As someone who enjoys alcohol, but extremely rarely to excess and it's never caused me to be an issue, yeah alcohol is worse than many illegal drugs. I don't get it. Alcohol makes people aggressive and make bad decisions frequently. Marijuana makes people chill out and sit around normally. Why wasn't that the one that was legal all this time? I've also almost exclusively heard good things about psilocybin, but haven't tried it myself. I don't want alcohol to be illegal or anything, but people should be more careful of it, and it shouldn't be as acceptable to abuse.
ofc I don't think you'll solve alcoholism with cops and prisons :s and honestly i know one can drink responsibly but a lot of people abuse it. Be careful out there
Alcohols the default legal one because people can brew it in any jug with some yeast and sugar. If it were invented today it wouldn't have been legalized. And the attempts to prohibit it went very poorly and of course show us why all prohibitions like that do is funnel money to criminals and poison people.
I mean, don't they exist for like the sole purpose of giving them special treatment over other, sometimes safer, drugs and things that cause harm to innocent bystanders?
