Men were so mad about Gillette and now transphobes are mad about Bud Light.

This is good.

We should attack lawnmowers next.

Grills.

Slap a pride flag on guns and then maybe conservatives will see them as a threat.

Irene Gakwa has been missing since February 2022.

The then-32-year-old was last seen in Gillette, Wyoming, where she lived with her boyfriend Nathan Hightman. Irene is originally from Kenya, but she moved to the United States in 2019 to pursue a nursing degree. Her parents remained in Kenya, and Irene stayed in touch with them via video chat on a regular basis. Irene was also frequently in touch with her two brothers, who live in Idaho.

Irene had her last video chat with her parents on February 24th, 2022. Her parents continued to receive text messages from her phone via WhatsApp until March 9th. However, according to Irene's parents, the texts were not written in her usual texting style. It appeared that someone had used an online translator to send the messages in Irene's home language. Eventually, Irene's loved ones stopped receiving those messages too.

Irene shared a cell phone plan with her brothers in Idaho. After her brothers were unable to get ahold of her, they looked at her phone records and spoke to one of her close friends. It was then that they realized that Irene was back together with her boyfriend, Nathan, whom she had met on Craigslist and had been off-and-on with since 2020. Irene's brothers also learned that Irene had actually moved in with Nathan - which was a fact that no one in her family had known. As such, suspicions began to build against Nathan - who had not reported Irene's disappearance, nor had he reached out to anyone to say that she was missing. Irene's brothers finally filed a missing persons report on March 20th, 2022.

Police questioned Nathan, who said that Irene had left their home in late February and never returned. He said that she packed up her belongings and then left in a dark-colored SUV. Further than that, Nathan has been uncooperative with the investigation. He is considered a person of interest in the case.

Investigators later learned that Nathan had accessed Irene's bank accounts and credit cards after she vanished. In May 2022, Nathan was arrested and charged with "two felony counts of theft, one felony count of unlawful use of a credit card, and two felony counts of crimes against intellectual property for allegedly changing [Irene's] banking account password and deleting her email account after she vanished." He claims he did all of these things so that Irene would be forced to contact him if she needed money. As of today, Nathan has not been charged with anything else related to Irene's disappearance.

Irene remains missing today. If you have any information that could lead to her whereabouts, please contact the Gillette Police Department at 307-682-5155.

"Cancel Culture" doesn't Exist: Companies and Corporations

Studies have shown that companies that use "cancel culture" will actually profit from being canceled, boycotted, etc.

Companies that have profited from "Cancel Culture" include:

Keurig (for dropping their sponsorship with Sean Hannity for defending a child molester and attacking women that speak out against abuse)

Fans of Sean would smash and destroy their Keurigs in protest. Because people would actually miss their Keurig, they'd buy one after destroying the one they had. People who supported Keurig's choice would be more likely to buy one. Therefore, Keurig would profit no matter who was leading the boycott.

Gillette (Razors)

Gillette made a commercial that had mentions of creepy dudesTM and sort of made a "real men protect others."/"real men support each other by keeping them from doing stupid shit." sort of message. People didn't like being called out so they destroyed or trashed their razors. However, as you could probably guess, Gillette doesn't actually care about women or their struggles. In fact, Gillette adds to the pile by contributing to The Pink Tax.

TLDR: In conclusion, companies actually benefit from boycotts and protests, using controversy for free marketing. Companies that speak out or make a stance against a certain belief or standard, don't actually care, and in many cases, practice the opposite of what they preach.
