  I've been drunk, had a couple of beers and tried pretty much the whole spectrum of alcohol consumption and honestly I've never been a fan. It makes you stupider, less able to control your actions, your emotions and your thoughts. That allows for fights, hooking up randomly which isn't good for anybody and even makes people dependent on it in order to have sex. It basically makes you more like an animal and less like a human. People like it because they don't like being human, it's hard to have fun as a human, much easier to let go of your higher functions and behave on autopilot then blame it on whatever substance they're on for whatever stupid shit they did.

    There was a period of my life where I felt I required it to work, but not to have fun. It was a programming job, but to get the work done I needed to be stupider and behave on autopilot. I do not recommend this. Dark times, and I am thankfully past this. But anyway, I agree with your premise. People do it to subdue their higher order thinking. If you’ve never wished to do this, then you might just be better suited (or better adapted) to your environment.
