they want it now
without anything for it
What is the point of an unachievable ideal?
you discuss politics for what can be done
not what is a fantasy that will never happen
the point is not dying fuast
you'¨re not writing a fantasy novel
The modern democratic state will probably collapse anyway
"read a book which I haven't actually read which I think ***might*** disagree with historical statistics about a prohibition event using purely ideological reasoning"
the point of politics is to partake in achievable methods of human organization that are actually practical
@Nerthulas How would you know? You haven't read it.
no, you explain to me why prohibition of something will increase its consumption
And yes, your data is trash. Accept it.
we're not in politics you junkie
you don't even know, and you're using it to make an argument
His data is accurate
politics is a means
You not liking it doesn't determine it's accuracy
that was ***one*** study
Name some good anime I haven't seen
its stops being a means the second it is no longer a tool for us
second of all
@TheUserNameofPeace Black Clover, assuming you are okay with some childishness
we have other cases than american prohibition of alcohol
countless
I'll check it out @Fénius Farsaid
@Leaf Okay, prove it.
You may or may not like it
It is hit or miss
particularly the one we've been talking about, Russia's 42% decrease in consumption
i'll say this agian, he will just refuse it until you convince him emotionally
Ok one seond
this position is not a logical one
second
it's an emotion
feels over reals
you can ltiearlly see it, no matter what you say, he'll just keep saying "but I want x"
conceptually, its not even ***possible*** that it does not decrease, or increases consumption
its impossible completely
the book you're talking about probably does not even make that argument
