This is disinformation at its finest. Red Bull absolutely does NOT taste like shit. It tastes like piss.
Tell me you've never drunken piss, without saying that you've never drunken piss. Piss tastes heavenly, compared to Red Bull.
I try to buy european but i think it's important to remind ourselves that we have shit companies in Europe that don't deserve our business. Red Bull, Nestlé, Müllermilch all these mf can suck it.
Following this logic i'd end up buying nothing or absolute crap. Example: i really liked Kellogg's corn flakes and i tried to switch to a local brand (Cerealitalia) but unfortunately is tastes bad. In the biggest supermarket of my town it's Kellogg's, Nestlè or Cerealitalia so it's US, shitty company or shitty product. Same goes for Coca Cola: it's Coca Cola, Pepsi or the coke with the same brand of the supermarket (tastes meh). I'm trying but it's not easy at all.
What's up with Müllermilch? I haven't bought it in a while because it wasn't very healthy anyway. But i didn't know the company itself was bad
The CEO meets up with the AfD on the regular to discuss Nazi things.
I am permanently banned from making Reddit accounts because I got about 4 of them banned for "promoting violence".
The violence? Telling people it was a good thing to punch Nazis. Reddit is a Nazi safe space.
Remember when you could say things like "The only good Nazi is a dead Nazi"? Wasn't even that long ago.
Seriously, fuck Nazis. All of a sudden you've got Nazis in government and we're supposed to act like you should tolerate that shit. Hmmm.
I got a warning for upvoting pro-Canada stuff like "elbows up". That is apparently promoting violence.
Yikes, Reddit is slowly killing itself. I remember years ago it was more the opposite - there were some seriously disturbing subs because they didn’t want any censorship. Now the pendulum has swung too far in the other direction and it’s hard to say anything of substance without getting warned or banned
Well yeah, you're promoting the same kind of violence that Ukraine continues to perpetrate on Russia.
Like bombing civilians in moskow?
Yeah, at this point Reddit is a sinking ship. Been using it for so long too. A little sad to see it go, but it's a shell of what it used to be.
o Reddit is no place for normal people
Damn, red bull is my energy drink of choice. Anyone got a good alternative that doesn't use alternative sweetener? So many of them use them and I can't stand the flavor they have.
I drink coffee and Decathlon isotonic drink, one after the other, and it makes me great.
Coffee
Club Mate is my energy drink of choice. Made in Germany.
Any off-brand energy is fine. Aldi has a pretty good one though it does use artificial sweeteners instead of, or in combination with, sugar.
Alternatively, give mate a try. Mio Mio has lots of flavours to choose from. The classic Club Mate is also always a gold choice. Pomegranate and peach iced tea are my favourites :)
I usually buy my energy drinks from gas stations, so I guess I'll have to see what off brands they have. I am interested in mate, I'll have to see what's available near me. Thank you.
I didn’t know redbull was European and I didn’t know servus tv belonged to redbull
on the bright side, red bull tastes like shit
But also be mindful of the fact that the more rules you add for people to be part of a movement, the less members the movement will have.
The "Buy European" protest is about sending a message of resistance against the current US regime, as well as reducing reliance on US products.
It doesn't require you to only buy ethically spotless products.
That simply isn't possible in our system.
The post is not a "rule". OP didn't even ask people to stop using Red Bull. I'm glad to have more information.
If you really enjoy Red Bull, you're an adult, make your choices. Personally, I can take it or leave it, so I'll choose to leave it.
In the UK, not a fan of tea or coffee. I rarely use caffeine at all, but there are some days where I'm falling asleep at my desk and I need something.
Any recommendations?
Cocaine
Reminder: Arguing and discussion is okay, but keep it civil and do not attack the person you are arguing with.
Did you just got here from reddit or what? Or is it some toung in cheek /s stuff too elaborate for me?
No, I'm not new. This account is new because you can't use mod tools properly if your account is on a separate instance from the modded community (e.g. you don't get reports, can't sticky stuff, etc).
And you also might not actually see the whole discussion going on here since you are on lemmy.world due to defederation between lemmy.world and other instances and so. I'm just reminding everyone to keep it civil since this community has had heated discussions before and the discussion easily slips into nationalism, which is against our rules.
Are you a moderator? Of .world or maybe on your server? Just trying to figure it out here.
No worries, I'm a mod on [email protected] community. Not an admin on .world or feddit.uk, just a feddit.uk user that is also a moderator of [email protected]
