'Anti-Woke' Water Makes a Splash at Conservative Conference

[Zorro]

A conservative water brand that claims to offer right-wingers an anti-woke protest in a bottle made its pitch to attendees at Turning Point USA's People's Conference this weekend.

“Freedom2o,” which makes disposable water bottles with labels like, “This water isn’t free, but your speech is,” ran a spot at the conservative conference attended by GOP heavy-hitters like former President Donald Trump and his son, Donald Trump Jr.

The spot, first posted on X, features company founder Elizabeth White saying, “It’s not just refreshing, it’s rebellious, and it’s unapologetic to drink this in public.” She also says the water “isn’t just about what’s inside the bottle, it’s about the message it sends with every sip.”

White previously told the New York Post she got the idea for the brand while watching the Republican debates, where she noticed audience members drinking water that had “no connection to the people drinking it.”

“Kevin McCarthy was drinking Dasani—which is left, right and center,” she said. “If he drank Freedom, I think he would still be Speaker of the House.”

There apparently is nothing the Republicans won't make political.

I guess next up will be breathing.

1. Freedumb 2.0: The right to be suckers and losers

Magats are pretty darn special

They are planning to STAY ASLEEP to facts, truth, and reality; meanwhile making war upon those who have awakened to see how corrupt the whole stinking repube party has become.

2. So is it full of industrial waste and sewage run-off?

So easy to separate MAGA’s from their money.

11. Proudly not FDA approved

14. The pipes in the bottling plant are made of lead...

... and the water is filtered through sand from the shooting range for that sweet taste of Freedumb.

19. If Trump and company have their way about it

ALL water would be full of industrial waste and sewage run-off.

Just more MAGA people - being really, really stupid.

4. Reminds me of the Freedom Fries nonsense in 2003

when some GOPers got their knickers in a twist over France's opposition to the invasion of Iraq. So some chairman of something renamed French fries in Congressional cafeterias, listing them as Freedom Fries. At about the same time my right-winger SIL refused for the same reason to drink any of the French wine I'd brought to a family dinner. "Fine, more for me," I said.

I wonder when these grifters will start selling Freedom Air in compressed air cans that especially fragile MAGA idiots can huff when they feel threatened by some sort of awful wokeness -- like the realization that women, Black people, immigrants, LGBTQ people, Democrats, Jews, Muslims, atheists and drag queens can breathe all the air they want for free, and that air eventually mixes with all of the air, which the MAGA idiots might have to breathe themselves. Cooties!

5. "It's not just refreshing, it's rebellious..."

There’s no limit to rightwing idiocy.

7. Owning the libs by paying 10 bucks for tap water in a bottle

[Jerry2144]

8. I make some really great water that can drink

After I drying beer

9. "Puke2o"

But if it was real anti-woke water, it would cause cancer in everyone who drank it.

[sakabatou]

10. So... just branded tap water?

[malaise]

12. Why not

Others (including my late mother) have /had their holy water - it’s all the same to me - bare BS

[ZonkerHarris]

13. Everyday I ask myself: Why am I not fleecing these suckers for their money like their leaders.

suckers to the end.
So playable.
Easily manipulated
just like trump

[The Wandering Harper]

15. right?

[Ocelot II]

18. See #4. You could sell air in cans,

to be huffed in emergency situations involving unbearable wokeness. Just relabel some cans of compressed air used to clean electronics, call it Freedom Air.

[Emile]

16. Always on the scam.

[keithbvadu2]

17. Is it just out-of-date Trump water with a new label?

[Iggo]

29. Probably.

[B.See]

20. It 'trickles down' no doubt.

[muriel_volestrangler]

21. The conservatives need a safe space while drinking their water

They can't just drink; they need a slogan printed out that comforts them, and the feeling that since they paid through the nose for it, there must be value in it. It's capitalism, but the drinkers are the exploited ones.

[Solly Mack]

22. Freedom fries and freedom water for the freely dumb and stupid.

[DemocraticPatriot]

23. Hey, REAL Maggots drink RAW MILK !!!!

WTF water is bullshit!

[Bettie]

25. Maybe my DH and I need to start selling

Iowa river water packaged as "anti-woke".

[bucolic_frolic]

26. Laced with 'shrooms

I remain convinced some type of mind control agent is at work. MAGA lost their logic, their minds, their humanity .... and still don't know it.

27. "Taste the Trump in Every Bottle!" (tm)

We take special pride in the fact that we are the EXCLUSIVE recipients of The Greatest President's slightly-soiled undergarments. Every used Pamper we receive is tossed immediately into our fermentation vats to assure you the BEST trump experience! (Charitable disclaimer: Donwuld Twump receives 50% of the profits from each bottle sold.)

[Iggo]

28. Genius.

Take their allowance!

[Takket]

30. what exactly makes it "anti-woke"? I don't get it.

And what makes them think anyone in public would give a shit if they saw you drinking water from some company they don't even know exists?
