By the way, the r/poppi subreddit has been deleted. Pepsi silencing all dissent. I would say to "pour one out" for Poppi, but I don't recommend buying these sodas, and I don't drink soda in general (water remains undefeated).

I’m all for Capitalism but why do corporations care about profits so much?

I'm all for capitalism, but

I do not, in fact, think this person is all for capitalism.

Edit: I looked at their post history, they seem to be an ex-con gay man whose main political subreddits are r/TheLib and r/JohnOliver where they post trump is hitler/russiagate stuff. They're a sinophobe. Their main hobbies seem to be pokemon go and sports gambling. They live in North Carolina. They believe real communism has never been tried and wouldn't work anyway because of human nature. They work in sales and say they make 6 figures. They may, in fact, be all for capitalism 😭

[–] [email protected] 67 points 1 week ago

I've worked in tech for over a decade but was it too much to ask of a giant corporation to not acquire a product and turn it into garbage?

This reads like a bit.

hardcore soda enthusiasts

Stop

I only drink prestige soda. This is a soda casual who doesn't know shit about the spice meta.

I'm all for capitalism but does it have to do what capitalism does to the things that I like?

Keep winning by drinking water.

Yes, it is too much to ask of a corporation to not turn their product into garbage. Their entire incentive starts and ends at profit. They will do whatever they can to increase profit, and this is hailed as "the efficiency of the private sector".

I consume about 3 cans a day

this is like a smoker "quitting" by switching to those thin cigarettes but still smoking all day. my lungs are saved!

[–] [email protected] 31 points 1 week ago

This is definitely a lib post but I have people who I care about who have been able to reduce their sugar/sweetener intake a lot by switching to Poppi and it sucks to see that they're turning into basically another diet soda

[–] [email protected] 30 points 1 week ago

I don't think poppi costs $2.50 per can because they're smoll bean indie soda company. I also don't think Pepsi bought poppi with the hopes of cutting costs for more people. More like they were impressed that someone was able to dupe people into paying $2.50 for a can of fizzy water with less sugar in it.

Who drinks soda instead of water? Isn't it something you drink with a meal? I stopped a long time ago too, but I used to only drink soda while eating

I stopped drinking sugary shit by getting a sodastream (before I knew it was israeli) and just using it to make bubbly water... stopped my soda purchases instantly and forever pretty much

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Making soda water is a generic process that can be done without a soda stream, just saying that out loud for anybody else that might want to save money making soda at home...

Yeah, you can buy adapters for a gas tank to your bottle threads of choice and go at it. Super simple. AliExpress is a gold mine. Too bad gas tanks cost a bit of cash and you need somewhere to store it. And they're heavy.
