From what I remember Coke tried to make a formula that didn't use spent Coca leaves as a flavoring agent. The leaves go through "decocainization" before being used as extract for the soda's unique flavor and you have to ask yourself, where the fuck is all the narcotic substances going to since Coca Cola is one of the few companies able to import the shit and they have ties to big pharma companies who use this substance.

When Coke removed the coca leaf extract it was like taking sugar away from a fat person. Despite not possessing the actual narcotic it was still there in very minor trace amounts and made the drink addictive. Point of the story, people saw New Coke the same why a druggie would see being put in a rehab center and some Coke drinkers literally became depressed.

There's a reason so many people are fucking fat in this country and they're too ashamed to admit it.

Pretty much this. The Hunt, The New Direction was all just the appetizer all the shit that happened in between was the main course and Dark Depths was the end of the line. That Event Pass was quintessentially the perfect storm of a middle finger that Lo-rez could've given. A tone def battle pass which was like the 4th Ocean themed pass within a year, a pay for less battle pass scheme that was actually worse than before, fatigue of nothing but skins for content a community managed by people who clearly had so much disdain for people they did the exact opposite just to spite them while gaslighting them and speaking of spite, SALT to top it all off. It was like a master class in watching a company write its own suicide note. Everything that came after was just the after party.
