That is cultural. It’s poison you take to change your mind state and small enough amounts are usually tolerable enough to not cause too much of a problem. I have a drink from time to time but to say otherwise is incorrect.
Ok now put it in context to this conversation. The post said he gained weight after he became sober from “drug abuse”. You said it is unlikely to gain weight when you quit abusing alcohol. So therefore… He was not abusing alcohol but some other drug that has a side effect of weight loss. You’re welcome, now you can continue not using your brain.
Alcohol is not usually considered a drug.

That said, I’m not sure where I said that it was.
You didn’t say it, the meme said it.

Oh I just read them as separate things, that’s all.
A drug is literally any substance one consumes for its effects, rather than for sustenance.
Meth is a drug
Ibuprofen is a drug
Marijuana is a drug
Caffeine is a drug
Ketamine is a drug
Alcohol is a drug
not to forget nicotine…
the amount of rehab places that allow for nicotine is nuts
