That sounds really simplistic?
There are some problems for which banning isn't a solution, but there are some problems for which banning is actually a viable solution. Should we "learn" from the war on drugs and reverse the ban on CFCs? Should we avoid banning toxic substances from food?
You're gonna need a better argument than "activists who want to ban stuff should have learned from the war on drugs". You're gonna need to argue why banning cryptocurrencies is more like banning weed and not like banning CFCs.
