The ramblings of a pseudointellectal…or a genuine idiot?

Taking the piss

After a low-resolution meme that I found on the interwebz.

In the wake of recent controversy over narcissist and self-publicist Dylan Mulvaney being attached to Bud Light as a brand ambassador.

Some argue that Mulvaney's a clown who's only out for the clicks and the clout; that he offensively stereotypes both real women and those who're truly gender dysphoric, trivialising them and their life experiences. For example:

Day one of being a girl, and I have already cried three times; I wrote a scathing email, that I did not send; I ordered dresses online that I couldn't afford; and then, when someone asked me how I was, I said I'm fine, when I wasn't fine. How'd I do ladies? Good? Girl power!

Dylan Mulvaney, Day 1 of being a girl

As a knowing one-off parody, a comedy sketch, it'd be funny. But his performance has been continuously ongoing for the past year. He's either mocking women or, worse, trying to be serious; which probably amounts to the same thing. He's a symptom of sickness in a small proportion of Western society; given the oxygen of a global audience through social media, and pandered to by woke corporations chasing ESG dollars. None of them have the self-awareness to feel shame.

I haven't personally drunk Bud Light, but I did try Budweiser back in the day. It felt soft, not unlike soapy dishwater.
