Coca Cola. Some pertinent facts for the thought police: 1. Coke was invented by Confederate Colonel John Pemberton, who was wounded in the American Civil War and became addicted to morphine. The name is derived from its original ingredients: coca leaves (cocaine) and cola nuts (caffeine). So a drug addicted racist, who created a drink containing 2 drugs, and adding sugar for getting the populace addicted to sugar, sells more carbonated beverages than anyone in the world. Are there pickets outside Coke headquarters in Atlanta? Coke won't, to this day, give its ingredients or recipe. It is time for Cancel Culture to start working, don't you think?

I'm sure Coke executives are relieved that cocaine isn't in the news too much any more.
