    Interesting Ad but it seems like they are trolling a pretty large segment of america given the news right now.

    Its seems to me this is a Foreign Company trying to tell us what to think about immigration.

    I would like to remind them that when young Adolf started his company we did not have a big public social safety net back then and we had a melting pot idea not diversity and balkanization.

    Very suspicious timing as far as I am concerned.

    I won't be drinking bud anytime soon.

    A public company exhibiting its politics is among the dumbest things I've ever seen.
     
  3. Don't forget these are the same morons who ran the Seth Rogen/Amy Schumer Bud Light ads that were so terrible they had to be pulled. Somehow they thought virtue signaling to SJW's was a good way to sell beer.

    I'm guessing there is a high overlap between Trump voters and domestic beer drinkers.

    Of course, the NFL will be doing its best to offend viewers as well, although they will have to really pull out the stops to top last year's BLM halftime show.

    They already have the Trump voters, now they are trying to appeal to the rest of America? Or do they just think no Trump voter would ever pay full price for brand name beer.

  7. If they run that ad, I think they can kiss off a good percentage of Trump voters forever.

  8. Seriously? Anheuser-Busch is an American company founded and based in St. Louis, Missouri.

    Specifically, which part offended you?

    Looks like an homage to the founders of the company and perhaps a gentle reminder of what America is supposed to stand for. That and maybe the company wants to bookmark itself on the right side of history. But maybe I'm just reading that into the ad. Why don't you tell me what you are reading into it?

    P.S. Who's the snowflake now?
     
  9. And, specifically, what politics are those?

    When I was a beginner I would only drink premium imported beer, but gradually as I became more adept I developed an appreciation for lower cost beers, and finally after probably a million or so I preferred to only drink the cheapest 30 can case I could find. The secret to Budweiser is quantity over a lifetime.
