When you have the larger percentage of people doing a particular thing, what narrative do you think they will hold about such thing? They will generally be relaxed regarding the way they look at the negative effect of engaging in such thing because they are also involved in it.

At soccer centres, people drink alcohol. At clubs and literally everywhere, People drink alcohol and the result of getting drunk always leads to a worse situation that mostly result in death but the stereotype on alcohol isn't as strong as that which is placed on gambling. The reason for this is unclear because the effect of gambling addiction only affects the person that's addicted while for that of drinking of alcohol, it affects not just the person that drinks it but others since a drink can cause harm to anyone and anything around him.

Alcohol is even as addictive as gambling and can also eat one up financially same way gambling addiction can eat one up financially.
