and when has a left boycott ever been effective? Never.

That said, I thought the exemption for bakeries was strange.

Greg Flynn doesn’t own Panera. He owns some franchise units. JAB holdings is the one that owns Panera.

    Didn’t everyone end up boycotting them for a while because they walked back the stuff that the right got mad at pretty quickly?

      That detail is irrelevant for OP. Showing the right to be strong is more important than recognizing that bud light ended up getting boycotted by everyone in the end.

      Everyone ended up boycotting.

      I didn’t because I don’t care about the whole trans ad. Trans people drink beer too.

      Also I don’t drink bud light. Can’t boycott something I don’t drink.

      That was a marketing lesson learned. They ended up pissing everyone off. They should have either not done the marketing ad or defended the hell out of it after they did it.
