"Capitalists will sell us the woke we hang them with"
This is still the funniest boycott of all time. Budweiser has tents at pride fests for 20 years and chuds never cared
Gay guys boofing Bud light in leather gear: I sleep
A trans lady that is excessively happy all the time gets a single bud light can with her face on it: real shit
It really does highlight how fucking evil these fucks are that a Trans person being happy was enough to launch a nationwide boycott.
Longer than that. Bud has been a gay beer since Coors had a polygraph test for employees that, among other things, asked if employees were gay.
This is so unhinged I had to look it up and sure enough it's both true and substantially worse than I imagined
The founder really tried to live up to his name of Adolf Herman Joseph Coors.
That's the strangest part of the whole Bud thing and why they fired people over it. Every gay bar, queer event that I've been to has Bud Light everything. They've been sponsoring us for decades and every 
thinks this is something new or somehow over the line. They do the same with cishet places as well. Just ridiculous over it.
Bet that can is a priceless artifact now though.
Why do they call it "Bud light" anyway, does it have reduced alcohol or something? Is there a "Bud strong" advertized to like, the Army reserve? Please explain these Americana details to me fellow light-bear
"Light" in American beer parlance means it's lower in calories and alcohol content. They came about initially because there were a lot of reactions to changing diets for Americans. Lots of stuff happened at once, like a very powerful dairy lobby, increase in high fructose corn syrup, big pushes to gain weight basically. A lot of Americans actually took notice and started developing modern diet culture, and part of that was cutting out beer. Companies responded by offering beers lower in calories. They stuck around because they're less bitter.
Yea there's a regular budweiser comes in a red can. Bud light is so much more popular most people refer to the twp as bud and bud heavy. Light beer has slightly lower alcohol percentage and slightly less calories because the goal of them is that you can drink 20 of them at a barbecue even if you don't like beer.
It’s watered Down beer
Like having sex in a canoe.
Fucking close to water.
Watch me turn $100 into $105
10/10 DD I will be adopting this strategy going forward.
There's a nonzero chance that the campaigns are organized by people shorting these companies to begin with.
I did it with Disney a bit. Bought some shares at ~$78 when the was at it's peak [redacted] and sold for $95 when Kang the Domestic Abuser got shitcanned. Didn't get rich, but a half priced Steam Deck OLED is nice.
It would probably be nice if you don’t use “REEE” anymore
What's the sensibilty on that one now?
It's very clearly making fun of autistic meltdowns
Clearly? I always thought it was just 4chan and twitch chuds melting down not autists, let alone not ever hearing about autistic "meltdowns" as a thing. Thanks for the education.
Yeah naw its always been a dig at autistic people, at least Ive never seen otherwise personally
(also probably don't say autist either? if you're autistic yourself do whatever but otherwise, its autistic people not autistics but if you're doing a reclaimatory thing go off I have no right to call you off)
First place I saw it was on 4chan making fun of autistics, but that was decades ago
I'm pretty sure I've never typed it out but I had no idea either.
Damn sounds foolproof
Ok this is a good idea. What company are they currently outraged at?
why wait for them to be mad, let's all make twitter accounts and invent right wing outrage for shitty companies
True
googling "does the SEC know how to find hexbear dot net" right now
SEC has been defunded for years
COINTELPRO for profit!
Cointelprofit
Coin-telpro
Wsb ahh comment
look for ads with interracial couples involving white women. Also just general LGBT anything, but especially T
That's just bog standard conservativism.
A better bit would be to go online and say we made money shorting the stock of the companies that woke hunters get mad about, and donated it to gender affirming care clinics and planned parenthood or whatever. Like anytime we donate to a charity say we made the money shorting Disney or Budweiser stock.
Literally all you would have to do is find a product with more than 4 colors on it and say it's a gay pride version.
He'll you could probably take a picture of a freezer full of different Gatorade and say they're woke.
GAYTORADE
Works even better if you're a chud influencer or the company "Wokeing it up" as you can also make money by short selling the outrage dip.
Isn't that illegal? :pondering-the-line:
Shockingly no, insider trading applies to "material, nonpublic information" about the company and its economic actions. If you're trading based on advance knowledge of a subscription price hike or a change in recipe, that's insider trading. If you're trading based on people getting mad for literally no reason or a company's continued compliance with a law or social norm, that's not insider trading.
No, shorting a stock, yelling "hey everyone, you should all boycott this company because of vibes," and then profiting when people inexplicably listen to you is legal.
Nah it even theoretically benefits the market's information/price discovery in capitalist theory. "Activist short sellers" stand to make a lot of money by exposing unknown true negative information about a company. Straight-up lying is prohibited as securities fraud, and ultimately if you publicize something untrue or unimportant ("woke" accusations) the price will return to normal as the market recognizes the information was BS. So there's a bunch of firms that essentially exist to scrutinize the finances and activities of other companies, and if their "audit" finds a problem they get paid and offender gets punished.
(The line between straight-up fraud and overenthusiastic PR for fluff is not clear.)
I might actually start investing with this advice, it's foolproof!
Let the record show I had this idea May 31st and then didn't do anything about it. Price is up 18% since then, but most of that started in November so I would have lost money on short-term calls anyway.
conservatives are gonna forget about them in a year, tops
6 months isn't bad. I think the play is LEAPs or literally buying stock on margin, plus whatever short you can cobble together for the rest of the industry.
I'm an investor now 
I actually got in the top 10 of the stock market game in middle school by spending all my money on AB stock when they got bought out by inbev in 07-08. I just wanted to spend all my money so I could play Marble Blast for a semester and ended up meeting the governor at some dinner for all the top placers.
