After Bud Light teamed with a contentious transgender influencer earlier this year, former NBA player Charles Barkley attacked Americans who are boycotting the product.
“So I’m gonna buy some drinks for y’all and I’m gonna buy Bud Light,” Barkley told people at an event in California over the weekend. “Hey, let me tell you something. All you rednecks or a**holes who don’t want to drink Bud Light, f*** y’all. Hey, y’all can’t cancel me!”
“Hey, I ain’t worried about getting canceled because let me tell you something, if y’all fire me and gimme all that money, I’m gonna be playing golf every f***ing day,” he continued. “So listen, as I said last night, if you’re gay, God bless you. If you’re trans, God bless you. And if you have a problem with them – f*** you.”
At a golf tournament on Saturday, Barkley defended the beer brand and said similar things.
“I want y’all to drink this f***ing beer,” he said. “I want y’all to drink this f***ing beer. I got three cases of Bud Light.”
“Hey, and I want to say this — if you’re gay, bless you,” he continued. “If you’re transgender, bless you. And, if you have a problem with that, f*** you!”
Bud Light’s choice to collaborate with a transgender influencer has resulted in months of boycotts and significantly lower sales. After the collaboration was made public on social media and dominated the news cycle for weeks, Anheuser-Busch, the parent company of Bud Light, saw its market value decline by tens of billions of dollars.
After the influencer complained that Anheuser-Busch failed to defend him from the online abuse he encountered, the firm responded to him last month.
“As we’ve said, we remain committed to the programs and partnerships we have forged over decades with organizations across a number of communities, including those in the LGBTQ+ community,” an Anheuser-Busch spokesperson said. “The privacy and safety of our employees and our partners is always our top priority. As we move forward, we will focus on what we do best — brewing great beer for everyone and earning our place in moments that matter to our consumers.”
Charles Barkley completely missed the point. Dylan Mulvaney represents a threat to our daughters. Men participating in sports, business, beauty pageants, etc. are replacing biological women/girls.
I am the parent of a daughter and the aunt to a niece and this agenda threatens to erase them.
I do not care if someone is gay or trans but I do have an issue went they get special privileges and rights over others.
I also have an issue with the trans agenda targeting the youth and grown adults that call themselves parents allowing these kids to mutilate their bodies on a whim.
There is an issue with the indoctrination and corruption of our youth and the fact that people who speak against it are penalized and called names.
So, no Charles Barkley you washed-up, has-been of a basketball player.
It is not that I am intolerant or hateful to trans or gays, but chooses to stand up for women and their future.
And not bend over for the latest trend of stupidity..
