      Rather than downvoting, I’d like to ask why you think all forms of alcohol for consumption should be illegal

        Probably because they’re basically poison that has to be filtered out and fucks up your liver and kidneys.

          If we forbid things just because they are mildly toxic, we would need to forbid almost everything. Including oxygen and water.

          Ok, but there are plenty of other items that that do that as well. It’s not a call out of “all drugs, including tobacco and alcohol”. It’s not a callout of microplastics. So there’s something specific to alcohol.

            Being widespread. One bad set of laws in bad place in bad time (propination laws in eastern Europe in XVIII-XIX century) caused untold suffering and is keenly felt to this day, showing how easily hundreds of millions of people can be fucked up by poisonous commodity.

            I’m not for entirely banning alcohol, but only because it would be rather futile, but for restrictions in its selling and far going educational campaigns to finally get rid of it - and it is possible, even if not entirely, looking at the decline of consumption of other poison, tobacco.

    Pets. Or at least you need to know how to take care of them.

    For example rabbits shouldn’t be alone.

    And wtf is up with putting birds in cages? They are supposed to be free and fly you sick ****!

    Dogs on chains…

    I feel I can continue forever and it’s sad.

    Capitalism

    EDIT: also i read the other comments and hilarious amount of other things mentioned also boils down to “capitalism” or their illegalisation would basically needed for capitalism to be outlawed too.

      A bit tired and misread this as Capitalisation. That caused my brain to freeze, then reboot 🤣

          If writing in the German language (DSL for interfacing with Germans) should use PascalCase for nouns and camelCase for everything else.

          Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz vs RindFleischEtikettierungsÜberwachungsAufgabenÜbertragungsGesetz

          Much more readable.
