I’m in recovery and ever commercial is “the bold refreshing taste of uncle berry lemon twist vodka. Having a bad day? Drink this. You know you want to. Drink it Michael! please drink responably

Every ad portrays drinking as a party, and your in a pool throwing a beach ball with your friends, and your ex Chrissy finally admits she was wrong. It’s an unrealistically positive. If you drink Tito’s your father in law will finally grow close to you. It’s not Christmas without even Williams egg nog!

There is no safe amount of alcohol to drink. It is like cigarettes, entirely bad for you.

I’m not saying don’t sell it but why is every add for booze being blasted every. Especially to me because the algorithm knows I’m an alcoholic.

How is that legal?

Please drink responsibly? You’re aiming your ads at alcoholics primarily.

It’s like advertising morphine on skid row. You know what you’re doing.

    How do you think I feel when I see the guys in these ads surrounded by beautiful women? It’s like the opposite feeling for me, you’re showing me something that can not happen.
