Should Trans People be allowed to use opposite sex bathrooms?

This is why you generally shouldn't just make blanket statements. They're simply too easy to argue against.

I think that you just call anything you don't like, "Socialism."

In the context of capitalism (like Bud, Nike, Disney), socialism will not mix.

Let's put some money in escrow here in the next few months.

Here is the bet: You will be dead before Bud Light stops being sold.

These are all still for-profit companies and do not seem to be making any attempt to become owned by the collective. I do not believe you know the definition of Socialism.

I stand behind my statements.

Bud's recent actions are reverse discrimination.

You can stand perpendicularly to them for all I care; it doesn't make them right.

Someone will buy the brand when they go belly-up, so it'll continue to be sold for many years.

If the buyer doesn't try to incorporate socialism into their business model.

Bud wasn't right.

Now they have to pay the price.

I considered that, which is why I went with Bud Light being sold, specifically. I don't want to bet that AB InBev continues to operate as a company because, for all I know, it gets bought by Amazon, or something crazy like that. They could also simply change the corporate moniker without anything else about the company changing, then it could be argued I lost. They could be taken private, then it could be argued I lost.

Any of those things could happen with or without the company embracing whatever the word, "Socialism," means to you.

Do you dislike broccoli? Do you yell at your wife, "Don't put that socialism on my plate!!!," if she tries to make you eat it?

The stock is down less than 1% over the last five days and up for the month; it would appear this decision has been an absolute disaster for them.

The firm BUD was already in trouble.

Their stock price dropped by half during 2016-2020.

It has room for another similar haircut, now that they are practicing reverse discrimination.

I'd guess their numbers were weak as the result of retaliation by the LGTB community.

They were at least accused of favoring anti-LGTB through political contributions.

So their issue apparently was already centered around discrimination.



Then BUD practiced reverse discrimination.



A home environment is social and not capitalistic.
