TheOneWithTheHairthe FDA is considering a ban on menthol cigarette sales
maajIf you only ban the menthols, it’s racist. If you ban all cigarettes, it’s health-forward and progressive. Ban all cigs.
seathruOr, how about we let people put whatever they want into their own body?
I’d be with you if second and third hand smoke wasn’t a thing. And also if I didn’t just kick nicotine a month back for causing severe pain in my hands and wrists.
gibmiserWtf is 3rd hand smoke?
The theory that when you smoke, the nicotine binds to surfaces the smoke touches, causing cancer to anyone who comes near surfaces that nicotine has touched.
It was a "truth" run around in the 80s as we were discovering the nature of radiation, so lots of war on drug "research" papers got published functionally saying nicotine and radiation are the same thing.
CatoblepasI mean, nicotine does saturate things when you smoke in an enclosed area. It’s impossible to paint over the stained walls of a smoker’s house without chemically stripping them first, because all the accumulated tar will just seep through the paint and leave brown stains. There’s no way that shit’s healthy.
You mistake the word "nicotine" for the word "tar".
2 wildly different concepts.
Are you suggesting that tar doesn’t contain nicotine or other harmful substances found in cigarettes? Because lol.
That’s okay though, I’m sure you are very special and immune to it.
