After a several-week break from social media, the influencer — who has been documenting her transition via TikTok since March 2022 in a series called “Days of Girlhood” —on the app Thursday to her 10.8 million followers. Though she didn’t mention Bud Light by name, Mulvaney’s message was clear: “dehumanization has never fixed anything in history, ever.”
On April 1, Mulvaney promoted a Bud Light March Madness contest on her Instagram account, in which she shared that the company had sent her a can of beer with her face on it. The video sparked backlash from conservative politicians and celebrities, including, who called for a boycott of the beer. As a result, sales slumped and Brendan Whitworth, the CEO of Bud Light owner Anheuser-Busch, put out a statement saying the company “never intended to be part of a discussion that divides people.
“What I’m struggling with most is that I grew up in a conservative family, and I’m extremely privileged because they still love me very much. And I grew up in the church, and I still have my faith, which I am really trying to hold onto right now,” Mulvaney said. “But I’ve always tried to love everyone, you know, even the people who make it really, really hard.
Mulvaney continued, “I’m embarrassed to even tell you this, but I was nervous that you were going to start believing those things that they were saying about me, since it is so loud. But I’m just going to go ahead and trust that the people who know me and my heart won’t listen to that noise. What I’m interested in is getting back to making people laugh and to never stop learning. And going forward, I wanna share parts of me on here that have nothing to do with my identity.
“I would say you are the bravest person I know of already, and now you are even braver,” she said. “And God forbid you can’t get what you need at this moment, please, I beg of you, whatever that guiding light is that brought you to your true self and your identity, please keep following it.”
