I wish more companies would grow a spine like this.
Take Aunt Jemima for example. What would have really happened if they just ignored the calls to change their brand name and logo? Probably nothing. Their product would still sell. Maybe sales numbers would go down a bit while leftists REEED for a few days, but the leftists would soon forget about it and things would go back to normal right quick.
What about companies that feel the need to be "diverse" in their advertising, and never use white people in their ads? Would anyone really notice and complain about an actual white couple with white children in a television commercial? Would anyone really call them out on it? Maybe some idiot commie on twatter would tweet them to complain, but would most people even really care? Nah.
We have a problem in American society where, "the squeaky wheel gets the grease."
In other words, we cater to a very, very small minority of people who are exceptionally loud and bitchy. The reality is, most people don't give a flying fuck about all this "woke" bullshit.
No one's going to care if a pancake product has a black woman on it and a name that might have had some kind of racist origin 100 years ago. They are going to buy the product if it's good. That's the bottom line.
Exactly correct! And anyone who has trained dogs / raised kids / even just babysat knows you don’t encourage bad behavior because it causes the whole “squeaky wheel gets the oil” trope.
Man, honestly, Red Bull is my least favorite energy drink, and it's expensive. But if they are going to toe this line, I might just make a conscious switch to their beverages to fulfill my daily vice/coffin nail requirement.
Their seasonal flavors are pretty good, they have improved in that respect. Also, I miss watching the Red Bull air races. Not really a sports person, but that was by far my favorite thing to watch, whether it was on tv or in real life.
Red Bull does sponsor a lot of extreme / non traditional sports which is cool, and you have to give it to them that they’re pretty innovative when it comes to marketing and advertising. But even if you’re not a sports drink guy, I think the public / open moral support of them is just as important financially supporting them.
Bought a case of sugar free today! Very cool!

Do they have any other products besides energy drinks? I'd like to support them but I do not like energy drinks.
All I know from Red Bull is that they also sponsor a lot of different extreme / non traditional sports and things like that
I don't drink this but I'll buy a few cases and give some away to my UPS and delivery drivers. I encourage everyone to match my idea.
Never drank a red bull but guess what... I'm buying it.
