“Watching as professional crybabies like Ben Shapiro tried to get people to boycott 'Barbie' because one of the actresses in the film (Hari Nef, who played Doctor Barbie) is trans, and seeing that has absolutely no effect on the film’s success demonstrates that the Bud Light and Target controversies and capitulations only became big deals because Bud Light and Target responded to the outrage as though it were genuine.”

Andrew Jon Thomson@wdlindsy I think what you’re saying sounds likely to be correct but I think there’s also an additional factor which is that Bud Light in particular is a vulnerable target for right wing boycotts because of the demographics of their average customer.
@HelloAndrew The statements in quotation marks to which you’re responding are by Parker Molloy.
@wdlindsy oh sorry, I did not notice the quote marks and since they were not attributed to anyone I think even if I’d seen them I might have ignored them but thanks for the clarification I did not mean to criticize you but my point stands.
@HelloAndrew Sorry it wasn’t clear that my two-part thread was an excerpt of an article by Parker Malloy. Her name is found as author at the bottom of the second post. I normally put an author’s name at the bottom of the first post in a series, but the characters allotted for that post did not allow me to include her name. When I post excerpts from articles, I always try to make that clear by using quotation marks.
@wdlindsy that is more clear I’ll try to remember that next time
