Ahh. So “far right” as in not repeating western propaganda. Not “far right” as in the literal Nazi parties rising throughout Europe again.

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.
It also tastes like shit and is prohibitively expensive compared to many energy drink brands
I didn’t know redbull was European and I didn’t know servus tv belonged to redbull
I don't drink Red bull but still would like a more thorough article or information about this
Wikipedia provides a starting point!
I don't drink it because it's trash, but I had no idea about any of this. The word needs to be spread.
They also support Israel's apartheid and occupation, they are listed on the NoThanks app.
It's also owned by the creator of the original Red Bull in Thailand, which is a different company, but it's named after an extreme right wing paramilitary https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Gaurs
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"
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.
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.
Without reading the actual post, and my sole reaction to the thread title is: you can purchase Reddit mods?
Wait really? I live in the US granted but I don't want to support any company that does heinous shit like this.
on the bright side, red bull tastes like shit
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?
10 to 15 years back when I still watched tv, I loved Servus TV: news, lots of documentaries, reports and some panel shows. Like, TV before enshittification. Absolutely nothing even remotely close to what this post is suggesting. Has it gone down since then, or is this post misinformation? Can anybody who's still watching TV confirm this?
