Einfach immer Regenjacke mitnehmen aber dran denken kurz zu beschweren dass man sie umsonst dabei hat sonst wirkt es nicht.

Seems like it was changed yesterday. Took longer than I thought.

Imagine the same post but substitute her with trump, someone in the comments calling him a “cool guy”.

Not as far as Im concerned. This is “corporations add dirt cheap sugar to drinks making people addicted to poison for cents per liter” vs. “there simply is sugar in a pressed fruit”. And does it really matter what the motivation is as long as the desired result is the same? Taxing fruit juices just wouldnt make any sense. Theyre not the problem.

Oh I thought it was. Guess I remembered wrong.

I dont like artificial sweeteners, I hate the aftertaste. What I like is harmful products like tobacco, alcohol and sugar that corporations use to get people addicted and sick, being taxed.

Also I am concerned with pollution, but unless there is an alternative, I dont want breathing to be taxed. If the choice is between only the extremely harmful sugar being taxed and all sweet drinks being taxed just the same, I want the less harmful products to be prioritized.

You know what else is carcinogenic? Breathing contaminated air, which is present just about everywhere on the planet, besides maybe on mountaintops or something. But the effects in “normal” areas are so little that it doesnt make sense to worry about. The data indicating carcinogenicity in sweeteners is so vague and inconclusive that they cant even certainly say “how” bad it is, just that it maybe has some kind of influence. Thats a million times better than actual sugar with thousands of studies proving its harmful effects.

People will drink sweet stuff whether you want it or not. The question is if they should drink the ones that give you a 1% chance of a bad liver and diabetes, or the ones that may have a .0001% chance of promoting some kind of cancer? (these arent supposed to be actual realistic values, if it wasnt obvious, as risks depend on a million factors)

Sugar is exactly as healthy as sugar.

This shows how little you know about the subject yet you keep arguing as if you had facts. Sugar is a category of compounds consisting mainly of saccharids (which again, is a category of compounds). There are literally thousands of “sugars” which vary wildly in their effects on the human body. Also, other stuff you ingest/digest at the same time influences those as well…

Furthermore, they tax artificial sweeteners as well.

Nope. Klingbeil revoked that immediately afterwards.

Not sure if you are trying to be sarcastic? This source says that Aspartame is perfectly safe unless you consume 10 cans of soft drinks per day. And even when you exceed that, it doesnt mean it is harmful, just that there is not enough evidence to prove it isnt.

Sugar is proven to be harmful even in small amounts, so Aspartame is better in every way. Its a shame I hate the aftertaste of artificial sweeteners, but I dont consume a lot of sugar anyway.

How does an exception for fruit juice (containing natural sugar and relatively expensive) make it obvious that its not about added sugar and cheap drinks?

Verstehe auch nicht ganz wieso Datendiebstahl der Grundzustand ist und eine Abweichung davon schwierig ist “weil die Leute die damit reich geworden sind ein bisschen weniger schnell reich werden würden”.

Yeah just like with the Gulf of Mexico /s

Will be, my bet is on “by tomorrow morning” but could take longer. Google is happily complicit.

They can as long as everyone involved is playing along licking the big baby’s neck vagina.

I could daclare myself king of poopistan and if every embassy, TV station, author, publisher, school, etc. believes it and acts accordingly, whats keeping it from becoming true?

Are you high on milk rn?

The problem is processed sugar being the cheapest calories per weight you can find so adding sugar to drinks is hyper cheap while getting people (especially kids) addicted and sick. 100% fruit juices arent the problem.

Probably because thats not what this is about. Its about processed sugar being addictive and harmful.

Hab ich mich auch schon gefragt

Ja genau, “aus-das-büro” passt nicht ganz

Aus-von-Büro?
