too many people who don’t like their first beer keep drinking until they like it because of shitty social norms that literally get people killed but ok
Yeah they are dead because people forced them to like the taste of beer? What a stupid and infantile attempt at an argument. Alcoholism is a disease with a lot more complex causes than the taste of a single type of alcohol being acquired. Alcoholics don’t get drunk because they like the taste, they do it because they have an addiction which fills a void, is used to cope or deal with despair.
Now tell me, do you think your friends who tragically passed from addiction and disease and despair would appreciate being used by you as a bludgeon to win unrelated pointless online arguments? Don’t you think you are being wildly disrespectful and out of line?
They died of “the taste of beer which they forced themselves to like”? Or maybe you are being really fucking disrespectful to them by misusing their memories this way.
Sure, and if we normalise not snorting things you don’t like the smell of people would do less cocaine!
Or maybe that’s not how substance abuse works. As someone in treatment for addiction who forced my DOC into me to the point of serious pain… You’re being ridiculous. Alcohol is a drug. People who drink to excess are not, as a rule, concerned with how their drinks taste. If someone is drinking A Lot, they don’t give half a shit how it tastes. “Acquired taste” isn’t the problem here. Someone realising after multiple tastings that actually blue cheese tastes good has less than nothing to do with people drinking to excess.
Beer is good, this is so silly and childish of an outlook. People having personal tastes isn’t a misogynist conspiracy it’s a fact of life

don’t have to be an addict to get blasted underage at a party and get in a car

nah man. peer pressure including that “force yourself to keep drinking it” shit is about as directly responsible as it gets.
Then blame peer pressure, not the concept of an acquired taste. Learning to enjoy something you didn’t like the first time is not the problem here.
or we could normalize not continuing to consume things you don’t like, and then a whole lot of people would drink a lot less
