Well
hm
It's a mixed bag
On one hand, it has been the fuel of 2000 years of men
And on the other, 100% degenerate
Negative overall effect, alcohol is unnecessary and only a commodity.
*says while drinking a coors light*
can we have a new question?
this one is gay
Actually alcohol was very important back in ye olden days
Water used to be polluted to high hell
@Da_Fish can we have a question about terrorism and insurgency tomorrow
It was safer for children even to drink booze instead of water
But during for example the Middle Ages serfs needed the carbs of beer to stay productive.
@Commissar Femto what question?
hm
"is insuregency and terrorism valid to use" or something
when it was considered only a social or ritualistic drink then it was rathe rpositive, it was also considered medicinal. However it has become laicizised? so taken away the mystical element and its a regular part of life, as a result its has gone to abuse since its significance has been reduced to basically water, which that even has more of a ritual sense to it than alcohol
water was usually boiled
or taken from "safe" sources
no one could run on alcohol constantly, everyone would die at 30 and be too retarded to work the land.
it has to take a ritualistic or mdicinal quality to it again, otherwise its gonna simply continue to be abused
Why ritualistic?
because rituals command respect, add a spiritual level and make the substance in essence part of the ethereal. To abuse it is essentially to attempt to cheat spirituality or what is socially acceptable in meetings etc. Generally this means people will most likely externally generate pressure to obey the unwritten spiritual moral laws
altenratively some countries legit need prohibition to reduce alcoholism
and liver cirhossis
Ah
So the ritual aspect keeps it from being abused or at least deters abuse of it.
yes
Negative
I don’t think alcohol corrupts people besides major alcoholics#
the question's too simplistic - modernity has had a negative effect and that's what makes alcohol abuse so pervasive, alcohol in small amounts, particularly red wine for males, has positive/neutral effects on one's health
more "trad" autism
the past was very moral
public executions

greek homosexuality
public flogging
this reminds me of that episode of Bullshit!

The west must be destroyed
