I find it interesting that experts in addiction then pivoted and turned that to how to exploit people’s tendencies in food addiction. And then killed millions more people through heart disease, cancer, obesity that they couldn’t reach via cigarettes.
I see parallels to social media and tech giants now also. They know how to make the rat hit the lever and get that dopamine hit to the brain. The rat’s health be damned and the free market will not fix it.
- Nasrudith 3y agoI've seen the opposite where ironically going after Big Tobacco left trial lawyers with an addiction to crusading and looking for the next witch to hunt regardless of guilt via downright speculative lawsuits. Look at the cell phones cause cancer pursuit which many desperately wished to be true when the correlation is that cancer causes cellphones.
