Don't let brands artificially stake themselves to your identity. Organic memes don't build demographic brand associations; be very wary of insidious shit like this
While i fundamentally agree with the negative impact of brands and associations, monster has become a part of transfem meme culture and the company itself has donated to multiple LGBTQ+ organisations such as the It Gets Better project and the Gay and Lesbian Victory Fund.
