I choose not to drink alcohol. When I see other people posting about what they drink, I don’t go around telling other people they shouldn’t. These are personal choices. We’re both aware of the potential health consequences of our chosen actions. I believe people should be free to do what they want as long as they aren’t hurting other people. I don’t want to think the worst of you, but the only reason I think of for you to make your comment was from a position of moral superiority. I know I’ve been guilty of that before and been ashamed of it later. Did I just catch you on a bad day?
No. I’m pointing out to others who may read this thread that if they have been stuck in the mindset of choosing between options of sugary cereal, that they have the other option of simply not consuming it. We often forget that these sorts of options exist, because no one talks about them.
Also, the example you pulled from my post history is profoundly weird, because it makes me look good… Like, I’m saying that I enjoy something, but recognize that it is an indulgence and then moderate my indulgence because other things are more important to me. I dunno, sounds pretty reasonable to me.

Ouch. Doubling down on the superiority, huh? That’s a bad look, friend.
Okay, following your logic, should I go to your beer post you made 4 hours ago and as a reply put :
“I mean, the better alternative is to just not drink alcohol.”
Is that helpful at all? Would you welcome that reply? Would that be productive to the conversation at all where you are celebrating your enjoyment of something? Should I remind others reading your post that “have been stuck in the mindset of choosing between” drinking to excess or to moderation that they have other options of simply not consuming it? Should I remind people reading your post about your enjoyment of alcohol (even in moderation) that these sort of options exists, because no one talks about them? Do you see how pretentious and unwelcome that would look as reply to your alcohol drinking post?
I mean, the better alternative is to just not buy sugary cereal.
Are you really in a position to criticize others on what they consume?

Somehow you turned something so lighthearted into something so pointlessly judgemental.
Like yeah we shouldn’t eat sugary cereals, and if it’s expensive a good alternative is to cut it out. This is just facts.
No need to go digging around their post history like that. It’s just kinda weird

Actually, never mind I don’t really want to start flinging this kind of shit here yet, the ignorant peace is kinda nice.
I’m not quite following you, but I respect it. I’ll delete my reply to you before this one, and even this one after you read it.

Do you often forget other food exists?
