I thought we decided prohibition didnt work and repealed the 18th amendment like 80 years ago? who the fuck do these faggots think they are? just another example of liberal cuck-supported career criminal politicians legislating authoritarian rules for you plebs

Fuck off faggot, prohibition of hard liquor should be brought back and hard-liquor bootleggers should be executed for their crime. Beer and wine are okay though.
>>71391417
I had no idea one could be so fucking dense
KILL US!
>>71391417
wtf did you just ignore the last 200 years of history?
seriously guys, how did this legislation get voted through?
>>71391721
>The California Senate has voted to ban...
>>71391721
I'm thinking powered alcohol is not in the interest of liquor companies and CEOs pull a lot of power in cali.
I wonder if we'll hear about the health hazards of powered alcohol in the news.
>>71391552
Nothing in the history of the past 200 years indicates that prohibition is bad.
>>71391512
You're historically illiterate and blind to the effects that hard liquor has and has had on individuals and communities. Did you know that hard liquor did really exist until the industrial revolution and industrial distilling techniques were developed?
>>71391721
It was a good thing
>>71392035
Didn't* really exist until the industrial revolution.
I just noticed and empty wallet looks like a vagina, and a vagina is the quickest way to empty a wallet. TELL ME WE ARE NOT IN THE MATRIX
>>71392035
>>71392125
I'm historically illiterate? Is this bait?
We tried prohibition. It was a disaster. Fucking retard.
>>71392035
>guy arguing for prohibition calling anyone else historically illiterate
kek
>>71392242
>>71392374
Yeah but this time we have legal weed, maybe it can be transitioned out by slowly increasing the age requirement like we do with minimum wage.
>>71392242
No it wasn't. It worked fine. It certainly wasn't "a disaster."
You've been watching too much Jewish anti-prohibition propaganda. You do know the story of the Eastern European Jews, hard liquor and the Ukrainian / Polish / Russian peasants living in the Pale of Settlement, right?Also do you know about the relationship between hard liquor and the British vis à vis Ireland?
>>71391318
>bans powdered alcohol
Pls explain to me how this is wrong without using memes.
>>71392035
personal computers didnt exist until about 30 years ago. lots of people have used computers to break laws, are you not blind to the effects that high-bandwidth internet has on individuals and communities? all that porn should be banned. internet should be banned!! where do you think people research how to do crimes? google of course. lets shut down google!!!
>>71392725
because alcohol is completely legal in every state, and california chose to ban it?
>>71392710
Mob shill who misses the good ol' days
>>71392863
>because alcohol is completely legal in every state, and california chose to ban it?
Only powered alcohol.
>>71392710
>biggest crime wave in us history
>"it worked fine"
You just want to ban it because your daddy loved you a little too much when he drank it
>>71392725
the most convenient way to bring booze to recreation in the outdoors or to the beach in thousands of years gets banned. while the same exact intoxicating substance in heavier, more cumbersome and less portable form is "socially acceptable" by the fuckislators
>>71392725
Because they banned the product before it even hit the market because of fear mongering.
>>71392374
Do you know anything about the exploitation of Slavic peasants by Jews in the Pale of Settlement in the latter half of the 19th Century? If yes, do you know about the integral role industrially distilled hard liquor played in this exploitation?
>>71392795
Porn should be banned, yes. High bandwidth bandwidth is a great thing though. You can have high bandwidth Internet and still ban Internet pornography.
>>71392710
>>71391417
>>71392035
>claims hard liquor has only existed since the industrial era
>completely ignores empirical evidence of distilled liquor dating back to roman times
>doesnt even know the medieval term aqua vitae
it's almost like you're an uneducated liberal shill ban-everything faggot
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distilled_beverage#History_of_distillation
>>71392919
which is still a fucking infringement on the rights of people to enjoy shit at their own option. see >>71392966
its one of the most innovative ways to imbibe alcohol in the last thousand years. incredibly convenient for transport and recreation. and their reason for banning it was literally "teens will abuse it"
>>71393134
>do you know about this one extremely specific scenario where hard liquor may have possibly potentially played a role
Who fucking cares if some slavs decided to get wasted over 100 years ago?
>>71391318
Am I the only one who doesn't know what the fuck powdered alcohol is?
>>71393202
My knowledge is not wrong, but that Wikipedia article is. Those beverages in the Middle Ages were not the same as the beverages we drink now and they were not produced on an industrial scale.
>>71393353
And not to mention that it isn't even available yet, so they literally banned it on hypotheticals.
>>71393134
you think high bandwidth is great, i know it should be banned because of it's inherent ability to be abused by copyright infrintement pirates. how do i know you arent using it for porn?
>literally your own cuck logic
how about you mind your own business faggot and stop worrying about what other people do
>>71392685
Stop trying to push this "everyone should switch from alcohol to weed meme" Weed makes you a useless fuck. Sure alcohol might have more overall potential for abuse, and if I had to pick between smoking or drinking 24/7 for the rest of my life I would pick the first. But you average alcohol user is an infinitely more productive member of society than your average smoker, and lives a much more balanced and healthy life.
>>71393365
Because it destroyed entire peasant communities were destroyed you heartless piece of shit.
>>71393544
and the most important thing to keep in mind is:
no one is forcing you to do something, so if other people want to do it, fucking mind your own business.
Itt: how to create organized crime and black markets. That all a ban ever does
>>71393134
I enjoy it, so I'm gonna disagree with you.
Now were 1 for 1, evenly tied.
And I think a lotta people here will take my side long before they take yours.
>>71393666
Nice Satanic trips. Anyway, what created the mafia in America was the mass immigration of Eastern European Jews from the Russian Empire in the early 1900's.
>>71393631
Oh I'm sorry did the jews put funnels down the throats of those Slavs and force them to drink? No? Then why the fuck should I care? There isn't even anyone alive who can remember that bullshit?
>>71393544
Bullshit, crashing into cars and killing people is very counter productive. So is liver damage, loss of brain cells, etc. I very easily say alcohol is less productive than cannabis.
>>71394011
No they didn't force them, but they offered them the liquor at rock bottom prices and then raised the prices once they got hooked. Also keep in mind that the peasants had very little knowledge about the addictive or adverse health effects of alcohol.
>>71391318
What the fuck? If you legalize it the liquor cartels won't be able to make as much money.
>>71394455
the bottom line is anyone should have the right to use either one if they want to.
we already have laws against driving intoxicated under any substance and killing people. enforce those laws and let people live their lives
>>71391318
alcohol is for degenerates
I couldn't really care any less about its legal status, but "powdered alcohol" sounds like a profoundly stupid idea.
>>71391318
Powered alcohol? Wat.
>>71394713
Not at all. They should be banned and dealers / smugglers of either should be executed.
>>71394951
Of hard liquor*
Again, beer and wine are okay.
>>71394631
And again, why the fuck should I care? It happened over 100 years ago. Why the fuck is this one incident justification to ban all alcohol well over a century after the fact half a world away?
>>71394821
Some horrible, horrible industrially manufactured product that should never have been created in the first place.
>>71391318
It's so venues don't lose their ability to charge $15 for Bud Light during Lakers games
>>71394979
But why are they ok? Because you like them? The only difference? What level of alcohol content is the barrier between okay and BAN IT OH GOD THINK OF THE SLAVS.
>>71394979
explain why beer and wine are okay
explain how you are a massive faggot for continuing to troll this thread
>>71395063
i think this is the real reason
>>71392035
So you're saying that the advent of strong spirits immediately preceded the largest jumps in technology and civilization in all of human history?
Well when you put it like that, now you sound like even more of a shitheel.
>>71391417
>Beer and wine
Need beer and wine for cooking at the least anyways.
>>71394980
It's not one incident. It has occurred in many different areas and many different time periods since the industrial revolution made mass-production of hard liquor possible.
>banning powdered alcohol
>but dude weed lmao
The fucking fun police strike again. The government in California is the state equivalent of 'stop liking what I don't like'.
>>71391937
>I'm thinking powered alcohol is not in the interest of liquor companies and CEOs pull a lot of power in cali.

>I wonder if we'll hear about the health hazards of powered alcohol in the news.
Possible. I imagine the same thing has been happening around e-cigs and all that.
>>71395136
Not preceded, it was one of the products of said technological leap. Just like nuclear and chemical weapons.
>>71395215
>The fucking fun police strike again. The government in California is the state equivalent of 'stop liking what I don't like'.
I doubt I'll understand the attraction to California ever. Especially with all those empty states nearby.

Sharia law for cuckfornia?
>>71395452
We live in the most prosperous and peaceful time known to man. Clearly booze isn't that bad. Also you never explained why beer is fine but liquor isn't.
>>71395224
E-cigs are still pretty terrible for your health - it's just that cigarettes are far worse.
The neckbeard stigma was created because the tobacco industry has their cock firmly shoved down tumblr's throat. Every numale/tumblrcunt that turns into a reaction image at the sight of a sloppy white guy with a vape will always have either a cowboy killer or an American spirit in their hand. There has not been a more successful astroturfing campaign ever executed.
>tfw Californian
SEND HELP
>>71395537
>we live in prosperous peaceful times therefore hard liquor isn't bad
Retard logic.
And because beer can't be as easily abused. Although light beer might need to be banned; heavy, thick beer is much more difficult to abuse.
>>71395774
>beer isn't easy to abuse
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>71392725
The kikes/WASPs who own Sports stadiums won't be able to sell you a $15 cup of watered down piss.
>>71395825
Heavy, thick beer.
>>71395774
yawn
>>71395849
well you seem have no trouble abusing heavy thick cock
>>71395774
I am an alcoholic and can tell you that anything containing alcohol can and will be abused. It's an extremely powerful substance.
I'm still anti-regulation because I was destined for this addiction but alcohol is objectively easily abused in any form.
>>71393666
Nah not if there's already a viable legal alternative on the market. People won't give a shit they'll keep drinking Coors lite like the good goyim they are
>>71396017
anything can be abused. people snort paint fumes for fucks sake
>>71396027
the problem is powdered alcohol is fucking unique. as someone already pointed out, you can take it into sporting arenas where they normally charge $20 for a can of coors light. you can take it to the beach without bringing heavy glass bottles. you can take it camping. it really is an amazing innovation
oh boy, another CA is literally the worst state in the union and everyone living there deserves to die thread

There is a certain type of person that makes up around 1/3rd of the population that fully believes something's value is equal to it's popularity and nothing else.

>There is a certain type of person that makes up around 1/3rd of the population that fully believes something's value is equal to it's popularity and nothing else.
I believe that as I've experienced people that base a decision on that premise.
>>71396371
In reality they are just the folks who are too dumb or ignorant to evaluate things on their own so they just follow the heard. Better than being a retard who thinks they're smart and starts going against the grain taking risks.
so is there going to be an underground market now?
