The boycott stuck because it offended normies at the most basic human level. Past boycotts were about morality, this one, at its most basic is about reality.
Indeed. It is undeniable that the “progressive“ at least has principles, as grotesque, dehumanizing and tyrannical as they are, but they have principles, and they are willing to stick to and fight for them. The “conservative“ on the other hand lacks anything even remotely resembling principles. That’s the problem. What we need to realize is that those of us most involved in, most active in the fight against the Marxist element (i.e. the “progressive”), must not view ourselves as “conservative“ because conservatives can’t even define what it is they are trying to conserve. In fact, they are trying to simply maintain the status quo that was staked out by the “progressive” some 20 or 30 years ago. No, those of us who fight the Marxist element must view ourselves, as being pro-freedom and anti-totalitarian. Intrinsic to that is a set of immutable beliefs and principles, among which are unalienable rights and individual liberty. We anti totalitarians must zealously defend our principles and never fail to articulate them to others. That’s another failure of “conservatives” that the “progressive” never fails to do.

Should we? Leftist boycotts double as an extortion racket. Maybe we should do the same.
A boycott can't - and shouldn't - go on forever. Budweiser, having "dipped it's foot" into the progressive waters and had it bitten off, seems that they've learned their lesson. The purpose of a boycott is to change behavior, not punish forever. Even Kid Rock is moving on. I for one think there are way too many boycotts and am happy to see one end with a victory.

Beer is fermented barley water. This does not take great economies of scale. Brew local. Make money.
But don't go crazy with the hops like most craft beers. Hops are estrogenic. Here's a better idea:

The Bud Light brand must remain a smoking wreck. Pour encourager les autres, as a certain Frenchman once said.
