Alcohol DOES damage the immune system. It does so through blocking the bodies ability to absorb nutrients from the food you eat which allow it to fight off infection. Also alcohol dries out your tissues and acts as a diuretic and without proper hydration you are more likely to get sick because it disrupts the distribution of substances which protect against infection. Alcohol also causes a disruption of REM sleep so you don't get adequate rest, which leads to stress, which leads to an increased probability that you will get sick. It also causes glutemate rebound which causes the opposite effect of alcohols removal of inhibition, which would be hyperexcitability causing again increased anxiety. Anxiety causes weight gain, lowered immune system, lack of nutrients..etc. Alcohol causes systemic cancers and is also metabolized into acetylaldehyde which is a carcinogen as well.
Why does the nexus get hacked and this site doesn't? This site is terrible. I dont even want to argue it anymore because all you have to do is google search and click on the first link regarding their claims about alcohol and you would probably disprove it with that 1 click.

Alcohol: 100,000+ deaths per year Marijuana: 0 recorded deaths. Ever.
It takes a real fucking idiot to mix up which one is worse.

Tobacco also kills 5 million + people per year worldwide.
Alcohol and Tobacco are legal and kill over 5 million people a year and marijuana is illegal and kills no one per year.
