Pop is such an antiquated Midwestern word that I usually only hear it from people who say they worsh themselves in a crick with all their cousins. There's a whole dialect attached to that word.

We need to recognize Pop and roll back these Soda colonizer settlements to the 1947 border.

POP AM BYTH!

those aren't based patriots... they're woke coastal elites 😔

i moved to the upper midwest and started saying pop purely as a gesture against cultural homogenization

I can understand calling it “pop” but calling all soda “coke” seems really strange to me but maybe I just haven’t hung around enough southerners?

I think we need to compromise and all agree on 'sodypop'

I've noticed this shift personally. Lived my whole life in PNW, grew up calling it pop and thought soda was a weird word.

Now my friends and I all call it soda or sodie but my parents still call it pop.

I love that the Coke blob is most of Georgia with a huge cutout around Atlanta, where Coca-Cola is headquartered

We’ve divided the theater, secured our transcontinental supply lines, and now we’re just mopping up.

We live in a pop zone, I am a proud popper... And yet my partner, born and raised here, calls it soda. We are a family at war.

the linguists are lying about the Coke thing. As someone who has lived in a solid Coke zone according to this map but use soda as the generic term, I have never noticed it or had a misunderstanding based on Coke used in a generic way.

I think what’s true is that there is not a consensus on the term for soda (you’ll see soda, fountain drink, soft drink, canned drink, etc) and that Coke and it’s variants (diet, cherry etc) have a large market share, so people end up using the specific name instead of a generic term.

I checked a non chain restaurant in small town Minnesota, and saw pop on the menu. Same for soda in NJ. I looked at a couple dozen restaurants in MS, GA, TN, and AL and couldn’t find one using Coke to refer to anything other than Coca Cola.

I say sodey pop

As a pop drinker, it never made sense to me that people in the south call all soda "coke".

Smh my head, COASTAL ELITES engaging in COLONIALISM and CULTURAL GENOCIDE

"Pop"? Howsabout I POP you on the nose for not calling it SODA like a real PATRIOT, smartass?

Come now 'merica. It's time to admit that these are all "fizzy drinks".

2025: Cornpop

SODA!

April 2075.

Soda is the master of linguistics.

Only North Dakota stands before it.

Vending machines are now battlefields.

See, Missouri was always terrible

where I come from they call all soda 'pepsi' lol

Now we need to eradicate the last vestiges of the use of "on accident" and the positive anymore.

So the genocide carbonators of sodastream clearly believe the proper term is soda. Apply BDS to your vocabulary and replace it soda with with pop, fizzy drink, ect.
