I certainly wasn't taking issue with the fact that alcohol is harmful, only with the idea that viewing it and treating it as disease is any more effective than just shunning and shaming alcoholics. Calling it a disease or a moral failing is just the difference between your friends and family shaming you for free and a therapist doing it for money and telling you you can't help yourself.
This is just part of a comedy routine that's on topic, but it's insightful as well as hilarious.
