Right, cuz walking around drunk and serving booze to 13 year olds is a MUCH more respectful way to celebrate Purim. I get it.
I mean, you’re comparing respect for purim to respect for the megilla itself, and the takanas chazal to read it publicly.
You can still make a point that you think getting drunk is disrespectful to the yontiff of purim itself and it’s mitzvos, and we’ll can discuss that. But I don’t think it’s immediately relevant to this.
