  • I like this comment. I'm getting so tired of the "my team good, your team bad" posts I'm seeing all over here. It's like both sides refuse to see issue in their way of living and get off on hating on the group that has been designated as "them".

    Making uppity remarks so that their echo chambers can go "LOL TRU" doesn't aid the discussion or allow them to learn from other view points.

  • Why aren’t health warnings on cigarettes expanded to alcohol?
  • I agree with you that prohibition isn't the way to do things. In my opinion the war on drugs is a waste of tax payers money and more importantly human life stuck behind bars. If you are speaking against criminalization of substances I'm with you. I'm however, not against harm reduction and education, including warning labels on products that are harmful.

  • Why aren’t health warnings on cigarettes expanded to alcohol?
  • Sure I'll establish it with in context. Just because "other things are also dangerous" doesn't mean warning should not be on the label of a known carcinogen. This is coming from someone who drinks more than he should.

    Putting a warning on the label of a product known to cause harm isn't "controlling others". You are free to still consume the product. It is allowing you to make an informed choice, even if you are unaware or unable to access that information from other sources.

  • Doom scrolling on corporate social media vs Bloom scrolling in the Fediverse
  • Man idk what kind of bubble you're living in. Maybe you just like to believe anything you touch in inherently better, but it really isn't. This has and will suffer from all the same pit falls as any other social media.
