People come after me for being anti-drug and say “alcohol is legal!” And I’m at the point where I’m just like “you know what, I would make that trade. Alcohol is involved in half of all violent crime and over half of all fatal car accidents, we should outlaw that too. I would honestly outlaw it just to get you to shut up about making meth legal.” Of course, then I get called a fascist, or an equivalent, even on here. I love to relax with 1-2 quality cold beers occasionally. But obviously 1) people can’t be trusted with alcohol, 2) idiots won’t shut up about how we should have no rules of any kind because alcohol is legal, and 3) prohibition fucking worked (alcohol consumption was cut by 30-70% during different parts of prohibition, despite loopholes). Alcohol just isn’t worth it. I mean for fucks sake, we just had cities brought to their knees, police defunded and murdered, violent crime skyrocketing, and businesses burned down, because the police had to arrest a guy for drunk driving (and the drunk wasn’t having any of it, likely because he was fucking drunk) And their argument is “well it’s just going so gosh darn well with alcohol, let’s make meth and heroin legal too!” Fuck.
