. They control the school yard and if you get in their way they will crush you.



When the Woke wake up about a perceived slight they get to marching in an organized mob and that scares most companies. It is easier and cheaper to upset a few on the Right than to risk the ire of the Woke mob because they will come down on you.



It is really scary.
Ummm…..

Groups that have formerly been marginalized happen to present segments for growth and increased product sell. A company like A.B. wants their products to be sold and enjoyed by as many people as possible. Companies have market campaigns for many different segments. GenZ and younger offer growth potential, and what resonates with that generation is not the same as what age 50+ something beer drinkers care about.
It’s actually amazing that it has taken conservatives this long to figure out. Lauren Southern was spouting some opposing stuff a few years ago in regards to this, I’m glad to see that she is more knowledgeable about how these companies market their products and it is really just about maximizing profits.

I still won’t forget her days of pushing white nationalist propaganda though.

Have you ever actually known or intentionally had personal interactions with any trans people? It’s almost a guarantee you know at least one.

"Civilization" to you seems to mean... polished, presentable people as defined by the up-righteous pillars of the community types, who never have anything "weird" about them, and have the airs of kids on an early evening family sitcom from the 1970s or 80s (at latest). They always have "great tastes" in everything and always wanting to get more status (or at least peer glory). In short, it's high school all grown up. In my younger years, I thought adults would have grown past all that, but then I found out later that an amazing number of people never move out of shallowness, pettiness, and judgmentalism.

Answer my question first (I bolded it to make it easier for you), then I'll answer yours. You just keep changing the subject.
