Nip It in the Bud

 

As a public service, here is a list of Anheuser-Busch-owned brands in Canada.

Do what you think best. I will be boycotting them all in perpetuity. This matters little; I almost never drink, and never drank Bud Light.

Not just because of their use of Dylan Mulvaney as their spokesman (word is used advisedly); and Mulvaney is offensive on many levels. He is a parody of femininity, insulting to women. He is a terminal narcissist, and it is vital that narcissism never be indulged. It gets worse. He insists he is a woman, and lies should never be endorsed. If he believes it, he is delusional, and delusions must never be encouraged. This is harmful to the deluded., who need to know the truth. He pretends to be a young girl, celebrates his "girlhood," and this suggests the marketing is aimed at the underage, who should not be drinking alcohol. Not to mention suggesting they should doubt their “gender.”

It seems to be mocking the working class, the usual drinkers of beer.

And he is aesthetically disgusting. Beauty and ugliness matter.

But aside from that, this list of brands demonstrates a disturbing level of hidden monopoly. 

Let’s support local brewers whose investments and profits stay in Canada and in our communities.
