Also, it’s that cola wars is a binary choice everyone understands.
Coke is telling people that everyone only loves Coke while they use colorized Holocaust videos and the worst disco tracks in their commercials. Pepsi is sitting around saying “Don’t do anything, don’t say anything, and all these unforced errors will push everyone to us eventually. We can even save money by not doing advertising campaigns right now. We don’t need to do anything.”

Nobody is burning shit down. They’re installing 1984. They’d be standing in line in front of the apple store that closed down permanently.
