the issue with tobacco is primarily its most prevalent consumption method.
Nicotine is of course addictive but it’s not a particular dangerous and potential has some positive effects. Not that different to caffeine.
- nashashmi 3y agoPoint isn’t about whether tobacco can be consumed in other forms. Point is that when there is an industry that revolves around the consumption of an item that industry will try to promote that item, even if it causes harm. Tobacco is one industry. oil is another. In such cases, why would you legalize intoxicants? you would only promote intoxicants that way.

Well a lot of things are.. why don’t we ban sugar, saturated fat, maybe all the things that encourages sedentary behavior? Television, sofas, comfy beds? All illegal. What’s the objective?
