Bud Light Goes Woke, Prints Image Of Trans Influencer On Special Cans
A biological male who identifies as a woman is being celebrated by Bud Light in a recent advertisement.
An image of Dylan Mulvaney, a transgender TikTok influencer, was printed on special Bud Light cans to celebrate Mulvaney’s transgenderism.
Mulvaney announced he was a paid influencer for Bud Light in an Instagram post on Saturday. “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,” the biological male says at one point.
“Check out my Instagram story to see how you can enjoy March Madness with Bud Light and maybe win some money too. Love ya. Cheers! Go Team! Whatever team you love, I love too.”

Rightwing influencer Tomi Lahren ridiculed Bud Light over their decision to celebrate Mulvaney. “So who at Bud Light thought this was the move? Do y’all really think a man pretending to be a woman (in the most demeaning manner possible) is how you sell beer?” Lahren posted on Twitter.

As Outkick noted, one academic paper states that Bud Light’s target audience is male consumers between 18 and 49 years old.
Social media users criticized the advertisement. “This isn’t a parody. Dylan Mulvaney is now the face of Bud Light,” political commentator Ian Miles Cheong wrote in a tweet.

“I remember when Bud Light commercials used to be everyone’s favorite during the Super Bowl They’d have rock music, good looking women, and full contact sports clips Now they do this virtue signaling insanity just days after a Trans terrorist killed little kids See ya,” @DC_Draino added on Twitter.
