Bud Light's Controversial Impact: From Boycotts to Ghosting, the Unprecedented Fallout

TL;DR Summary
Trans activist Dylan Mulvaney reveals that Bud Light failed to support her after a beer promotion led to intense bullying and transphobia. Mulvaney accepted a brand promotion with Bud Light and posted a sponsored video on Instagram, unaware of the backlash it would generate. She has faced ridicule, harassment, and fear for her safety, but Bud Light has not reached out to her. The incident highlights the ongoing conservative boycott against brands supporting the LGBTQ+ community during Pride Month, as well as the need for brands to stand up against hate and support marginalized communities.
