What an insensitive and utterly vile post. If you understood anything about addiction, which I'll remind you is a health disorder and not a personal choice, you would be ashamed of yourself. Some of us and our families are really struggling with huge impacts to physical and mental health, our entire lives, from addictions like this. Hope posting this made you feel better about yourself tho 👍
- Mental inconvenience takes a number of forms, one of them is nicotine addiction. Some people with more standard brains than you and I can't comprehend why we would regularly consume literal poison to feel better instead of, I don't know, watching a Disney film or running until they sweat and smell.
  I have switched over to a vape and mix my own flavorless, scentless juice. I still feel like a pariah when I use it, and stick to alleys and back lots.
  I truly wish vape culture hadn't had that bro moment of douche bags chucking clouds in theaters and making a fuss when imbibing indoors.
  I'd be slightly less embarrassed of the pile of addictions I've become.
- It’s alright they never had to suffer from the utter brainwash advertising we had. They are brainwashed the other way. It’s probably a good thing. World used to be a smoke cloud.
- It's always a .ml account
- What does smoking a cigarette here or there has to do with addiction?
  Cigarettes aren't the only way you can get addicted, you know. You made the connection between cigarettes and addictions, here in this post.
  Also wouldn't it be the best advice against addiction find the will in oneself to stop doing it? If addicted smokers know what their cigarettes do for themselves and others, then they might want to try search for help, to get them off their addiction?

  Where did I or the original post mention anything about occasional smokers? This post is offensive to those struggling from lifelong addiction to cigarettes, which is almost never a choice.

  Gee, that's such great advice! Why didn't the lifelong addict think of that one themselves? You just singlehandedly solved addiction.
  Noone chooses being addicted to cigarettes. It's a mental health disorder just like being addicted to fentanyl or heroin, and a crippling one at that for some. Please educate yourself about what addiction is before defending posts like this. What you are doing is similar to shitting on people for "choosing" their sexuality or gender.

  They mention cigarettes, and their bad affects on the people using them and the people around that. Stating that they are bad should not be offensive, because that is stating the facts.
  If they are offended by that... IDK. That is something they have to work through themselves.

  You are misrepresenting what I said. I said that to get over an addiction you first have to want it. And you say: Just wanting to stop is not enough, and I agree.

  True, however people don't just wake up one day and be addicted. They have to take it first (willingly or unwillingly), putting a social stigma on the act of using these addictive substances, can at least prevent some people of getting accidentally addicted.
  So I would be in favor of supporting people getting out of their addiction, while preventing people to get addicted, by showing what is bad about these drugs and trying to fight against the social component of "taking them makes you cool".
  What are you fighting for? Finding ways of being offended?
  
  lol I hope you get addicted to some to some ratchet pussy and it ruins your life
