Wanted to try an energy drink since I usually never drink them but didn’t want one with tons of sugar etc but also didn’t taste terrible. This would just be a once in a great while occasion.

      It is useful information for me: I love seltzer, and I am in favor of boycotting Israel products for the time being. If it doesn’t matter to you, that’s your choice.

        It’s kinda like how vegans don’t eat meat thinking they’re solving anything when there will be people who eat meat anyways thus making it irrelevant

          No, animal slaughter is not comparable to genocide. Don’t compare humans to pigs. Don’t compare yourself to human beings ever again, because you’re a soulless beast.

            Their talking about divestment from and boycotting of Israel. I think you’re being a little heavy handed? I understand the frustration, but as far as I’ve seen that’s as far as the comments go.

              I’m not being heavy-handed. You’re being softheaded, ignorant, and unprincipled. Animal slaughter is a keystone of human survival in almost every economy, critical to manufacturing and research, and is done humanely, to animal populations. A genocide is a genocide, which I do not have to explain, despite how mystifying this can be to Israel’s useful idiots like you.

              The purchase of the Sodastream enriches genocidaires and his taste buds alone. The purchase actively deprives Palestinian children of basic resources by funding Israel’s settler economy, which is in a state of freefall.

                I actually think they’re talking about individual impact in the face of global forces, not equating genocide and meat consumption.

                  Individual impact in the face of human meat consumption and individual impact in the face of a failing Nazi economy lashing out at innocent people, yes. I already understood the comparison. Your pedantic nonsense is unwelcome. Get out of my mentions.

          I’m also vegetarian, so it’s pretty clear that we think about things differently 😂

          My one small part is something I have control over, but I understand feeling like a drop in the bucket, too

      Why do you need to get it from the shittiest source possible if the country of origin doesn’t matter

              You already said that, but we both know there are premises behind your lack of caring.

              Would you buy products from Nazi Germany? Even before the Holocaust was revealed to the world?

              There’s no technology trade going on. You’re not a developing country negotiating for hardware or prices you can’t get elsewhere. It’s an appliance that makes carbonated water. The Sodastream isn’t even the best product. It certainly isn’t the only firm making these fizzy water appliances. (Which you don’t need in the first place.)
