Excerpt:
"Like an imbecile in an old slapstick show who goes from banging his head to stepping on a rake, Bud Light on Thursday broke two months of post-Dylan Mulvaney silence on Twitter...with an ad mocking its core customers.
...
In just a one-minute ad, Bud Light drinkers are shown being too stupid to put on shoes before walking across hot pavement, too dumb to put on shoes before carrying a full keg across rocks, trying to slam shut an obviously overfilled refrigerator, sun-burning the outline of a cell phone on their stomach, ineptly trying to balance on a paddle board, walking through a closed screen door and dropping a tray of snacks, clumsily flipping out of a hammock and failing to tap a keg and getting sprayed with foam.

Don't think for a moment that Bud Light's marketing team is now controlled by normal but simply inept people. Beyond its contempt for everyday Americans, there's something about the ad that clearly signals that Bud Light's marketing team is still infected by the woke virus: Consistent with a trend observable across all manner of brands, none of the people who are made to look foolish are black.

The phenomenon is robust enough to provide a steady stream of material for a Twitter account called "White Men Are Stupid In Commercials" (@StupidWhiteAds), which naturally jumped on the Bud Light ad."

    “From their commercials it appears only stupid people and deranged homosexuals drink Bud Light.”

    Sounds about right.
