Red Bull - European but Far right
Buy European but … Also with ethical considerations.
Red Bull might sound cool, but they have their own TV station in Austria. (servus TV) And that station js beyond far right. Spreading disinformation, and Russian propaganda, Corona Bullshi, Ivermectint, cleaning stuff with chlorid, climate change deniers, … If there is a conspiracy they support it …
(And it’s also not very healthy,…)

Just like Teslas being shitty cars, Red Bull is a crappy beverage. There was never a good reason to drink this junk.
Kongstrong for the Win
The cheap LIDL alternative is super good, just like Freeway Cola wich is also super good.
Kong Strong. And it’s like half a euro at my Lidl.
Also, it’s full of sugar and caffeine and is really bad for you.
Ahh. So “far right” as in not repeating western propaganda. Not “far right” as in the literal Nazi parties rising throughout Europe again.
The conspiridorks are fascists now, it’s been that way for a decade.
So just accuse anti-war speech of supporting Russia, and then you can accuse anyone opposing war of being fascist. Textbook fascism posing as anti-fascist.
So y’all become gravely concerned over the influence of peace advocates, while letting RN/AfD/FdI/NATO steamroll across Europe with their corporate partners. Insanity.

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.
I’d also throw Bayer into that list. Knowingly had HIV contaminated blood, considered the amount of money they’d lose by destroying it, so they supplied it to patients in Latin America and Asia. Bayer considered the investment they had in the contaminated product, decided NOT to destroy it, for profits sake, and infected thousands of people with it. They misrepresented the results to not lose money and killed thousands.
I know pharmaceutical companies is a giant mess, but Bayer is on par with Nestle for me.

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.
i mean, personally if i had to pick between a shitty company and a shitty product, i’d just pick neither unlesa it was a necessity
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
Owner is cozy with the AFD
The CEO meets up with the AfD on the regular to discuss Nazi things.
Red Bull also tastes like shit.
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 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.

“The Nazis entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to bomb everyone else, and nobody was going to bomb them. At Rotterdam, London, Warsaw, and half a hundred other places, they put their rather naive theory into operation. They sowed the wind, and now they are going to reap the whirlwind.”
Athur Harris described an element of the fascist mindset to a T with this quote, this bully mentality that can not comprehend the would-be victims fighting back.
I wonder why it applies so thoroughly to Russia?
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
Yep, permanently banned here for “ban evasion” though I only know 1 sub I was banned from and I never went there after. That’s okay, helped me quit what is clearly a hollow shell of user participation filled with a corpo bot sludge. It’s really easy to VPN up and make another account anyway, but why play in the garbage heap?
Interestingly, the site wide rules about violence are only supposed to be credible calls to action. Like if someone was actually planning to murder people and coordinating it on the site.
Saying you’d like to punch someone, even if they aren’t a Nazi, isn’t against the rules as they are written. Either they don’t understand their own rules, they are lazy fuckers who don’t want to do their jobs the correct way and actually investigate shit to make sure it actually violates the rules, or they are Nazi pieces of shit.
Not one of these things makes using the site sound like a good idea.
A system is what it does. Action matters more than intent. Reddit bans anti Nazi rhetoric, therefore it is a pro Nazi website.
Don’t lie, it doesn’t.
I was banned for “promoting violence” by saying, in a thread mocking Musk’s AI, that someone managed to get Musk’s AI to say that Musk and Trump deserve the death penalty.
Reddit is 100% defending Nazis by extending their definition of “promoting violence” to extreme lengths if you say something against the oligarchs and nazis but will twiddle their thumbs when people are literally calling to hurt and/or kill immigrants, non-white people or LGBTQ+ people.
Have been writing many times that burgerlanders should eliminate Trump, Musk, etc if they want to have their country. Not once has my account been even suspended. Only where I have been suspended was only Russian - Ukraine war subreddid few times. And last time after appellation they opened again.
My 5 banned accounts would say otherwise.
Well so much of free speach here. Ok, my account is too new here. But I was banned from @meme for saying that comminism is not great. So, what we have? In reddit farright as you say and in Lemm farleft?
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.
Regular good night sleep and avoiding junk food will give you wiiiiings
The one from LIDL
Coffee
I drink coffee and Decathlon isotonic drink, one after the other, and it makes me great.
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
Red bull is original thai
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.@superkret
I’m more of the avoid-US(-and-some-others) stance.
@SwordOfOtto @EuropeanMadeThe 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.
on the bright side, red bull tastes like shit
It also tastes like shit and is prohibitively expensive compared to many energy drink brands
Removed by mod
Also has even higher chances of giving you kidney stones than other sodas iirc
But isn’t that all energy drinks? Not that I have any clue, the only times I ever drank them was when I was 17 and they were mixed with vodka.
The ol’ heart exploder cocktail.
Idk honestly but I have read this factoid specifically about red bull several times on the Internet so it must be true (/s)
Holy shit what is up with the reddit mods? I posted a screenshot of a Mastodon post there yesterday, that basically said if youre switching us big tech for eu big tech you’re not doing enough and that we have to support decentralized tech. Deleted in 5 minutes because it “posts should be relevant to european made products”
