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.

o Reddit is no place for normal people

I got a warning for upvoting pro-Canada stuff like "elbows up". That is apparently promoting violence.

Well yeah, you're promoting the same kind of violence that Ukraine continues to perpetrate on Russia.

[–] CalipherJones@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago

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.

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.
