Show Notes

To understand Neo-prohibitionism, we need to understand the premise of their arguments. In this episode we talk about the harm principle, and the implications of self-harm. We also analyse the history of prohibition throughout time and answer the question: is prohibitionism limited to only one culture, or is it a universal fallacy?

We close the episode with a Canadian example of how neo-prohibitionists operate.

Act 1: Do you want to live?

Act 2: Recycling old adages

Act 3: The Method
