Any smoker already knows they’re killing themselves. Now it turns out their “filters” are harming us. I can’t even use a plastic straw anymore for fuck’s sake. Why not get rid of the filter?
Any smoker already knows they’re killing themselves
Which is one of many reasons why the vast majority of smokers are trying to quit. I’ve never known anyone who’s become addicted to nicotine who DIDN’T eventually want to stop.
Why not get rid of the filter?
Because it would increase the harm to both smokers and victims of passive tobacco inhalation immensely, which would in turn increase the already outsized strain on healthcare systems around the world, leading to a spiral of compounded misery throughout society.
It would be needlessly cruel while resulting in little to no benefit.
A better solution would be to ban the hundreds of different additives in cigarettes that make them more toxic and addictive than the tobacco itself already is.
That and roll back the bans of flavored e-juice while actively promoting the most effective smoking cessation method, adult vaping.
Refillable ones only, of course. Disposable vapes are an environmental scourge and also generally much less effective than the good ones.
