[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s so sad how strongly you will all defend alcohol to your deaths, just to justify your own use. You don’t think smoking was also once such a thing? [/quote] Well alcohol has been around for much of human history, while chemical filled cigarettes were mostly an invention of the 20th century. But keep plugging away at those false equivalencies. [/quote] Yeah, Heroin PP is stretching it. I do appreciate the criticism of how engrained alcohol consumption is to American culture, and I personally don't participate in or like "mommy juice" or sports-binge-drinking culture and I don't find it cute. But, I think the inclination to demonize alcohol to the degree PP does is problematic -- it makes people less likely to talk about their drinking, and driving it underground is not a good thing. No one likes sanctimony. One can simultaneously recognize that many people drink too much but dismiss their drinking as stress relief or normal, but also recognize that many people don't do that.
