28. My point is The WCTU/Prohibitionists have faded into irrelvance and/or sheer nuttery....
...not because of what they did, but because of their inability to accept that their time had past.

I see it here with the gun Prohibitionists: "If only we had the money that the GOP/NRA had"- while ignoring the inconvenient truth
that their .orgs are at best 3 or 4 percent of the NRA's size.

Now, popularity is no marker of virtue anywhere, especially in politics- but if your opponents are more popular than you are,
FFS at least adjust your tactics to acknowledge it.
