Alcohol should be banned.
Alcohol should be banned. Its a terrible drug that makes you feel trash.

Whenever I drink, I feel bad the next day, anxious, weak and like something is about to happen "hanxiety".

Many others become addicts or even die on alcohol. Even in small amounts alcohol has no actual advantage, its still a nerve poison.

BAN alcohol in Europe and be done with it. My idea.

Or how about you drink responsibly instead?

I take 1-3 shots on celebrations and I feel good, I never overdo it. One time when I felt like I was getting dizzy I took an old laptop and had a Silent Hill 3 session on it, it was incredible.

1. Because when I drink one beer, I need to drink as many as I can until I pass out.

2. Because even small amounts are not actually good for your body.

Its a drug, its harmful and not good.

They tried that once. It didn't work. Then the government started selling it itself with it's own set regulations and taxes. Well that's how it works in my country.

But think about it friendo.
If even the government is too scared to ban this drug, isn't this the ultimate statement and signpost of how dangerous and invasive alcohol is ?

Dude in my country Germany, we now have a higher alcohol consumption than Russia. Its insane.

Even if they rise sky high taxes, people then will start to smuggle it ! With the difference that no one can arrest them for it as its hard to identify where it came from.

ALCOHOL BAN NOW

You can't, because the economic significance and relevance to culture is too big.

And don't put it in a corner with cannabis, because cannabis has no economic significance or cultural relevance and it shouldn't be allowed to develop any.

Good luck banning something that is made with extremely easily acquirable ingredients. Might as well try to ban sugar.

And? When alcohol got banned people became criminals just to drink it by brewing it at home in secrecy. That kind of stuff sounds like a violation of rights and freedoms which is uncool. You saying you want rights and freedom stripped away? Sounds so uncoolio of you broski. :steambored:

Alcohol has zero cultural significance to culture.
Economy, ok thats arguable.

Human health should come first. Alcohol destroys entire socieities.

Many other drugs such as meth and what not can be made easily at home, yet its banned.

We just need a harsh ban and an own agency to investigate this to arrest criminals who decide to make and consume alc. Simple.

If you can't control yourself around the drug, then don't consume it or just avoid it. Easy.

Not how drugs work though.

If your logic was as " easy " as you try to sell it on here, we would literally have no drug addicts on the entire planet.

Complete nonsense. Its like telling a homeless guy: Just buy a house.

You admitted you have a problem. Now it's time to address your problem and fix it.

This does not change the fact that alcohol is a dangerous drug overtaking socieities. You won't solve that problem by telling people :" Its a you problem, just dont drink it ".

This needs a ban.

It was like the 1800s mate. Times change ! We now can effectively execute such ban.
