Why does everyone in the US card everyone over something ostensibly about age? It’s never been about age. I’ve seen a seventy year old man with a foot long white beard get carded and refused, while he was stone cold sober. Do you think he can’t handle his liquor? He’s seventy. He knows what it does.

There’s a lot of bars/restaurants that do. I have literally been refused service because the only ID I had is a passport, and those barcodes wouldn’t scan into their system. It’s Papers, please, and it’s fucking bullshit

I’m 1000% against this age verification bullshit, not only because of the privacy and data reasons, but also because getting carded in a bar or at a store is also bullshit. It Is Papers, please. It’s Never a question of if you’re old enough, it’s a question of “Do I think you’re human enough?” And more often than is reasonable, the answer is no, they don’t think you’re a person, who should be able to spend their money as they like.
