Gotta thank the Coca-Cola company for helping me get healthier by ditching their whole brand and product line. Turns out my ethics are stronger than my diet adherence.
Anything for a buck. Coca-Cola , Ford, and Koch sold to our worst enemies. Koch built Hitler’s and Stalin’s oil refineries that fueled the Luftwaffe and other Nazi war machines.

(glad not to have had a single Coke product in at least 35 years. Yes, I know how diversified their line up is. Not one. Dead to me, and should be to you, just saying.
Corporate America needs to stop sucking up to the felon Not everyone is a republican/maga Dems and Ind. also buy and support their products I really wish they would stop it
"It’s one thing to defend your business from attack, but something else to cosy up to the totalitarian regime, and...Max Keith pulled out all the stops to get the red and white flag of Coca-Cola flying alongside the red and white (and black) flag of the Nazi Party." from the article
And we Germans even invented Fanta as we could not get our hands on the Coke sirup anymore once war started with America. (For Republicans: It was the 2nd World War, not the Civil War.)
The way I look at it is elections are winner take.
Trump narrowly won the popular vote and is your president.
These companies that are now pandering to him, there are millions upon millions of you even internationally that can make them pay.
Stop helping them. Make their pandering to a fascist hurt.
If Hitler liked them, it explains why Trump just had an inaugural bottle designed by the company. He relies heavily on Hitler's playbook. The parallels are uncanny.
Hey now. No need to judge us fatties. Skinny people drink regular Coke and don't get judged. Coke Zero has been my "break the glass" choice of beverage when I'm on the verge of an even worse choice. I rarely touch it but I keep some in my pantry for emergency cravings. I'm truly going to miss it.
I know it's bad for me, but sometimes this fatty with insulin resistance really wants something sweet and bubbly and coke zero was the only one without after taste. I'm really sad about this. And when the partial case in my pantry is gone I'm gonna be sad. Why do they ruin all the good stuff?
I know. If we were face to face you'd see that I'm smiling while I say "hey now..." But it really has been a nice crutch on my weight loss journey and reversing T2. My ethics, however, are more important to me than my sweet tooth. I'm not going to buy it, but I'm going to be real bitter and childish
I've lost 110 but gained back 10 the weekend of my son's wedding. (Oops. But I had fun) It's a long slow journey that never ends. It's up and down and never stops being a struggle. If you think you are "there" and let your guard down, the weight creeps back.
Coca Cola arrived to Portugal in 1927... but shortly after we got a dictator that forbid it... only in 1977 it returned... but then we were a Democracy.
Fernando Pessoa, one of our most admired poets actually wrote a marketing slogan back in 1927... it became a famous phrase later for other reasons later like when a person tries heroin and get's addicted "Primeiro estranha-se, depois entranha-se".
Coca-Cola makes me queasy anyway. With Trump rolling out a commemorative drink just makes it worse. I'm sticking with iced tea. I can make it myself and avoid enriching yet another oligarch.

Hey what Joe do you think Nancy Mace is angling for? I think defense - hence the step outside remark.
My WwII vet grandfather only carried coke products in his general stores because of that.

And, Diet Coke became Trump's drink of choice.
Coincidence? I think not.
Republicans and Trump won
You OWN us

I meant winner take all
...Ohh:
Much like Trump, except for transplants and the color orange...
They supplied Hitler under the table.
Hitler was an asshole.
Here's the autopsy photo.
It can't be too far off.
