Why is alcohol so good for you?

It triggers puritans and social media gurus like garlic triggers vampires and poos.

Keeps you docile and ignorant, so there’s no reason for your overlords to strike you down

Is there any revolution in human history that wasn't fueled by alcohol?

I’m 99% convinced that taking up a moderate drinking habit (glass of whisky neat twice a week) cured me of debilitating digestive issues that had been terrorizing me for years … I have no clue how that makes sense scientifically but i can’t deny it

Science describes universal averages. If your family all lives past 100 because they eat the cat eat eat the cat, then you should, too, no matter what science describes. If your family all dies before 50 and they and all eat the cat eat eat the cat, then you should try universal science instead.

Probably depends on your ancestry. My paternal line is British/Scottish and maternal is Swiss and family gatherings we can drink all day without incident or anyone getting sick or blacking out. I've seen Mexican gatherings turn to shit in a few hours. If I don't have a drink for a few weeks the first sip is super delicious, like my body recognizes it and gives me dopamine. I imagine the sterilizing effects of ethanol on water gave a selectional advantage to who could consume it without issue. It's also a social lubricant, and may have affected courtship.
