    Well to be honest if it was perfectly acceptable it would lose its flavour. Sometimes we just do things we can get away with and that’s the whole charm. Make it commonplace smoke clouds everywhere and it’s just lame

    Legalise weed and suddenly it is not that fun because avoiding the police was the whole half of the charm

    Make illegal to drink water and suddenly everyone is over hydrated

    It’s just such a feeling to do things you technically are forbidden. Some kind of intoxicating drug in itself. I don’t even like incest but it’s so taboo that it becomes extremely hot hence the certain indie game popularity

    We love the forbidden

    Sometimes I even think communist regime coming back wouldn’t be that bad because we could have the pleasure of personal rebellion. Voting is pleasurable and all but it doesn’t pack the same punch.

    I am very jealous of Americans in 2025. Me here, I already live in as perfect country as it gets so it’s hard to find a good thing to protest but you have a prime opportunity over and over from BLM to other things.

    Well one can always annoy Chinese 🇨🇳 gov dogs as they seem to feel a bit too comfortable online lately

      We legalized weed and the thing that changed was the official stats for usage went up due to not worrying about legal ramifications. Not one person here in Canada said they stopped smoking weed because it became legal.

      Stop being a bootlicking dolt.

      You seem like the type whose college-age room is covered in blacklight posters, and tells their younger sibling’s friends about how the Mayans invented cell phones.
