  • There are certain things like voting that should have bare minimum entry requirements. (Proof of ID, lack of felony charges)

    IMO, felony charges are another tool of deliberate voter disenfranchisement, since the US justice system is clearly racist and has a shit ton of convictions compared to the EU (most countries, really - the US prison population per capita is one of the highest in the world). Lack of felony charges should probably be a requirement for being elected, but at this point they might start trying to use it for this, too.
















  • The difference (or lack thereof) between a 40 000$ bottle and a 40$ bottle really doesn’t matter for this argument. 40$ whisky clearly tastes different from vodka or 10$ whisky, and if you can’t appreciate that taste that’s fine (as previously mentioned, many long-aged spirits do taste bitter to me), but don’t make it out like people only drink 40$ whisky for reasons of prestige and marketing.

    I don’t like any Johnny Walker, though, peaty whisky isn’t really my thing. We were discussing cask flavors, not smoke/peat flavors, right?
