Stoner Societies vs Alcoholic Societies

Perhaps you’ve seen the meme pictured above. The image depicts two opposing societies. One is technologically advanced, and the other is technologically primitive. The technologically advanced society is marked “Alcoholic Societies” and the other “Stoner Societies.” Overall, the image wants to encourage you to believe that alcoholic societies are better than stoner societies. There is no doubt that alcohol is most strongly associated with the West, and the West is the most technologically advanced. Together with the idea that a society’s choice of drugs plays a role in determining how civilizations evolve, you will probably conclude that alcohol may be linked to technological advancement. If you’re a technophile, you might think alcohol is the superior drug. <a href="https://medium.com/@aliensurreal/stoner-societies-vs-alcoholic-societies-608a0f0fbfa1">Website</a>
