More like a noose.I love how there actually IS prejudice against the LGB because of the albatross of the T around their neck
Investors were told that DEI would make them a lot of money. Corporations, the public ones anyway, act in the best interests of their investors by law. Thus corporate America embraces DEI.To summarize: Every corporation should just shut the fuck up, stay out of politics, and stick to what they know which is making merchandise. The last time I checked they were in the making money business, not the pandering to their shit dick demographic business.

Can you imagine being so stupid and fucking up so badly that you took the number one selling beer in America, and by alienating your consumer base so hard that nearly a year and a half later Modelo still has the title of the best selling beer in America now?Some people fail upward.
did gays disappear the same time as fag0t? hmm
You see this all the time now, for some reason big corporations and entertainment brands are starting to weigh in on political issues, and also trying to go to war against their (often former) fans.I still want to know who in the fuck looked at Bud light, who's only demographics are NASCAR, white trash, college frat boys, and people who have a professional fight record of 6 - 1 against their wives decided that this was going to make them money:
They're betting on the controversy being profitable. Besides, everybody else is doing it, and some are making money on it.You see this all the time now, for some reason big corporations and entertainment brands are starting to weigh in on political issues, and also trying to go to war against their (often former) fans.
Nobody cares about the fans, only the potential for an easy payday. The IP doesn't belong to the fans, it belongs to the rightsholders. They can do whatever they want with it. Alienation of the fanbase doesn't really matter, especially in the short term.It makes no sense to me and you can easily see it's a bad idea because no matter what the issue you're guaranteed to piss off half your user base. If you pick a left vs right kind of thing it's obvious how it splits the room but once you've got rid of all your "problematic" fans, then it just becomes a too far left vs not far left enough amongst the remainder so you never actually get to the end.
Hurr durr Ghostbusters with girls ugh how dare they.It really spins me out how you get losers like Kevin Smith, who apparently hates He-Man and He-Man fans and openly said so, so he decides to do a remake of He-Man where the titular character is barely in it and only exists to be a fuckup. If you want your Vagina Power Grrrlboss fantasy show so bad, for sure make it but why try to shit all over existing property? Anyone who got tricked into watching it thinking it was something else won't survive past episode 1, and then what? This is why I subscribe to all the conspiracy theories about wrecking stuff just so that nobody can be happy any more to prepare us for the pods.
That makes two of us I love Modelo have drank it for decades, with lime wedges and a fully packed cup of ice. Budweiser and Bud light I've always had too much rice in it. I don't really care for the flavor much. Modelo is Especially kino since you can get those 32 oz bottles for three bucks.Can you imagine being so stupid and fucking up so badly that you took the number one selling beer in America, and by alienating your consumer base so hard that nearly a year and a half later Modelo still has the title of the best selling beer in America now?
They have done everything from trying to make people feel guilty about buying their beer to support veterans to I'm assuming dumping truck loads of money on Shane Gillis and Kid rocks front lawns to get them to drink it, all the way to having Donald Trump himself say that people should stop boycotting it... And guess what?
Modelo is still the #1 beer in America. Which is fucked up because before the whole Bud light thing I was the ONLY person I knew who drank Modelo regularly. I have never seen a Modelo commercial on TV. Ever. And it's the number one selling beer in America. Do you know why?
Because they didn't participate in the fad of identity politics. They didn't have to parade around a few pet niggers or trannys in advertisements (to the best of my knowledge) to pander to people. Because they aren't in the DEI business. They never were. They're in the "make a good fucking beer people like to drink" business.
Every single company should follow that example.
