This is so blatantly stupid. You basically say that anyone who calls you what you yourself claim to be is a Nazi. Why don’t you look at your constant messaging. It’s all anti-capitalist, anti-pluralism, anti free speech, anti religious rights, and anti-women’s rights. You don’t like religious freedom and call Christians right wing extremists. You claim that anyone who has concerns about how trans competition and use of female or male spaces is a fascist. You call half of Americans fascists for supporting the Republican Party. You defend your views by saying that anyone who calls out your cultural Marxism is demonstrating Nazism, because some site you visited told you that cultural Marxism doesn’t exist because it’s a Nazi conspiracy theory. So Jordan Peterson and millions of Canadians are Nazis, right? I should just say that everyone who disagrees with me is a Nazi conspiracy theorist. Clearly it’s got you enough affirmation to make you convinced of your own nonsense. You get to be a Marxist without being called one.2 points

I think Trump is moderate on some things and what you say is true on some if not many of his positions, but he's right or far-right on some other stuff. He's a racist authoritarian, for example. His Muslim ban and election denials are no moderate positions. Since i'm a moderate there's a number of general positions I agree with on. His problem is that his rhetoric is often quite inflammatory and he triggered a lot of people. He is a narcissistic megalomaniac. He's no statesmen. If he just learned to STFU & be more respectful he would have done a lot better and might have been re-elected. He was ruined by his own arrogance.1 point

You don't have a $90,000 F350 diesel, a $1000 chainsaw, $200 to fill up or the energy just to get your own? I told ya a lot of people here have no financial sense! LOL Most ads here are $150-$200 not dried or split and most buyers think a cord = almost enough to fill a pickup bed to the lip even if it's only 6ft long... Ford Ranger level to the box $200 listed all winter until the guy takes $100 as the snow melted and he doesn't need the weight....1 point

If you go back over all the posts where you've replied to certain posters, you'll find that regardless of how correct you are and how much evidence you provide to prove it to them, some of them will just continue gaslighting you. They have no shame, and it's not beneath them to falsely accuse you of anything. Your interaction with those people can never be positive. Their goal is always to drag you down to their level and beat you in the mud-slinging contest. You're lending legitimacy and credibility to that poster by pretending that they deserve a reply, and it just encourages them to keep coming back and doing their thing. I honestly don't even understand their life. I can't imagine having a goal of going on the internet and slandering people and lying to them all day. The only thing that makes sense to me now is that some of them are bots or paid shills. At some point you just have to let toxic people like that go, like Bill Burr did with his religion: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Bill+Burr+letting+go+of+his+religion&t=hy&va=t&iax=videos&ia=videos&iai=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DkrvVxzPXlcg1 point

the Kremlin has chosen the path of aggressive war against NATO by proxy or otherwise it is not NATO's role to help them sleep at night it is NATO's role to be so terrifying an adversary that the Russians wouldn't dare cross the Trace under any circumstance Peace Through Strength1 point

Trudeau was saying that if people use the credit available on their cards it will help grease the wheels of the economy. He directly talked about people spending that money and tied it to a successful, vibrant economy. No one who cared about people would tell them that it's their patriotic duty to accumulate credit card debt. It's outrageous and embarrassing. Here's the plain truth: Trudeau is a slimy, smarmy, fascist weasel who has done irreparable damage to our nation's character. You're a fool if you think that any PM of the last 30 years was as incompetent and crooked as that worthless POS.1 point

Personally, I think this whole story is silly. A case of post hoc ergo propter hoc. To believe it deliberate is to imagine, implausibly, that people care enough about a sponsored social media post from a little-known trans influencer is enough to get people to change their beer of choice or their investment strategy in a blue chip company. Are bud light drinkers so transphobic that this sponsorship will induce then to switch beers? Not at scale. Are InBev investors so transphobic that they will dump stock over a post - or do they believe Bud Light drinkers are so transphobic that they will switch brands over this? Not at scale. No this is just a stock blip that is being politicized by the transphobic culture warriors.1 point

I have the perfect solution for this very very critical problem of how life can continue with a trans woman drinking a Budweiser. I mean we have to find a way forward because our entire collective sense of who we are will simply end if we don't. Budweiser needs to create two new brands: Budweiser Heartland, and Budweiser Fabulous marketed to different groups. The beer will be identical.1 point

At that point with all other things being equal, I'd hire the one that I "feel" would best fit into the team in terms of their personal attributes. Maybe the black person came across as a little abrasive or aggressive. If I don't want that personality I'd go with the other one. Of course I can guess what the "right" answer on your test has to be. What I said is not even an answer available on the test. It's just skin colour, A or B. Literally, black and white thinking. That's why it's completely flawed thinking that perpetuates racism. As an employer I don't have time for that. No sir. I'm agin it.1 point

Is it a political statement though? Or is the right just making it political? The problem with your argument is that it suggests banning and blacklisting trans people is normal and non-political but the opposite is political Would it have been a political statement if a business owner never had a ‘whites only’ policy during the Jim Crow era?1 point

Ohhh i'm quite certain you're stupid enough to believe anything. Wow - so "i know you are but what am i" was the BEST retort you could come up with? Man - not afraid to show off that stunning intellect of yours are you Dude you were lying It's PAINFULLY Obvious Nobody thinks you did renos on your credit card and tripled the value of your home. Literally everyone reading that is going to know you're a liar Yep - i hire them literally every day. (well... every week day). But i don't think anyone has to be an expert to realize you can't triple the value of a home with a renovation you put on your credit card. If you're going to lie - pick more convincing ones.1 point

No, it's about selling beer. IF the person is there because they'll sell beer then great. If they're there because someone is making a political statement then people tend to get pissed. They don't want to have to deal with politics in EVERY aspect of their lives. Is coming from texas a political statement? Probably not. Is being young a political statement? Probably not. Is being a professional sports player a political statement? Probably not. Now - what if they hired a sports player who recently went public with his support for nazi's. And was a big nazi fan. And bud noted that they were just hiring him to be inclusive. You think there'd be a bit of a backlash possibly? You see the difference? Sure - and each of those were only about the market segment. But - this was about a political statement to look 'woke' and it was pointed at people OUTSIDE the target market specifically for that purpose. So guess what. Blah blah blah blah leftie bullshit leftie bullshit whine whine... yeah whatever. Lie to yourself if you like. I doubt bud will be anymore. When you try to make simple non political things about politics, ESPECIALLY identity politics, then you stand a very good chance at facing a backlash. And the damage done is too much for it to be some hard core conservatives only - you can bet a lot of centrists and even left of center types decided they had enough. NOBODY likes it. It was a DUMB move which cost them billions and they will certainly learn - get woke go broke. Keep politics out of it, and sell beer. It's pretty simple1 point

It is something that often goes unremarked - everyone has their own disadvantages that hold them back, and many get no love at all. If your fat - that's going to be held against you. If you have langauge or speech issues that severely handicapps your ability to get ahead. If you're disabled or the like, obviously that's potentially far worse than someone's skin colour as far as impediments go. If you're neurodivergent (autistic, dyslexic, etc) you face severe prejudice and challenges in life even though you might be very smart. Often people pretend as tho the intersectional issues (race and sex mostly) are the ONLY reason people struggle or are prejudiced against. But the most important take away from that skit i think is this: Efforts to fix problems with 'social justice just drag everyone down instead of building anyone up, and then there's a backlash.1 point

Which is untrue. He's dead right - there's nothing 'nazi' about calling someone who's marxist a marxist. Honestly @WestCanMan, she just calls everyone a nazi that disagrees with her, and then pretends she didn't REALLY call them a nazi. She's just a lying leftie and a hate filled racist, bigot and fierce anti-Semite. Why are you even worrying about her calling you a nazi, eveyrone's a nazi in her world. (oh except it's not REALLY that you're a nazi, it's that your ideas or your gov't or your actions or whatever are nazi when you push her on it).1 point

So who's engaging in culture wars? Certainly not the company who chooses to give someone who happens to be trans the same opportunity they could give to another person who happens to not be trans. The objectors are the ones making it into a culture war, not the company. It's no more "foisting" than showing mix-race couples on ads - just like mixed-race couples, trans people are part of life, so why object to them appearing in media as a spokesperson? I sure hope this company doesn't fold in front of this, imo, transphobic reaction.1 point

How would YOU KNOW that? Seems like you ONLY consume right wing media and you are just biased against "left wing media" trying to justify your prejudice. No $1.6B lawsuits showing LYING against any but Fox.1 point

I disagree. It’s clearly the conservative culture war It’s not like Bud’s entire marketing strategy and brand is now based on this trans person. They did a little social media gig with ONE trans influencer, probably one of dozens of social Media influencers they do promos with. Conservatives are overreacting to gin up controversy as per their usual M.O. InBev is also a major global corporation with many large brands in its stable I highly doubt the entire corporation is tanking because of this one limited consumer boycott of this one brand1 point
