A slab of beer? Also sounds like he needs to be more thrifty and start making bathtub gin like our grandparent's generation.

The actual limit is:

* 2 cases of 24 beers or pre-mixed drinks each
* 12 bottles of wine
* 2 bottles of spirits

Two categories at a time, per person per day. The only way that'll be a problem for you is if you're literally drinking two bottles of whiskey a day, every day.

I've averaged just about 700 mL per day since the lockdown hit, so

That's only about 15 shots per day, not bad, not great.

All criticism is now an ad hominem attack apparently



Also, I wrestled for a long while with the previous guy's high horse of "we should be able to disagree about politics and still get along personally, haha look at Arnold Schwarzenegger and his wife", like that was a signifier of personal maturity or something.

I'm pretty much done with it, since politics are absolutely not just a sports team preference, and anyone who thinks of politics in those terms is at BEST not taking it seriously enough to acknowledge that it literally means life and death for lots of people, and at worst is being a disingenuous monster who just wants to get laid without having to stop being a monster.

I also have a sneaking suspicion that it's mainly conservatives saying you should be able to get along regardless of politics, not liberals.

Conservatives complain about being alienated from their families over politics all the time, and whenever there’s a news story about how liberals won’t be friends with or date them, they use it as proof that libs hate anyone different than them. It definitely occurs on both sides of the aisle.

But with very different characteristics, right? That's kind of the crux of it

Conservatives who won't be friends with liberals do it because they think the liberals are immoral or shrill.

Sure, I’m just saying “we all should be able to get along!” isn’t a liberal or conservative argument, it’s an argument made by people who are too rich for it to matter.

I mean, to an extent. Sometimes I can respect that some people genuinely mean the best for others, but we just disagree about how to get it done, in that regard we can disagree about politics and still get along, because I accept that their heart is in the right place even if their brain isn't.

Definitely this. All those example couples you hear about where they're happily married despite opposed political beliefs (like Kellyanne Conway and her husband the ardent Never-Trumper, for example) are almost always insanely rich, privileged people for whom politics really is a team sport because both teams are ultimately working to benefit the rich, so they can have polite disagreements over whether or not people of colour deserve to live and then go back to enjoying their bipartisan tax cuts. For the rest of us, who see the enormous damage politics wreaks on ordinary communities, it's much harder to get along with people whose political views often boil down to "I wish you were dead".

It seems more 50/50 to me. 50% "wish you were dead" and 50% "I wish for you to give me all your money, then maybe die or get more money to give to me"

You can find people with different politics at all income levels, they just don't get fawning media coverage over how mature they are about it. One of the consistent splits in left/right politics is gender after all.

Lack of political power and agency also makes politics into a luxury for other people to worry about, and the country is full of people just getting by enough that they aren't willing to start fights with family and neighbors they rely on over political issues. If you're seeing less and less tolerance for that stuff, it's because people are getting more desperate and the right has engendered a cult of lunatics who cannot shut the gently caress up about their politics so people cannot ignore it.
