I'm straight-edge.

Yeah, not doing drugs or alcohol is one of the brighter things you can do with your life.

If you want to abstain from drugs, great. But you shouldn't use it as a way to look down on others and feel morally superior to them. Especially considering smoking a joint is about as harmful as eating a Big Mac.

I guess it's not a fair comparison since Big Macs are riddled with GMOs, but the point is that smoking weed should be a borderline non-issue. If you overhear that your cousin smoked a bowl last weekend, it shouldn't be some huge topic of gossip that possibly leads to an intervention; it should be like hearing your cousin went to McDonalds or had a beer last weekend. No big deal on it's own, possibly an issue if they're doing it every single day.

Eating a Big Mac is very wrong. Your comparison is like saying murder is only about as harmful as suicide. They both end up in death. If someone eats McDonald's it's a universal truth that you should look down on them.

It's not a big deal if someone does drugs, but I'll definitely make a mental note of that. In the same sense I'll keep a mental note if someone eats at McDonald's. Doing drugs is at the same level of someone being a bit racist. I look down on them and feel a bit unpleasant around them, but I won't confront them about it as long as it doesn't concern me.

You should only look down on someone if they do something morally wrong. Eating a Big Mac only affects themselves, thus it can't be morally good or bad.

Yeah, I shouldn't look down on people who are rude, stupid, and ruin the atmosphere. Nor should I look down on people who eat their own shit for whatever stupid reason, and I definitely shouldn't look down on people who do selfharm in the name of their god.

Oh wait, I definitely should, and you're definitely wrong.

Yeah, exactly. Their body, their choice. You have no business to look down on them.

Ok so the first two sentences were fine, but the third one is inserted out of contex. Why do I have no business looking down on them?

I'm basically straight edge these days. Not out of any moral reason or anything, but simply because of a few logical reasons:

A) They're almost always harmful to your body in some way.
B) They are generally expensive and are a huge waste of money.
C) Some are addictive. The thought of being addicted to a drug terrifies me. Doesn't help that withdrawals from certain drugs can kill you.

So yeah. I don't see the need to make life more enjoyable by blurring the fuck out of it with drugs (plus the fact that I get little enjoyment out of them anyway). But I'm not gonna go all up in peoples faces about it. If you wanna partake in drug usage, that's your call.

I think the whole Straight Edge thing is pretty dumb. It seems the people who consider themselves straight edge have this holier than thou attitude. Its cool if you dont drink or do drugs (hell thats great even) but is it really necessary to label yourself?

Contributing to the meat industry is the biggest point you have here, and that actually makes sense. Otherwise (buying locally sourced meats or the other side of the comparison, buying weed) there's nothing morally bankrupt about it at all, and thus no reason to stick up your nose at others for doing so.
