Advert depicting immigrants inventing the American beer brand leads to boycott calls – and mockery of them – on social media
Part of the ritual of the Super Bowl is the analysis of the adverts shown during the game, when US television networks use the large audience numbers to charge astronomical sums for commercial slots.
This year, during the first Super Bowl of Donald Trump’s presidency, the US brewery Anheuser-Busch used its slot to send a pro-immigration message to the nation.
Never drinking @Budweiser you should respect the AMERICAN president instead you mock with liberal propaganda #boycottbudweiser
@Budweiser @GoingCrazyMomma screw Budweiser. You should have learned from the response you got with Amy Schumer. No LEFTY political BS.
The people who spent the last 18 months mocking extreme sensitivity in our culture are mad at a beer commercial http://pic.twitter.com/x4Hn0AQXCA
