Theres those stories about coca cola straightup killing water protectors or big sugar shutting down researchers about carcinogenic and liver damage effects of fructose.
Definitely true. Tobacco industry did it. Why would other capitalist be different?
Fructose itself would be wild, but HFCS and all other analogues, one hundo percent.
iirc there was a coke bottling plant in South America that hired assassins to kill some labor organizers. Coke claimed plausible deniability.
Sugar causes enough problems even without being carcinogenic. I personally think the sugar industry should be broken up and dismantled. Even is sugar isn't harmful per se, the sheer amount of it shoved in to food in America is disgusting.
