  2. That Madonna and Kylie collab is out and it’s pretty fab, but wait, did Madonna just throw shade at Pepsi at the end of the video?

    Loving the new Madonna X Kylie collab, Love Sensation. I’m happy it came out sooner than some time in the near future. They say tomorrow is now really in this hyper-real world. And something had to come from all that talk about a duet between two of the world’s greatest pop sensations. And I will call it a duet because duets don’t have to be mushy and slow and this track is less of a collab and more of an event. It had to come out now. After all, hype is futile without followup, and in today’s InstaWorld that means it ought to have been out yesterday. For devotees in the LGBTQIA communities, the song ought to feel instantly likeable, perhaps even a little familiar – hope and devotion can do those things to your mind. Before you know it, you’d imagine the song was pretty much written for you. And that intent, the natural chemistry, the familial connections, the doing away with too much trickery, that better clarity in vocals, the chiller beats per minute, and that universal message connects instantly with the audience it’s intended to gift. The others will catch on by summer’s peak.

    I don’t mind the video. A bit slapped-together-at-an-Amsterdam-promo-gig and with words all over the place having the nerve to think they’re in a lyric video – but, hey, if hideous fonts helps brat artists go viral, hopefully a few lovelier fonted words like these will help teach the folks how pretty language used to before it went #awol and before we let the machines do all the talking.

    But something stuck with me after I watched the clip. Not just the naughty earworm that crawled out of the catchy-as-heck song. Not the flashing graphics that for all I know might have read, “You must love Madonna and Kylie or you will perish in hell” (for all I know). And not just the joy of finally seeing two brilliant pop artists coming together to bring their learn-ed all to the contemporary pop scene. It was a little joke Madonna makes at the end when she orders “Coke and ice” on her cellphone.

    Now it’s not the statement I’m really questioning here: a classic Coke/coke joke is a classic joke. My pondering was more along the lines of why the statement at all? Call it overanalysing but when it comes to music icons, well, that’s kind of what I do.

    So I started asking myself… Was it to sound cool with the kids? Was it possible shade at Pepsi for some odd royalty dispute from yore? Was it payola from a competitive big beverage brand? Was it street-talk hinting that a mix of cocaine and meth might just be where enlightenment’s at? (not tried that combination and probably won’t ever). Was it a woman not having to mind her Ps and Qs (because in a free-speech democracy we shouldn’t have to hold our tongue) and just letting some silly quip slip through her lips in place of silence? As a Leo, I know it’s really difficult to keep your mouth shut, especially when everything that comes out of it is golden. See what I did there?

    Anyhoo, the cocaine-was-once-an-ingredient-in-Coke jokes probably began some time in 1930 – a few months after the beverage became completely-cocaine free in 1929 (I’m guessing it took a few years for everybody to get over the Charlie hangover). Like all good jokes, it has longevity and, quite frankly, I think it has purpose. If there’s good reason for the joke’s survival and random injection into the popular vernacular, I’d like to think that it was that any soft drink, with or without the excess sugar, is probably a better stimulant to help you reach a certain (even small) level of conscience or higher consciousness (seriously, because there really is nothing that you can’t do) than, say, coke, ice or a combination of the two.

    I’m leaning more towards that than any idea that it fell under a Scattergories list of Stupid Cool-Kid Words, or Jokes To Help Break Those Seconds Of Awkward Silence, and I certainly hope they weren’t three words scribbled on paper and handed over from a PR rep who probably likes her real coke too much. 

    I’m not sure why I really tried to analyse that one. Just something about it stuck. Like so many of the things Madonna has said since blessing us with her ultra-presence all those decades ago. But I do kind of feel Someone needs to sit this woman down and give her a dose of her own Leo medicine. Or a nice cup of herbal tea and a chat. Or a Tequila cocktail or Coke with ice, even. The point is guaranteed positive public relations is now out of everybody’s hands. Well, kind of in everybody’s hands. Actually, I’m not sure anymore because AI has a pretty big mouth, too. Iconic one-liners might just be bandied about the wrong way if an artist’s delivery is too ambiguous.

    What one needs is a good guide or mantra to help practice the marrying of the natural with intention with any desired material result – in this particular case, stream this song, or love me when I’m gone from your phone screen. [He wrote after seeing the video an hour ago and is still thinking and writing about it.]

    Point being: genuine intention is good. When that’s in place, everything else follows effortlessly.

  3. Un très bon reportage qui reprend les raisons du fléau du Coca au Mexique.
    Comment la firme a imposé son marché, épuisant les nappes fréatiques et imposé sa boisson, rendant l'eau plus rare et inaccessible.
    Tout y est disséqué, le point de vue historique, les différents mécanismes sociaux économiques. Un des plus complet reportage que j'ai vu sur le sujet. A voir absolument.

  6. Anpec defiende a Coca-Cola y traiciona a las tienditas: Alianza por la salud alimentaria

    La ANPEC protegió los intereses de Coca-Cola y actuó contra los pequeños comercios en México.


    Por Deyanira Vázquez | Reportera                                        

    La Asociación Nacional de Pequeños Comerciantes (Anpec) operó una campaña contra el impuesto a bebidas azucaradas bajo el argumento de proteger a las tienditas, pero en realidad sirvió a Coca-Cola, empresa señalada por provocar daños a la salud y al comercio local. La movilización incluyó un llamado a cerrar negocios durante unos minutos el pasado 3 de octubre.

    El documento, distribuido por repartidores de Coca-Cola, fue firmado por la ANPEC y difundido entre tenderos en todo el país. En él se pidió protestar contra un impuesto recomendado por la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS), UNICEF, el Banco Mundial (BM) y la OCDE, como una de las medidas más efectivas para reducir el consumo de refrescos.

    Con esta acción, la Anpec se consolidó como la principal opositora al impuesto, posicionándose del lado de la industria refresquera. Detrás de su discurso, se ocultan dos afirmaciones falsas y dos verdades que evidencian los intereses que representa.

    Mentira uno: cierre de tienditas

    El primer argumento de la ANPEC fue que el impuesto provocaría el cierre masivo de tiendas. Sin embargo, los datos muestran que el precio de una Coca-Cola de 600 mililitros pasó de 10 a 20 pesos entre 2014 y 2025, mientras el impuesto se mantuvo en un peso por litro. El alza de precios obedeció a políticas internas de la empresa, no al gravamen.

    En noviembre de 2023, Coca-Cola aumentó un peso sus presentaciones pequeñas y dos pesos las grandes. Siete meses después, en junio de 2024, volvió a incrementar los precios en las mismas proporciones. Estos aumentos duplicaron el efecto del impuesto, sin que la ANPEC emitiera protesta alguna.

    La organización sólo reaccionó cuando se trató de un impuesto con fin sanitario, no cuando la empresa ajustó sus precios por decisión comercial. De esta forma, su discurso benefició directamente a la refresquera.

    Mentira dos: pérdida de empleos

    La segunda afirmación fue que el impuesto provocaría desempleo. No obstante, el estudio “Cambios en el empleo asociados con la introducción de impuestos a bebidas azucaradas y alimentos no esenciales con alta densidad energética”, publicado en PubMed, desmintió esa versión.

    Según la investigación, los impuestos implementados en México desde 2014 no generaron reducción alguna en el empleo dentro de la industria de bebidas, el comercio minorista ni los pequeños establecimientos. Los datos del INEGI confirmaron que los niveles de ocupación se mantuvieron estables.

    Pese a ello, la ANPEC argumentó que 30 mil tienditas cerraron en 2014 basándose en una encuesta propia, sin revisión ni publicación científica, en contraste con las estadísticas oficiales. –sn–

"#AmericanBeverage, a trade and lobbying group representing #CocaCola, #PepsiCo and other companies…paid an undisclosed amount to 10 registered dietitians, as well as a physician and a fitness influencer, to use their social media accounts to help blunt the #WHO’s claims that #aspartame, a mainstay of Diet Coke and other sodas, is ineffective for weight loss and 'possibly carcinogenic.'"

  12. Registered #dietitians are being paid to post videos that promote candy, diet soda, #sugar and #aspartame on #Instagram and #TikTok ahead of #Halloween & to counter a recent report from the #WorldHealthOrganization indicating potential #cancer risks.

    What these #influencer dietitians didn’t make clear was that they were paid to post the videos by #AmericanBeverage, a trade and lobbying group representing #CocaCola, #PepsiCo and other companies.

    Ну да бросьте..... В Калининграде полно Coca-Cola, разговаривал с поставщиками, закупили всяких аналогов из белорусии, фанки-манки... Народ не пьёт и все тут.
    Как результат точки забиты колой из Польши (магазины) и Сербии (общепит) и все довольны.
