    it was in reference to the point that this is not new. yes

    What point?

    you are correct in that it is not a direct source

    Or a source at all.

    but instead i took it as a chance to recommend one of my favorite books

    Oh…

    “Calvin and Hobbes” - Bill Watterson

    Am I doing it right?

      Fuck off. Comparing the impeccably-researched work of one of the most famous reporters in history, based on his own firsthand experiences in the meatpacking plants and interviewing the workers thereof… To fucking Calvin and Hobbes? That’s the most brain-dead take I’ve seen today, and I’ve been arguing with a guy who thinks it’s reasonable to expect every member of the human race to innately understand how a mind-altering drug will affect them before taking it, solely because people have been using it for thousands of years.

        Maybe direct your overly aggressive anger at him then?

        I made no comparison. I took the opportunity to recommend one of my favorite books in return.

        Now I am sorry you misunderstood, but I personally find your language and communication style to be abusive, so I am going to block you.

        I hope you have a pleasant morning/day/evening.
