    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.

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