I kept hearing about this thing called March Madness.
And I thought we were all just having a hectic month, but
it turns out it has something to do with sports and
I'm not sure exactly which sport, but either way it's a cause to celebrate.
This month I celebrated my day 365 of womanhood and
Bud Light sent me possibly the best gift ever, a can with my face on it.
>> Dylan Mulvaney was celebrating the fact that
Bud Light had sent a special beer can over to her.
Of course, she's a TikTok star who has been basically documenting her transition.
Now, of course, that simple video led to a little bit of a hissy fit on the right.
And I gotta say some portions of that tantrum are amusing to watch and
we're gonna see what I'm talking about in just a moment.
Now, a little more context into what Budweiser was doing here.
So Mulvaney, who has about 11 million followers on TikTok recently
celebrated the one year anniversary of her days of womanhood series
in which she documents the everyday highs and lows of transitioning, okay?
That's why Bud Light sent her that special can of beer.
Now, let's get to the crazy reactions starting with,
I think the most unhinged, let's watch.
>> Grandpa is feeling a little frisky today, let me,
say something to all of you and be as clear and concise as possible.
[NOISE]
Bud Light and Anheuser-Busch,
have a terrific day.
>> But who paid for that beer Kid Rock?
Did you pay for that beer?
You bought the beer just to shoot the beer, okay.
I mean, by the way, Dylan Mulvaney is 26 years old.
Why are they so up in arms about this?
Who cares?
>> I mean, look, I argued before guns, they don't do anything,
they haven't saved lives.
But look at that, he bravely saved us from the transgenders.
The performative this is,
it's like whenever Republicans have a problem they just shoot it, just shoot it.
You know what I mean?
Like climate change, shoot it, and it seems funny to me, but
then you just, obviously this is an automatic weapon.
I don't know which one, I'm gonna get at it if I say the wrong one, right?
You don't even know, I don't care, but it looks scary and
it kind of looks like a mass shooter weapon.
So I might say an AR-15 the point is, is, it's a stand in for her.
It's a stand in for Dylan Mulvaney.
I know he's trying to go after Bud Light.
But you know what that is?
In this air, in this moment of massive anti-trans laws and
anti-gender affirming care laws passed throughout this country.
That's just violence against trans people.
And honestly this is the whole thing with you went woke.
No, no, no, Bud Light wants to sell more Bud Light and
I'm sorry if you are coming from the 90s.
>> Exactly, thank you.
>> Your commercials with like two blonde twins being like, yeah, top the Rockies.
I don't know if that was Coors, I don't care.
But all of your commercials, they ain't, hitting.
So you gotta go to the TikTok stars, you gotta pay them some money and
they're gonna get out to the 10 million,11 million followers that she has.
>> 100%, 100%, how do they not understand this?
By the way, for everyone,
it doesn't matter what your political leanings are, okay?
Stop getting upset or giving credit to corporations that only
do things to maximize profits or to market themselves to,
in this case, 11 million people who follow this popular TikToker,
that's all this is about, okay?
Bud Light is not taking a strong stance like, whoa, so risky, so courageous.
No, Bud Light is looking out for their profits.
They're looking for different ways to market.
And honestly, when you think about the demo for Bud Light, which is,
I think young people, young people drink Bud Light cuz Bud Light is awful.
It tastes like garbage.
>> Yeah, it's a step up from urine.
>> Yeah, a little maybe, I don't know, we might wanna do a taste test.
Let's do some focus groups to see if that's the case.
But no, I mean.
>> Don't put that on the internet, Anna we to put that out there.
>> [LAUGH] But my point is this is beer pong beer, right?
This is what college students are drinking.
So it's actually a really smart marketing move from Bud Light especially, I don't
know for sure, but I would venture to say that Dylan Mulvaneys audience is young.
And so it's smart to market this way.
That's all this is.
But yeah, you're right.
>> They''re trying to stick it to white claw.
You know what I mean? They're like, we need to angle,
get Dylan Mulvaney put her face on a can,, it's perfect, it's easy.
>> And it's a special can that they sent specifically to her, right?
So if you're a Bud Light connoisseur and you're also a transphobe, don't, don't
worry, you're not gonna have to drink out of a can of beer that has her face on it.
We do have some more unhinged reactions.
I'm just gonna go to some of the tweets.
I agree with half of the comment here,
although I don't know if we could even say the first word.
So I'm just gonna say it's another, it's a synonym for pee that was tweeted here.
Pee water masquerading as beer hires man masquerading as women.
I don't agree with the second half of that, but Bud Light does taste like pee.
So anyway, but no, I mean, who cares why.
>> He thinks he's so clever.
He's so clever.
Someone fed him that and then someone DMd him that joke and then he tweeted it and
it's great.
>> Tim Pool with this clever one.
Bud Light is college party beer.
Almost no one goes out to a bar to chill and orders Bud Light.
It's trash that young people drink to get wasted.
>> And where's the dunk?
>> You know what?
I respect that, there was no dunk.
It was just a factual tweet.
It might be one of Tim Pool's only factual tweets.
So, you're right about that.
