    Remember when they used to pretend to care about kids being drawn into smoking and alcohol?

    We abolished entire ad campaigns. That was a half measure all the same, but seeing this and things like Spiked Simply Juice and Tie-in boozy colas (don't even get me started on vaping), it feels like they knew we've hit the skids as a society. The ruling class sees the empire crumbling and they're stripping the copper wires by getting younger generations addicted.

    Sick country.

      I get what you're saying here, but there's no way this is a real, officially licensed product in the US. The people making this are probably in another country.

      Edit: remembered I can just look shit up. It's non-alcoholic and I think it's made by this Hungarian company

        Oh shoot. Thanks for pointing that out. There are plenty of ways substance abuse is normalized without criticizing something this benign.
