For decades, studies suggested that moderate alcohol intake could protect the heart, reduce diabetes risk, or even help you live longer. Newer research tells a different story.
So many people defending alcohol, it shows the current alcoholism problem.
You get told that something useless (yes alcohol is useless, if you don’t agree you might already have a problem), that causes a LOT of deaths, violence and sickness, is absolutely not healthy (I struggle understanding how people were still believing that shit), and your reaction is to try to argue against it?
Then people panic at the mention of sweeteners because “maybe they’re dangerous”, but for alcohol which is one of the biggest sources of avoidable deaths, nah, it’s probably fine, no matter what science says.
I don’t think the person you’re replying to is talking about somebody having a few drinks on a weekend to take the edge off and relax. They’re talking about addiction, which is not pleasurable.

Addiction is a sad thing.
yeah god forbid someone find a bit of pleasure in the smouldering shitscape.
