They still have not come out and enrolled back publicly a lot of their DEI policies. They haven't apologized. They're loyal customer base. They called fratting out of touch. And they haven't been able to admit and say, we screwed up. And I think part of that is because of this kind of European ownership that they have.

And my feeling is that they're not actually going to get their Bud Light customers back, no matter how much money they throw at Dana White and the Ultimate Fighting Championship, which I think they gave him $100 million. They have Shane Gillis. They have others. Because the real path to redemption, I mean, it goes through forgiveness. You know this.

But the only way to be forgiven is actually to admit there was a mistake and there was an error. And they have yet to do that. And until they do that, I don't think a lot of these customers are coming back, no matter what marketing you give folks.

Yeah, so, you know, it's funny. So I left Anheuser-Busch one year before that deal in Mulvaney Partnership after they wouldn't let me do the Black Rifle deal. They wouldn't let me. I saw the company changing from a diversity standpoint. And Vivek and I, we started a company called Strive Asset Management, which was we were going to invest everyday citizen dollars into businesses that

And have them be focused, once again, on meritocracy. Have them be focused on their mission. Don't necessarily get involved in a lot of political and social issues. Like we saw, I was living in actually Atlanta, Georgia, if you remember, Glenn, in 2021, when Governor Kemp signed the Georgia Voting Rights Act. He said, you need to have an ID to vote. And corporate America lost its mind.

BlackRock, one of the very first companies, said, we're against this law, we're pushing back on it. Then they kind of compelled Coca-Cola, Delta to get involved in this and push back. And Major League Baseball canceled the All-Star Game in 2021 in Atlanta. over this Georgia Voting Rights Law. You need to have an ID to vote.

So we saw a lot of these problems happening and we came out and we said, we're going to start a new asset manager, compete against BlackRock. Let's have companies just focused on whatever their mission is. Stay out of politics. That will be good for business because you're not going to fracture your customer base.

It's going to be good for our democracy as well because we should have individuals are the ones should be deciding what rules they live by, not these Supernational Organisations or ESG Promoting Asset Managers. And it was funny, when we originally launched, this was not only a contrarian position, this was almost like a subversive position in 2022, three years ago.
