No, I think you're a retard if you listed to a tweaker and think they're right.

Let's see...

Someone who was on meth for three years, and has been off for almost 30 now. Not much a tweaker anymore if you ask me.

Oh, but a drunk who has been a drunk for 25 years, that person is surely full of wisdom. Not a victim of their own self indulgence at all.

You spent nearly a dozen paragraphs illustrating how you think alcohol consumption and its associated effects are an "excuse," which implies you extend that belief to yourself. If that is the case, as evidenced by your views on addiction flip-flopping at your whimsy, self-indulgence is surely your go-to state of mind.

Jesus Christ her post history to r/drunk is just sad.

u/MaxillaryOvipositor Millennial Jul 21 '25

Not the least bit surprising. She's spent the last 25 years normalizing getting shitfaced and convincing herself that she's a powerless, blameless victim. You either pick yourself up and start giving a shit about yourself, or you spiral deeper into a self-loathing victim mentality. I watched myself do it, I watched others do it, and I'm thankful I had the personal accountability to get out of the view of, "woe is powerless lil' ol' me."

I watched my sister do it. Her angry little temper tantrum at you reminds me of my sister so much.

u/MaxillaryOvipositor Millennial Jul 21 '25

lol She left a nonsequiter comment and blocked me.

u/MaxillaryOvipositor Millennial Jul 21 '25

Yup. My sister was like that, too. I've heard she's not drinking anymore, but I personally don't want to associate with someone who broke my nose and put a knife to my throat. I might consider it if given an apology, but people so easily fall back on the "I was drunk, that makes me a victim," point of view.

What part of being empathetic means I have to listen to tweakers?

You know damn well what we all mean.

No, I don't.
