Gambling needs to simply be made illegal
I don’t care what your arguments are gambling needs to be made illegal
I think it’s fair for it to be legal, but only in specific locations and contexts. I think small scale gambling between friends and coworkers is fine. I think well regulated casinos are bad but serve as a deterrent to underground criminal gambling. I think having legal gambling through the internet and on your phone, advertised everywhere is a serious problem.
Prohibition of vices doesn’t work, it just pushes it into organized crime. I want harm reduction more than purity

Yeah I never assume I can convince someone I’m arguing with on the internet. My goal is to convince the readers. Or entertain myself while bored at work
It’s the young and the ignorant who have formed opinions on subjects they don’t understand.
At least a few people learn nuance as they age and gain life experience. It’s far from inevitable, but it does happen.
WesDym@phutatorius By crazy coincidence, I've lived close to Ivy League schools most of my life, meaning I grew up around them. When I was a little past college age myself, I regularly went to an eatery that mainly served those kids. The owner had put up a sign:
"Hey, Kids! Move Out of Your Parents' Home Now, While You Still Know Everything!"
It is exactly true. The often simplistic and unbending certainty of youth is the folly of sincere but naïve ignorance, and lack of experience.
