A conservative organization has launched a campaign to send out “Woke Alerts” notifying consumers of brands’ progressive political stances, according to Axios.
Consumers’ Research will send out these notifications via text message when customers are grocery shopping in attempts to empty the pockets of “woke” corporations, according to Axios. The campaign comes days after the Anheuser-Busch fallout where they branded transgender activist Dylan Mulvaney‘s likeness onto Bud Light cans, sparking backlash across the internet.
“We are launching Woke Alerts to help consumers make better-informed decisions about where to spend their money,” Will Hild, executive director of Consumers’ Research, told Axios. “We believe companies should focus on their customers and not woke politicians and progressive activists.”
In attempts to get people to sign up for the alerts this week, the organization is launching a six-figure ad campaign, Axios reported. Consumers’ Research already has several brands on “Woke Alert,” like Bud Light and Jack Daniels, according to their website.

In response to the “woke” beer cans, celebrities like Kid Rock and Travis Tritt have taken firm stances against Anheuser-Busch, whose stock plummeted by more than $6 billion since the Mulvaney-Bud Light partnership. A 2021 Jack Daniels ad campaign featuring drag queens resurfaced after the Bud Light controversy, also prompting backlash from consumers.
“Anheuser-Busch works with hundreds of influencers across our brands as one of many ways to authentically connect with audiences across various demographics and passion points,” the brand told Fox News. “From time to time we produce unique commemorative cans for fans and for brand influencers, like Dylan Mulvaney. This commemorative can was a gift to celebrate a personal milestone and is not for sale to the general public.”
The House GOP has threatened to investigate and hold hearings about corporations utilizing progressive political propaganda in their branding, according to Axios. Consumers’ Research has put together 30 pages worth of information for the Republican congressmembers to utilize in hearings to combat the environmental, social and governance (ESG) movement.
Consumers’ Research, Anheuser-Busch and Jack Daniels did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s requests for comment.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Question: Why do the political and corporate leaders of America – long the freest, most successful, most prosperous and most Christian nation in history – bow and scrape before China, a ruthless, communist, totalitarian and explicitly atheistic dictatorship openly committed to ruling the world, including America?
The astonishing answers come into focus only when one contemplates both the unprecedented level of political and financial corruption in America’s ruling class (multiple Biden family members received $31 million in payola from China), and simultaneously the communist Chinese government’s brilliantly devious methods of unconventional total warfare, by which China is stealthily infiltrating, subverting, corrupting and colonizing the United States of America.
The China threat has rarely been more dramatically or pointedly documented than in the sensational March issue of WND’s critically acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine, titled “HOW CHINA IS CONQUERING AMERICA.” Whistleblower is available in both the popular print edition and a state-of-the-art digital version, either single issues or discounted annual subscriptions.
