A new religion sweeps the land, proclaiming that bartenders are bad and damaging society. Bartenders promote alcoholism, they operate in the seedy underground, they are profiting off slowly poisoning their customers. Bartenders become stigmatized and legally grey; most quit 1/x

"Bartending is obviously bad and damaging. Bartenders are desperate, mentally ill, fucked up on drugs, or criminals. Nobody wants to do that job, you have to be fucked to want to do that. I can't believe you want to normalize bartending when you see the effect it has!"

Like, you're not wrong that bartending has a tougher crowd, but you didn't stop to wonder why that is? How maybe the problem is actually the stigma and underground nature? How you'd get the same effect if you stigmatized other jobs, such as waiters or artists or sex workers?

Okay yes, this is obviously about sex workers. I'm not saying there's no other factors that go into the discussion about sex work, but I'm sick of critics pointing out the "lowlife" nature of sex workers without wondering if maybe they caused that in the first place.
