Alcohol has a massive negative impact on society and the only reason its accepted is because of its long standing cultural impact. The world would objectively be a better place if people didn't drink. Say a movement starts sweeping the globe where people are giving up drinking in order to make the world a better place. Would you be willing to jump on the band wagon?

Nah. Just if people didn't abuse it.

So we just have to convince everyone to drink responsibly. Let me know how that's working.

Would be easier than trying to convince the whole world to give it up entirely. But neither would ever happen anyway

But isn't jumping on the wagon when you start drinking again?

No, if your scenario played out it would be easier to get rare bourbons so I would probably drink more.

Do rarer bourbons have different subjective effects during the high they give you?

Throw in recreational weed, cigarettes, and drugs and now we're talking.

I already don't do any of these so it's an easy yes for me.

Theoretically these should be even easier. The only reason smoking is still around is just stubborn morons and kids.

I already don't consume alcohol and feel like it causes far more harm to society than help, so that's an easy decision.

I can't drink, but I won't tell other people of drinking age not to drink. Besides, history showed us how well the prohibition era worked out.

Not to mention that humanity has far worse problems as a rough whole then drinking.

Prohibition didn't work anyway because alcohol was still around. In this hypothetical situation, it would presumably simply cease to exist. People could get as butthurt as they wanted about it and it wouldn't change anything.

Either I can drink beer occasionally or they stop drug testing for weed unilaterally in my career field. Which in my industry may literally never happen, since drug testing in of itself is a completely separate issue from the substance being legalized.

Id give up booze (liquor) though, no problem. Dont really care.

If I had more control over myself there are a lot of things I would do. But then I would be a psychological fascist.
