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,....)

They asked for more information about a topic in which they were interested, on a forum designed to spread information. I don't think you can reasonably fault the person asking for more information of being lazy, when the OP could be considered equally lazy for not including the context in the first place, right?

Either way you're right, being able to look things up is a good skill to have! But maybe don't be a jerk about it, we left reddit for a reason, right? ;)

Welcome to the spot, you're absolutely right and the world could use more people that think like you.

For real, keep being you at all costs, you're awesome.
