We have to admit, we sat on this one for a while, awaiting the quite predictable ‘HAHA! April Fools’ Day! We got you!’. Alas, believe it or not, it’s real. Bud Light has apparently made a deal with TikTok celebrity, Dylan Mulvaney, who became internet famous pretending to be a girl.
Years ago, Bud Light’s slogan was ‘Up for Whatever’. Apparently, they’re finally following through on that threat.
Dylan Mulvaney has become the new brand ambassador for Bud Light. 🍺
The beer brand even made a special edition Dylan Mulvaney Can 🥤celebrating his 365 days of girlhood.
(This is not April Fools, it’s actually real)

As you might imagine, beer drinking Twitter had thoughts on this latest attempt at corporate force-feeding of trans activism to the general population, who generally just wants to have a beer without having woke dogma pushed on them.
It's almost comical that they misunderstood their target market this much…. I'm still waiting for the "April fools!" from @budlight https://t.co/BEzBcbd09B

Right?! We kept waiting … and waiting … and ‘oh crap’.
Real women don’t drink that swill.

10 points awarded for using the word ‘swill’!
Congrats @budlight for appealing to 0.4% of the market! Your sales should be through the roof!
I mean your other 99.6% demographic might boycott but at least you got that 0.4%!

There seem to be a lot of woke marketing teams that are more focused on feeling good about themselves than doing what’s best for their company.

This is a perfect example of a brand not knowing it’s target demographic. pic.twitter.com/QKrbeHWuZW

What do you think? We think the can looks creepy. The videos of this guy that cross our feed are also quite creepy, to be honest.
Who the hell at @budlight thought it was a good idea to make a grown man who dresses like little girls their new spokesperson?
Brands have to stop listening to their woke creative teams and get in touch with their consumer demographics.
— John Cardillo (@johncardillo) April 2, 2023
This is not an exaggeration. Mulvaney actually dresses and acts like a little girl (not just a woman) in some of the clips we’ve seen.
That’s not going to appeal to the average beer drinker … or sane people.

We seriously don’t believe they’re going to mass produce this can design. They’ve checked the ‘we supported mental illness today’ box, but largely this won’t likely get much visibility beyond social media.
I've never seen a good looking woman drink Bud Light, and it appears that certainly hasn't changed now.

LOL.

Seriously, pump the brakes, America.

LOL! I know this question makes perfect sense in 2023, but it’s the last thing our 2013 selves would have asked.

It’s been quite the journey from ‘don’t sexualize women’ to ‘sexualize men pretending to be women’.
I was a drug addict for the better part of a decade.
I started at 13 with alcohol, and things escalated drastically from there.
Name a drug, I probably tried it at least once in some form.
Even then, I refused to drink Bud Light. https://t.co/dHsW39seXX

HAHA!
Hey @budlight, how about you send a beer to the woman who birthed 5 kids, homeschools, runs a business, doesn’t sleep much or have time to put on makeup & heels as often as she’d like?
That’s a REAL woman. Not the man with eyeshadow & plastic surgery who pretends he’s a woman.

BOOM.
Bud Light pees sitting down. https://t.co/tuNLzsRFkM

That sounds like a great idea. Let’s go!
Yep, there’s quite the ratio going on there.

Twitter is giving the brain-dead brewers a piece of their minds.
You have never put a real natural born woman on your can, but you put a fake one on it? No thanks, I don't buy products from people who slap me in the face.
— Melanie🇺🇲 (@mefbama) April 2, 2023
Fake cans can? Sorry.
Bud Light has joined the women’s erasure movement, and any woman who speaks up will be met with shouts of ‘TRANSPHOBE!’.
The good news is that Bud Light tastes like rain water that someone siphoned out of a tin bucket so it should be very easy to boycott
— Matt Walsh (@MattWalshBlog) April 2, 2023
This is not going well, Bud Light.

Bud Light makes special can to celebrate Dylan Mulvaney's '365 days of girlhood'https://t.co/s7n1ymmjlQ

‘365 days of girlhood’. This editor can’t even imagine what it must be like to be a woman watching all this nonsense play out.
We’ve got your backs, real women!

We can only imagine the Super Bowl commercial:
‘Bud Light presents Fake Woman with Penis. We salute you, Mr. prance around on TikTok pretending to be a little girl guy. Against all odds, at the height of female empowerment, you’ve erased more women than a bad Disney animator. So crack open and ice-cold Bud Light, girl guy, because at the end of the day, you’ve got millions of people calling you a woman, and that takes balls.’
