:Kool-Aid is also the ''de facto'' name for any powdered drink mix, whether it's Flavorade, or Wyler's, or any other; people will call the stuff "Kool-Aid" regardless of what it is.  "Drinking the Kool-Aid" comes directly from that incident, and it has been used as a metaphor to describe the idiotic-to-suicidal proposals made by the left over the years; it has stuck with them, and they want to get rid of it.  To that end they will continually say that it was Flavorade used in that cocktail, not Kool-Aid at all, and the side-implication was that the Kool-Aid was never there.  Since stating that they have never once shown a single photograph taken at the site in the week following the massacre of torn up Flavorade packets; if found ''they have to only be'' Flavorade packets, and not Kool-Aid, right?  Contradicting the naysayers, it is Jim Jones himself who is opening a trunk of his supplies in this video[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=najBMAItPYU], revealing both Flavorade ''and Kool-Aid'', and calling the whole thing Kool-Aid.  Both were there in his trunk in Jonestown at least one year prior to the massacre, and when the massacre did take place I can bet that the clowns that mixed the batch weren't going to stand there and debate which brand to pick.

:And incidentally, as a side-note the trunk also contained Royal gelatin.  By habit we still call that brand and similar ones "Jello".  [[User:Karajou|Karajou]] ([[User talk:Karajou|talk]]) 14:57, 31 January 2019 (EST)

::I don't get why you're so bothered by this. No amount of evidence to the contrary is ever going to remove "drinking the Kool-Aid" from common parlance. Let's imagine some top-notch research reveals Caesar was actually assassinated on 16th March. No-one's going to abandon "Beware the Ides of March", are they?
