In a recent statement, Brooks criticized conservatives who have boycotted Bud Light, referring to them as "a**holes" for not backing the beer brand.
However, it seems that Garth is now facing some backlash, as he has significantly toned down his rhetoric. But he then backtracks big time by again doubling down on the importantness of "inclusiveness" at his bar.
From The Daily Caller:
On Friday, Brooks took the position that his bar, Friends in Low Places, will serve “every brand of beer,” including Bud Light. In preparation for conservative backlash for supporting Bud Light, Brooks preemptively snapped at the response, saying, “Our thing is this, if you [are let] into this house, love one another. If you’re an a**hole, there are plenty of other places on lower Broadway.”
Brooks doubled down on his bar’s inclusiveness standard, adding, “But inclusiveness is always going to be me. I think diversity is the answer to the problems that are here and the answer to the problems that are coming. So I love diversity. All inclusive, so all are welcome,” according to NBC News on Tuesday, June 13. The Bud Light boycott started with the company’s decision to sponsor transgender TikTok activist Dylan Mulvaney.
In an attempt to back off his harsh language toward the Bud Light boycotters, Brooks said, “I understand that might not be other people’s opinions, but that’s OK, man … if you’re one of those people that just can’t do that, I get it. If you ever are one of those people that want to try, come.” His tone departs from the “A**hole” moniker Brooks used to describe his detractors on Friday, June 9.
Nice try Brooks, but no dice.
Conservatives will most likely be avoiding your bar like the plague.
