[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn't even plan to give it up completely but once you're sober you realize how cringe drinking is and how the masses are under a spell. I don't even want to be associated with alcohol anymore.

Why do you reflexively need a glass of wine or cocktail right when you sit down at a restaurant? Why do you reflexively need beers at an MLB baseball game? Why do middle aged parents at a travel sports tournament or work conference reflexively need to act like unreformed frat boys and sorority girls?

A hundred million Americans trained to act like Pavlov's dogs. I'm now convinced entire industry is a predatory psyop to ruin lives and dumb the masses down.[/quote]
I agree with this. I remember about 20 years ago there were all these cutsie tchotzkes for wine drinking aimed at women, and watching actors in movies (whose bodies don't look like drinkers' bodies) blithely drink glasses of wine at every dinner, as if wine drinking isn't really drinking alcohol, and has no ill effects. It's a cruel joke. [/quote]

Really pay attention to people around you in a restaurant. The way they sit down and immediately order drinks. How their voice raises and they have some cutesy way to frame it. It's honestly pathetic.[/quote]
