Correct. Per the BNC:

August 22, 2018 — Earlier this week, PepsiCo announced that it signed an agreement to buy SodaStream, a producer of home-carbonation machines. SodaStream has faced global boycotts because of its complicity in Israel’s grave violations of Palestinian human rights.

Omar Barghouti, co-founder of the BDS movement for Palestinian rights, said:

SodaStream is still subject to boycott by the global, Palestinian-led BDS movement for Palestinian rights. Its new factory is actively  complicit in Israel’s policy of displacing the indigenous Bedouin-Palestinian citizens of Israel in the Naqab (Negev). SodaStream’s mistreatment of and discrimination against Palestinian workers is not forgotten either.

cheaper and ethically sourced bubbly water?

absolute win

You seem to be here in good faith, so thanks for your contribution but you seem a little misinformed on the sentiment of these changes on the ground. I will do my best to provide context, though others with a greater understanding may doubtless prove more helpful.

Closing the original factory put 100s of Palestinians out of work

Correct, and this was celebrated as a victory by the BDS movement; despite the unfortunate loss of employment opportunities and cooperation it was treated as a net gain for the Palestinian people in the struggle against apartheid Israel.

It’s a niche product, and hasn’t been relevant for a decade.

Again this is a credit that the BDS movement claims. “At the height of the BDS campaign against SodaStream, the company’s share price tumbled and its reputation was damaged,” per Omar Barghouti.

Why not post about a major company like Intel or Apple?

Check my post history. While I haven’t posted about Intel or Apple directly yet, I am working through the official Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions list published by the BNC, of which SodaStream is an entry, as is Intel. Me posting today about SodaStream today should never be taken to imply I don’t support BDS on other institutions—quite the opposite!

^^Highly recommend checking this article out for more information. Hoping this is helpful. Those with more experience in this field please feel free to correct me.

I thought my 15kg bottle was big! Careful you don’t knock it over and accidentally create a cruise missile!

one sec ill add them to the body text, e: done

my buddy drank 1 cups of st*ll water and ended up in the woke hospital for three weeks 🤢

We have standardized CO2 bottles here, that can be swapped at normal grocery stores. No needrto buy proprietary CO2 cartridges.

I use a Sparkel to make things bubbly, you can buy the baking soda and citric acid in bulk for way cheaper than the packs they sell and can carbonate basically any liquid

just shake the water harder to fizz it up

I like it too, but still need to buy the sodastream co2 bottles
