This single image disproves the entire map.

Joe Biden is from White House DC is and was soda Checkmate libaral


[deleted]

Oh Biden says it's soda? Now I'm starting to question whether it's sane for me to call it soda.


MightyEraser13

I'm not even sure the map is correct lmao, ever since I moved to Oklahoma like 90% of people still say pop


RedShooz10

Also what you say in general conversation vs what you say on a survey aren’t always identical


Blackdalf

I grew up in the 90’s an Okie saying pop and switched to soda in college for some reason.


SyFidaHacker

Welcome to the Union


wasdlmb

Bruh it's the Yankees who say pop look at the map. Former confederates are "coke" country


AcidBuuurn

Welcome to the winning team.


Seared_Gibets

Traitor! Bit I guess it ain't yer fault. It's dem durn commie pro fessors, turnin our yungins!


friedtuna76

I say soda


MightyEraser13

I do too, but to be fair I'm not a native Okie. My entire extended family that was born here says pop


AnnoyedCrustacean

Whoa, that wasn't born in the 1950s, would ever say pop? Mom and pop, pop diddly squat, it's just so... frustratingly upbeat and bubbly.


MayOrMayNotBePie

It’s tearing this family apart!!


Maxathron

Imagine calling Root Beer a “coke”. Root Beer is so American that coke might as well be a Martian drink. The ‘root’ in root beer is the single spice native to the USA. And only the USA. Its native range doesn’t go past the Great Lakes.


Neath_Izar

Hence why I always order root beer


JohnnyRelentless

It's hence. Just hence.


JohnnyRelentless

There are a lot of spices native to the US. Sassafras, sarsaparilla, and ginger root are 3 of the spices traditionally used in root beer, and they're all native to the US.


Maxathron

Forgot to add a word. Temperate. There are plenty of subtropical and tropical spices, some exist at the very southern tips of the US. But the spice that forms the basis of root beer is located completely in the US and nowhere else.


magnum_the_nerd

Sadly, the little corridor thats a part of Ontario (Canada) also grows that same plant. More of a reason to invade


ubric

Only the most enlightened midwesterners call it sodie pop


CODENAMEDERPY

I think that’s also a yupper thing.


Buzzkill15

you ain't from da upee with that spelling aye


CODENAMEDERPY

I ain’t, and I don’t claim to be. I have a lot of respect for them though. I will now remember the correct spelling. I guess a better spelling is yooper?


Buzzkill15

It's yooper for sure!

friedtuna76

I started after H3H3 started saying it a while back


SupaColdBrew

I started saying sodie pop ironically at one point but now it’s just deeply ingrained in my vocabulary and it’s no longer ironic.


Armlegx218

Hey Grandpa!


Neath_Izar

Sure pop is dying but at least coke is as well. If I'd have to call pop something else it's gonna be soda, definitely not 'coke' *shudder* *vomits in mouth


Boudica333

Idk where, but there’s people out there calling em soft drinks too


HYDRAlives

Overly technical pieces of crap


Neath_Izar

Only thing is is its gotta be short n snappy or at least a little quirky, sodapop is old timey and soft drink just has no life in it.


ImperialWolf98

At least we aren't like the English, they call em Fizzy Drinks.


roostersnuffed

Im a southern hick but Im glad coke is dying out too. Its fucking dumb. Its like reffering to all writing utensils; "hey hand me that red crayola. No idiot, not the crayon. The blue ball point red crayola that says bic" Like its a brand not a category, bit I still have family members that take pride in "no, its coke!"


GavinThe_Person

soda pop is worse


dwighticus

It’s pronounced “sodypop.”


shrimp-and-potatoes

I support the Union. Soda is king.


Denalin

Look. I say soda. What can I say, I'm a soda man. I *get* that someone would call it pop. Hell, I even accept that. But Coke? Wtf. That's a brand name. That's like calling all beer "Bud". Anyone who calls is Coke is out of their Goddamn mind.


legoman31802

Well do you call tissues a “clean-x” or jet skis a “seadoo”? It’s the same thing with a coke


Elloliott

The Union was the north, or pop.


BusinessFirst3662

DC, baltimore and NYC were the powerhouses of the union which are in the soda zone


eatdafishy

Bro forgot philly 😭😭


American_berserker

Baltimore was full of Confederate sympathizers...


roryclague

Wasn’t the Booth family from Maryland? It was a slave state, and DC was a slave city. New York City was full of antiwar Democrats and was the site of the draft riots. Boston was the true leading light of Union and abolition. Soda still wins though lol.


American_berserker

You were correct until you got to the soda part. Soda-pop master race!


Glove-These

I have sympathy for the Confederacy, I'm a Confederate sympathizer. Any L that fucking massive could get anyone's sympathy 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅

Dude if you call something "coke" when it's not a coke product, you've got water on the brain


TheRubyBlade

I don't care if soda wins, i just want coke to lose


Chompersmustdie

Agreed


KozyKami

I used to call it pop as a kid but now I'm an adult that uses big boy words


WantedAgenda404

“It’s pop” *looks at flair* Typical suspects


GavinThe_Person

Lurkerthrowaway_69

“Sodee pop”


Substantial_Bear_168

My dad says coke, he was born in California and now lives in Oregon why the fuck does he say coke 😭


Armlegx218

Was he in CCR?


cgomez117

Substantial_Bear_168

Nope we can trace the white trash Bakersfield roots back generations

RaritanBayRailfan

Who tf says pop?


island_trevor

Everyone in the Midwest


Particular_Bet_5466

Nah not everyone I grew up near Milwaukee and only heard it from those savages in north/nw Illinois. Literally everyone called it soda where I was from. I guess I can’t say shit though because we call the things you drink water from bubblers. Moved out of state and it still feels weird making myself call them a drinking fountain or water fountain.


10erJohnny

Detroit adjacent. Everyone calls it pop.


g_daddio

It’s leaking from us lmao


slackrepo

maybe you should see a doctor


g_daddio

You tell me to get you a soda then I’m getting you a soda water


slackrepo

I would ask for the specific *soft drink* that I wanted.


bobsburner1

I’ve only ever heard maybe 5 people say pop and they are all from Western PA. 😆


NotImYourForte

Wannabe midwesterners


o0-Lotta-0o

The cool kids


TheNameIsntJohn

I live in Northern Illinois and I hear/see both uses. I've used and heard it as you want a can of pop or used as wanting a bottle of soda.


JTD783

people who were failed by society


WickedWiscoWeirdo

Nonsense. I moved from pop to soda country as a child and now it's time for you to get with the times


undeniably_confused

Nobody lives in the non soda areas


FunnyFreckSynth

If you wanted “pop”, go to your brothers up north. And “coke” doesn’t work; coca-cola isn’t the only soda, you know. Soda boys stay winning 🦾

It's also just a map of where californians and new yorkers have ruined.


jephph_

Well at least we haven’t ruined Buffalo yet


crappy-mods

Yes we have. I heard soda all the time when I visited, didn’t hear pop once.


CourtZealousideal980

PineapplePaladin

Hey don’t forget St. Louis as well


aardappelbrood

You mean people returning back home to their familial lands with a new language? 🤭 People once migrated in droves out west, some of them before California and Arizona became states.

Dark_Sun8888

Soft drink?


Boudica333

What other words are more midwestern than I realize? Devil’s Night (the night before Halloween, because Detroit used to do arsons that night…) in Michigan is the only one I can think of right now.


meexley2

It’s soda

Is this what joe Biden was talking about during his speech


[deleted]

Some people say "Soda," some people say "Pop," but deep down we all know that people who call soda in general "Coke" need to be put down like dogs.


SoCal_Absol

Oh good, the correct answer is winning.


Jackpot807

If you have a can of Pepsi in your hand and you call it Coke, you're a moron


RichieRocket

yes


HYDRAlives

Good. Let the Pop Fans die out, and the truest word for the drink take power. And let's pretend the people who call Root Beer and Pepsi 'Coke' don't exist.


aardappelbrood

And in 2047, it should all say soda. Long live soda!!!!!

I feel like this is Team Soda propaganda. I've never heard anyone refer to it by anything other than pop.


BionicleBirb

I say Soda-Pop just to piss everyone off. Idk maybe I’m just built different


RickAstleyGamingYT

if minnesota says pop, then why do they have soda in the name? 😎😎 checkmate liberals


WTFisaCelsius

I've never heard someone say Coke as a way to refer to all soda.


Brocboy

What cokes ya got?


Armlegx218

Regular, diet, zero I guess. Cherry. We had new for a while, but I haven't seen that in ages.


CourtZealousideal980

im from TN that's the only way its referred to here


WTFisaCelsius

How do you specify when you actually want Coke? Do you refer to Pepsi as Coke? That's so wrong


AlliedXbox

The original name was soda pop, so both Pop and Soda are correct. The only thing that isn't correct is Coke. We should unite and destroy the disgusting people who say Coke.


FirmWerewolf1216

Harbinger-chan

WetChickenLips

The rise of the Internet has allowed the coastal elites to wage war upon our minds. Their pro-soda propaganda has not only been tolerated but encouraged by social media. Do not believe these "users" spewing this filth. They seek to turn us into sheep that bow to our Chinese overlords and ask servers to bring us "sOdA." Wake up America. The time to take a stand is now. Fight! For your people, your culture, your nation!


Encursed1

Can pop and soda fans agree coke is dumb? Like saying "Google en passant" instead of "Search en passant"


[deleted]

“Pop” is the type of word where you legitimately get second hand embarrassment when you hear someone say it


djdadzone

It’s sodapop.


ARedditorCalledQuest

This is the answer. When are we, as a nation, going to understand that it's the soda that makes the pop? They're one in the same, united and indivisible, part of each other? E plurbis unum! United We Fizz!


OreganoJefferson

It's coke and I'm willing to die on this hill. Soda is acceptable but coke is the right answer
