    Cigarettes are sufficiently regulated that the industry was going to die. No outright ban was necessary.

    That is no longer the case, directly thanks to this shit. Like if Philip Morris started selling nicotine patches as a brand new drug.

    “The science is clear” only means, vaping beats smoking. A fact absolutely no-one questions. But vaping is worse than not vaping. The lesser-evil argument only works when there’s no third option. Like “neither.”

    Serving the same purpose as smoking, while being less dangerous, is great… compared to smoking.

    But the purpose of smoking fucking blows.

      But this fact also absolutely no-one questions.

      And are you saying that somehow coping is regulated less??
