After weighing the evidence, I have decided to excise soft drinks from my life. And that is no easy task for a "four can a day" addict. So the next time you are downing a refreshing can of soda, I urge you to resist Coke's $2.4 billion mind f*ck and think about thirsty human beings drinking cadmium-contaminated water, pesticide cocktails, "fertilizer" derived from toxic sludge, decaying teeth, corpulence, child diabetics, murder for hire, police batons cracking skulls, children suffering the horrors of child labor, and the growing trend toward global fascism.
And remember to"Enjoy that refreshing new feeling." Fascist elements are counting on your blind loyalty in their bid to subjugate the world's masses to corporate domination.
