No one talked about restrictions, just common sense. A smart person will always realize that smoking or vaping doesn’t make sense, that there are no positive aspects, that all the qualities they’d like to associate with are idiocy, to give something toxic a positive aspect. An evolved society must bury these trivia.
Hate to break it to you but humanity, or any of its societies, do not qualify as “evolved”. We are still squabbling as petty nation states over the minuscule resources of the planet, all the while we are letting it die of greedy neglect. All of mankind but the select few are toiling away in obscurity, systematically excluded from the fruits of their labor.
Where are you getting “evolved” society?
Evolution is the result, I agree with you that we’re still behind, discussions like this about smoking I think are indicative of how we actually live.
Hyperbole works against your goals, and is a direct driver of teen vaping. There are absolutely positive effects with nicotine, to pretend otherwise is simply ‘Reefer Madness’ for overly panicked sheltered millennials. The primary problem, and thus the messaging, should be that the positives do not outweigh the negatives; and nicotine addiction is incredibly hard to break away from.
An ‘evolved’ society that resorts to pointless, unfounded, unscientific scare tactics to justify government control isn’t an evolved society, it’s the 1920s.
Yes that’s why healthy, long living people don’t drink wine or coffee. Oh wait.
Sure, healthy people drink lots of cups of coffee and bottles of wine every day. Or maybe when they die at 60, nobody cares.
That’s true, actually.
