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,....)

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.

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.

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.

My 5 banned accounts would say otherwise.
