You’re right, far, far more polite and they actually sound intelligent and put across an educated argument.

It was 1981 when the MP George Foulkes drafted a bill which would ban Space Invaders on the grounds og it being too addictive and causing deviancy. Evidently there were plenty of "gaming kids" back then too.

Cannabis is still a problem regardless of whether it gets legalised or prescribed, it still effects lives negatively.. even more so the stuff these days because it's so strong

Their “doctor” expert was kinda useless. And you saw how he pushed back when the audience gave feedback? Yeah that wouldn’t stand today, and it didn’t back then, either. It’s really amazing to see how important the context and dynamics of discussion are, no matter the subject. I think we have a lot more contextual awareness nowadays, and awareness of biases of “experts,” media, and so on. But we’re still not coming to understanding. Any side will just fight to defend its position no matter what. I wonder when that will change?
