The people “trying to make it political” are the ones who want it to go away - ie, the bigots, who somehow always seem to be on the right wing. Everyone else has to push back because failing to do so means bending to the will of the bigots.
If you want it to stop being political, your energy should be directed against conservatives who keep trying to put people into arbitrary boxes and keep them there.
Blame Republicans. They got upset bud light sent a personalized can or two to someone. At least with democrats and liberals when they say boycot someone it’s for a good reason. Like fuck nestle.
The only reason you know this exists is because you’re on social media reading about it. You’d probably never see this in a store, and if you did it’d be one whole six-pack next to the hundreds of others brands.
I think you may be overreacting, but who knows maybe Gay Water is the next Coca-Cola.
These kinds of products are made pretty much only for pictures to be posted on social media, so if it bothers you maybe don’t browse as much idk
I don’t really think this is fundamentally different from how it’s always been. Food and drink has always had branding, and I don’t see how gay water is truly that much different from any other branding. The only difference I see is that republicans won’t stop complaining about it
I’d probably just buy a different beer and get on with my life. So long as they’re not using their product to actively promote bigotry in society, there’s no reason for me to care.
How would you react if someone prints Jesus Christ, hanging on the cross with bloody hands and feet onto your favourite beer. With a face of pure agony and some letters addressing charity?
That sounds quite metal tbh for beer. I would give it a go.

These companies do it to sell product, not because they actually do or don’t believe in some political agenda. If it works to sell more product, then they are going to do it regardless of how repulsive some niche group in a far corner of the internet finds it.

Being gay isn’t political…
It shouldn’t be.
Unfortunately everyone is trying to make it political which just restricts gay ppl and damages politics in a brand new.
If being gay was just a trait again, we could skip a lot of this circus. But until then, honk honk.

Yes, thank you. Really surprised to see only one comment saying this.
There are two sexualities: straight and political.
How do you figure that? Do you say the same about races too or?
It’s a joke.

If 5 letters fit on the package, Trump has probably tried to sell it.
The real question is whether they came with free ketchup or not.
Never mind. I just used the word “free” with respect to Trump. That definitely never happened.

Couldn’t have said it better.

It’s simply on there because they think it will sell more product

Must be nice to not have to worry about representation.

Your privilege is showing, mate! Tuck that shit in, nobody wants to see that.
Don’t encourage the cishet white ignoramus. You’ll lose a shoe wading through that shit.

Its pretty recent that normal companies havs become explicitly poltical, because if they don’t partipate, they’re seen as part of the problem.

Food and drink are incredibly political in general, this is just one aspect of it.
