I regularly tell people I absolutely hate that I love them while drunk. It’s how my brain makes sure I don’t tell them to go fuck themselves… I also tell everyone i like, that I love them though…

I was in a long term relationship with someone with a drinking problem. When a drunk person says something to you they fucking mean it. Their filter is weaker and, as I label it “they have the courage to say something that they were afraid to say sober.” When you figure this out everything is easier to understand.

True to an extent but there’s also a level of brain damage that can come with long term alcoholism (or extreme intoxication) where they lose the ability to form coherent thoughts while plastered and their drunk ramblings can be contradictory.

Alcohol makes you feel and act different way. Your statement is not correct

While drunkenness isn’t a blanket excuse for behavior, I don’t believe it’s inherently fair to say we are our true selves while drunk. Alcohol affects our reasoning, it doesn’t merely remove filters.

Not every drunk/alcoholic person is the same. Bummer you had that experience though.
