  • If you don't trigger any effects

    OK and what about for the people who one drink does trigger an effect?

    a single drink for most adults

    Again, what about for the people who it does? You're being quite absolute here. What I'm saying is you cannot use amount alone to determine whether or not it's problematic. You said it yourself, it's a factor. You originally used it as a determinant.

    So no, that is not in fact how addiction works. I've spent the last 10 years studying psychology and I'm a PhD student in the field now.

  • That's not how addiction works. Firstly, addiction is not a defined term in the medical or psychological fields so the conversation is kind of pointless. Secondly, amount has nothing to do with it. Lots of people have a "nightcap to help them sleep" every night. That is dependence and problematic or colloquially, addiction even if it's only one drink.

  • In fact I remember the KKK being the first organization's to endorse Trump. I remember this because the second was Yueng Ling which I refuse to drink even though I love cheap lagers. This was early on, so not the common blanket endorsement of the party's nominee, but genuinely working to sway the primaries when it wasn't yet clear he'd win even the republican primary.

  • Sure, if you want to heighten economic disparity. Other modes of transport need to be made more available and affordable first. It's not practical or even possible for me to take public transit 99% of the time so making gas that insanely expensive would do nothing but drain my bank account, as with the majority of Americans.

  • Given that most cities have areas with varying proportions of people of different ethnicities, yeah it can be discriminatory. They just target certain neighborhoods and know that those are far more likely to be people of a certain background. Not saying they did or didn't do it here, but that's how they can do things like that.
