I drank a monster energy once (well, to be precise, about half of one.),back when energy drinks were still relatively new and there wasnt as much common knowledge about them as there is today.

Just that half of a can was enough to make me feel like I was going to die.

My resting heart rate was over 150bpm, was shaking with tremors, and cold sweating. I genuinely thought I was gonna die.

And I have never so much as touched another one, and will never touch another one, for the rest of my life.

They are incredibly dangerous and shouldnt be something any kid or idiot can walk into a store and buy with couple bucks.

and I have absolutely no idea how there are people that exist out there that can drink 6-10 of them a day without spontaneously combusting from tremor induced cellular friction.

They are not incredibly dangerous, not be a long shot.

They can be dangerous to a small subset of people with preexisting conditions and that’s about it.

“They are not incredibly dangerous, except for when they are incredibly dangerous”

By that logic, peanuts are also “incredibly dangerous”.

Note: I’m not promoting or condoning the consumption of energy drinks, they are generally unhealthy. But calling them “incredibly dangerous” because they can evoke such a reaction in a small subset of the population is bullshit.

Thats a stupid as fuck argument.

Know whats on the label, and in fact, in the name, of peanut butter?

Peanuts

and they even still have a specific warning, for extra special stupid people, that says “warning, contains peanuts”

What was on the label of Charged Lemonaid? Of Monster?

No Indicators, No Warnings, No nothing.

Miss me with this bullshit false equivalency.
