I'm surprised noone so far has agreed with you. I get your point though and what you're saying is not to do with being pc. I wouldn't go as far as suggesting someone's actually 'attempting' to make the drug acceptable but exactly that could be the effect. these things do influence us on a subliminal level!

hahahah I seriously not lying... i woke up today i had the meaniest heartburn because I drank some Rockstar drink(NASTY but i needed it cuz i need to cram for my history class) anyways i told my mom in the morning how i had heartburn cuz of that.. and she mentioned something about cocaine and i was like What? but i was still half asleep.. anyways she said that it'll leave you all twitchy and stuff.. its' not good..... cocaine not good. they're stupid. they can't be clever enough to come up with an ORIGINAL name they have to use a name of a drug that has killed and mentally disabled people.. pretty stupid. i like how the inventor was like " it'll bring a smile to people's faces when they see the name " .... woah my smile is more like a barf face... more like WTF face. anyways it's just stupid. subliminal if you ask me... i wouldn't be surprised if they linked this guy to the mafia which happens to sell tons of cocaine. Ha. ah everything is lame. The creator is smart though.... cuz he named it after cocaine.. and that means controversial!!!!!!!!!! which means more air time which means more sells which means more money for this greedy ***. ..... my head hurts. I hate energy drinks. But i think i got an A on that that TEST! :D thanx for the info :)

No. Just because I like the song doesn't mean I'm going to use the drug.

It's just marketing. Unless it imade by druglords in Colombia, that is...
Cocaine is surpsingly accepted in a lot circles. In entertainment is just as accepted as coffee.

the drug is already acceptable in large parts of society. Many posh london dinner parties wouldn't be complete without it.

No. It's probably an attempt to give the drink an edgy name. Make more people try it.

Don't know, but I do know that the Coca part of Coca Cola stands for one of the two main ingredients in the original drink: Coca leaves.

No. This smacks a bit of political correctness and would make certain words unacceptable. Cocaine is a word..it exsists..use it.
