Why is alcohol legal if it's much more harmful than marijuana?

What do you think the question is?

It took me several reads to figure it out, but I think I know what Dasus is trying to say now

Because alcoholics are often violent.

Weeders rarely are.

Violent alcoholics means that they'll fight to maintain access to their poison of choice, whereas the lethargy that comes with marijuana will have the opposite effect.

Yeah I got that too after a couple reads, I was just super turned off by how they responded to me. I definitely disagree with this analysis anyhow, I think it's more about racism/cultural control.

Should I just copy paste the title or can we skip over that and get to the part where you get mad because you're ignorant of the history and motivations of prohibitions?

I'm not mad it just seems like you're answering a different question lol. You seem mad tho, so bye I guess

But you clearly see the question, and know I do as well.

Thus you should conclude you're wrong about thinking I'm answering a different question, which shouldn't lead you to understand you may have misunderstood/missed/be ignorant of something.

But that's just too much to ask on an online forum.

Yeah you're too good for this place, go somewhere else

Seems like you're too good to ask what someone else meant by their comment.

So if your first assumption isn't right, you get frustrated and claim the other person is arrogant?

I have an actual argument. Yours is "I don't understan what you're saying and I refuse to acknowledge that could be due a lack of understanding, despite that being literally what it is."

What don't you ask me what I meant? Which part did you find confusing?

Oh you're still here

lol and you edited your comment to actually ask a clarifying question

Oh you still can't stay what you find so confusing about my answer, but have to keep coming back to show it?

why would I bother to have a conversation with someone who came out the gate swinging lol

Uhm, I left a comment to which you replied "I don't understand and I refuse to even attempt to".

So in your terms you "came" at me, not the other way around.

My answer is a direct answer to the question OP asked. If you find something confusing about it, please, tell me what, so I can help you understand.

Stop the childish bullshit.

please keep these comments coming 😂

I will, actually.

We're in a forum. OP asked a question. I answered. Then you popped up to gibber inanely about how you don't understand what is being discussed.

Why are you in this post or thread if not for the topic? For... the childish personal bullshit?

Tell me what you don't understand about my answer.
