And this point you're bringing up, this I totally agree with. And it seems you agree with me when I say that drinking isn't always a problem. We both agree that it can indeed be a problem, and that it surely can be a severe problem with devastating consequences.

With that said, I dislike people who drink only for the purpose of getting drunk. To me, that's drinking with the intent of harming yourself, because getting drunk is just another way of saying that the high levels of toxin you've been drinking have now affected you to the point where one would say you've been intoxicated. Like... eating too much of wrong kind of mushrooms or snorting cocaine. Sort of.
