Why do people act like coffee in the morning is such a sacred routine but soda in the morning [basically the same drink] is lowbrow and unhealthy? (lemmy.world)

like, it's caffeine and water and brown, who cares. i drink diet soda so it's no calories, no sugar. versus the stereotype starbucks order, why is soda so demonized

the whole sort of basically woo stuff about oh there's antioxidants there which give you a 3% lower risk of skin cancer after the age of 65 like come on that doesn't count

i was under the impression that 'casual conversation' meant 'not necessarily being chastized for asking a lighthearted question without literally citing sources like i'm writing a thesis'

    You made an absolutely absurd claim. It didn't seem like it to you, whixh is obvious now, but that was not a lighthearted comment more like it was a slap in the face.

    At least, all the people responding seem to have taken it as a challenge
