Alcohol is toxic, carcinogenic garbage and we’d be noticeably better off if everyone voluntarily stopped drinking it.

Anecdotally, this is a position I’ve seen held more often by young people than by boomers. Not sure what the statistics are exactly, but regardless it would be nice to see a cultural shift away from alcohol.

I hold this opinion because I’ve watched family die from alcoholism, and I myself am a recovering alcoholic. It’s a miserable way to go.

I think that’s a more modern opinion. Maybe the religious boomers want tight legal controls on alcohol but the youth today are more into weed than alcohol from my experience.
