I said no such thing. I know it's destructive (especially with the ban on other substances leading to an overconsumption), but it did not lead to a degeneration.
And as studies came to light, as the scientific consensus slowly but surely arrives at the "most likely no safe amount" conclusion, it gets less and less glamorized in TV shows, and young people are already drinking less (probably because they're on tiktok and screens instead). Despite all the advertisement for alcohol.
Why would you even think alcohol has no negative effects on society?
