The Truth We Won't Admit: Drinking Is Healthy

[KCDem]

This is all quite a crock of BS -- the conclusions it draws (the U.S. has more diabetes and heart problems because we drink less than Europeans?) are laughable. Yes, talk to any medical professional and that is exactly the answer you'll find :eyeroll:

Really? Drinking, more often than not, is glorified in the U.S. - every advertisement, every song, every piece of pop culture exalts drinking excessively when it's arguably one of the most toxic drugs in existence

You're crazy if you believe this. Go crawl back into your puritanical hole.

Admittedly it is not as bad a Heroin, but it does more societal damage than any other drug due to its ubiquity.

Alcohol has, without a doubt, done more damage to society than any drug in all of history. Period. This is not puritanism; this is a fact. I'm not calling for prohibition - but if people need better drug education, it's regarding how to handle alcohol.

To claim this remains ludicrous. One word: tobacco.
