The United States on Friday released a U.S. intelligence assessment sent to more than 100 countries that found Moscow is using spies, social media and Russian state-run media to erode public faith in the integrity of democratic elections worldwide.
“This is a global phenomenon,” said the assessment. “Our information indicates that senior Russian government officials, including the Kremlin, see value in this type of influence operation and perceive it to be effective.”
A senior State Department official, briefing reporters on condition of anonymity, said that Russia was encouraged to intensify its election influence operations by its success in amplifying disinformation about the 2020 U.S. election and the COVID-19 pandemic.
Alcohol is legal in all 50 states, and people drink it as they please in general. Some states do allow passengers to drink in cars, and some even allow a driver to drink if they are below the DUI limit.
So you have a limited case for your point on that one, that some Americans can’t drink alcohol as freely as others wherever they want to. I can concede that European countries have more freedom to drink alcohol than Americans have. We have a similar situation with cannabis laws, where some Americans have more freedom than others.
I have to say, is that all you’ve got? Some countries have more freedom to get drunk and high. That hasn’t been much of an obstacle for the people I know that get drunk and high all the time though.
