This doesn't exactly paint Red Bull in a positive light, are you sure it's an ad?

Even if it's not that strong on the positive message, as long as people will show this to others I'm sure some will interpret the message as "This drink won't make your feelings go away but it'll add feeling fast."

I just don't like seeing brands. I guess one could always bend any piece of media containing a product or brand to be an ad. It just didn't sit right with me that there is an increase in memes containing brands on Lemmy as these communities are still developing and I feel like they are somewhat vulnerable to ad riddled memes.
