Why is tobacco consumption so demonized in the media yet alcohol isn't?
There's always ad campaigns running about the damage of tobacco that make everyone think you'll get lung cancer and lose all your teeth after one pack.
Flavored cigarettes are either illegal or hard to get (only in reservations) because the added flavors might entice kids to buy them, yet you can buy a variety of pre-mixed cocktails in a wide range of flavors in any convenience store..
Smokes come in bland black packages with disgusting pictures showcasing the damage they do and big ass labels that outright tell you smoking will kill you, but alcohol comes in all sorts of flashy containers, particularly pre-mixed cocktails aimed at women and teenagers and the warnings are a small label in the back that say excessive consumption might be bad for you.
Why is one recreational drug stigmatized yet another one equally damaging to the body able to do anything?

just vape, its fun and the only thing i do.

>tfw that nicotine buzz while working

>tfw that nicotine buzz while relaxing

no better feeling.

Menthol? Are you a faggot?

>drink some alcohol
>pretty nice

>smoke a smoke
>die

gee op i wonder why

You're going to learn vapes are really bad for you.

Personally though I really just enjoy cigarettes. I like lighting it, I like that I can't smoke them EVERYWHERE. I like feeling that first puff of smoke in my lungs. I love a cigarette after a big meal.

because alcohol is a more powerful demon than tobacco obviously... not always good things are in the throne, it's like always is the opposite thing, the more evil the more high status

desu, i personally buy into the rumor that the tobacco industry is one of the few industries still firmly in the hands of wasps and that the jews have been attempting to bankrupt them for decades so they can worm their way in

I don't have any evidence for it nor have I ever researched it but it's just one of those rumors you almost reflexively believe

smoking is 1000x more addicting

Wtf is wrong with her upper lip.
They're supposed to have 3 muscles, not 0.

This may be true, but alcohol is very addicting as well. The difference is, alcohol will kill you just as fast when your hooked, but it also destroys the life around you.
t. former alcoholic non-smoker

The reason is because smoking tobacco is always bad for your health, whereas small amounts of alcohol are not. It isn't difficult for someone to have a beer after work everyday and maybe a few per evening on the weekends without becoming an alcoholic. Try smoking a few cigarettes everyday, and the number you smoke will gradually rise and before you know it you'll be a pack a day smoker and won't be able to go a day without a cigarette. There are some people who can smoke when they want only, but typically they only smoke socially and never light up while they're at home.

smoking kills way more people than alcohol. lrn2stats

perhaps

I think people underestimate the appeal of the smoke and the ritual of lighting a cigarette. I can't smoke them anymore because family has a history of lung issues but god I miss that first puff of smoke.

>smells great people comment on how nice the flavor must be
>lungs feel fine after
>has clean fresh feeling
>mixture of 3 types of molecule as opposed to 4,100

Cigars are for the white man

Because nicotine increases testosterone levels, while alcohol increases estrogen levels. You can do your research.

>Notice that is a kike the one who made the connection.
>Enough red pills for today.

it's this just too lazy to post it. held by old family and duponts, all christians

Alcohol consumption in the past wasn't as much as it is now.

i disagree with how people demonize tobacco so much, but i think one of the main reasons is because the smoke 'harms' other people around the person instantly and has what people think nasty aroma. even though there is plenty of independent research that concludes the amount of 'SECOND HAND SMOKE!!!!!!!!!!!' that goes into someone else's lung is infinitesimal.
and then we have stupid posts like that over dramatize these things. you can have some alcohol and be fine and you can have a smoke and you'll be fine. both are toxic to the body, both have addictive side effects. nevermind that you can have "some" alcohol, attempt to drive home and get into a fatal car accident. i've never heard that happening with someone having a smoke.
But at least you don't smell like a smoker!

Cigarettes will fucking wreck your respiratory system while a glass of red wine is actually healthy for you.

I have no proof to back it up, but I have heard as an argument, there was less alcohol in the past. The content % was much lower than now. Which we all know how quick alcohol tolerance builds up, this could be a viable reason as to why it's so bad now. Everytime you hear a past figure drinking liqour, they were either massive alcoholics or just drink it on occasion. Now you have kids drinking it everyday for fun. No idea why that is though

because tobacco is a white mans industry, for the most part.

Hedonism and wealth are at an all time high

>NO DRUGS
>NO CIGARETTES
>NO ALCOHOL

HOW SIMPLE IS IT?

>forget to brush my teeth in the morning, no problem just vape some mint juice and im good

>why don't they demonize alcohol

Didn't burgers try that already and it ended up with 2 years of gang warfare and a massive waste of police time and resources?

First things first, I know you are Canadian based on your Cigarette Package depictions. Secondly, many see the powered elite as an unstoppable force. It is instead the for now immovable object. When a member of the pantheon spills their spaghetti, they slough them off like ice off a glacier. Each part of the pyramid need to be attacked and forced to double down like the tobacco retards.

booze subdues the masses so they dont storm the government or king thats why england had so maney pubs the king promoted them so the people wouldnt storm the castle, bread and circus, plebs are too fucking stupid and are nothing more then dumb cattle to be fleeced

Because smoking is a shit tier faggot recreational drug that makes you fucking REEK.
inb4 BUT MUH DIRTY ALCOHOLICS

Alcohol in moderation is fine and normal. You won't fucking stink. It doesn't ruin the area around you so much they need to build a separate area it's acceptable to drink in.
There is no smoking in moderation. One fucking cigarette instantly makes any enclosed space disgusting and ruins your breath.

The Tobacco industry was run by Republicans until the Clinton administration DOJ fucked them up. What is legal/illegal often comes down to which businesses donated to which parties and whether those bets paid off with election victories. Here is an example:

>Tobacco companies donate tons of money to Republicans.
>Whoops, Democrat beat my candidate, now they run the DOJ.
>Uh oh, a company that donates to Democrats created a product that can be used as an alternative to smoking, e.g. Nicorette.
>Dem DOJ sues tobacco companies into oblivion, their stocks crash and they can't donate as much money to Republicans
>Nicorette sales and stocks soar, company donates more to Democrats.
And that's how it goes.

Smoking decreases estrogen and increases testosterone. If you dont chainsmoke 2 packs a day smoking actually hardens your body against chemical and biological agents.

Drinking - Decreases testosterone and increases estrogen. Gives you bitch tits. Makes you weaker in every single way.

Same reason why steroids are nearly impossible to get but you can get SSRI just by whining to your psych that you feel sad. Certain (((interests))) want you weak, lazy and unmotivated because then you will be easy to manipulate and control.

Money.

This is not tobacco, but the nicotine it contains. Smoking tobacco is only a means to the nicotine.

If you see menthol packs on the ground in the US, it means that there are niggers nearby. Newports. Newports, Kools, and Salems are for niggers. Niggers love the cool minty taste of menthol cigarettes.

>cigarettes rot your lungs
>vapes drench them in sticky fluid
Why not just take nicotine pills or patches? The actual nicotine is relatively safe and not linked to cancer or death as far as I know. Alcohol itself causes liver cancer, but it's the other easily removable shit in the tobacco plant and the filters and shit that cause lung cancer, right? Just seems logical to give up alcohol and take nicotine patches instead. Redpill me on this.

Smoking kills your dick. I'm Penis obsessed. You do the math you fucking idiot conservative dumbfuck retard

nicotine is amazing for thinking. I vape, and theres nothing better than vaping some high nicotine liquid before doing anything that requires high level abstract thinking. fucking great

except you're wrong.

those flavors are comprised of hundreds to THOUSANDS of "molecules" that are made in a lab to produce those flavors.

they literally re-synthesize a molecule found in puke for some flavors.

>, alcohol will kill you just as fast when your hooked
no, it will kill you much much much sooner

you fucking faggot

For years, they insinuated that nicotine was a carcinogen. Now they say there is insufficient evidence, but they say that it might be promote tumor growth. I have seen it described as neuroprotectant (possible correlation in studies with decreased risk of dementia, including Alzheimer's dementia), and both an inflammatory and anti-inflammatory agent. Science has yet to give us any definitive answers about what a lot of these alkaloid's effects are on the body. I like its stimulating effect so I sometimes use nicotine lozenges, though I never smoked.

what is the 3rd image supposed to be? im not seeing it

Yeah I'll quit eventually but right now I like it too much lol.

Fuck knows lad, i lifted it off some spic conspiracy site. Its pic 2 I was looking to show for illustritive purposes because years back I remember some lads at school showing me that marlboro had three K's on the packet and the logo read "orobl jew" when inverted.

So you’re admitting you’re gay?

It's 2 sets of feet, one of a man hanging, presumably a dark skinned man who was caught looking at a white girl

THICCCC BRYAN

It's supposed to be the short legs of a Jew being hanged, and the long legs of a coon being hanged.

thats a stretch but gave me a kek

Finally quit 3 days ago, I feel amazing.

>I love a cigarette after a big meal.

hol up is this real?

Yes, and it’s beautiful.

Alchohol is feminizing.
Tobacco inhibits the conversion of tesosterone into estrogen.
Weed is feminizing.

Pretty simple if you know biochemistry.

>3 days ago

You'll be back

That explains why craft beer guzzling gaymers all act like soy boys.

Jews have moved on and the money is in illegal drugs and alcohol.

Kek. Based orobljew

Tobacco doesn't make you a docile slave. They'd rather have you hooked on weed.

>Why is tobacco consumption so demonized in the media yet alcohol isn't?
Because there are more non-smoking alcohol drinking politicians than there are non-drinking smoking politicians.

Unironically this. Anything is bad if you overdo it, but the fact is that tobacco is actually good for you. Especially good for your brain. There's a reason why in old movies they always show the men who run the show as smoking cigarettes and cigars. Only dilettantes were historically opposed to smoking

I may have a cigarette at a party or something, but not completely.It's pretty hard to body build when you can't breathe.Believe me, I was a chain smoker.

because smoking raises tesosterone and fights alzheimer's and dementia.

They don't want people staying woke in their old age and redpilling the youth.

Vape shops will sell you unflavored eliquid that only has nicotine and vegetable glycerin.

rare flag??

This

Ok Sup Forums, be honest here: what's the best way to quit? It's cold turkey, isn't it? That's what the majority of people that I know who actually managed to quit have been telling me.

But how would you make that easier for yourself once you finally get that craving? Chug water? Chew bubblegum? Is there a surefire way of going about this?

Last time I've tried, by the end of the second or third day (can't even remember now) I was a mental wreck, everything was pissing me off and I was being a dickhead to the people closest to me for no fucking reason whatsoever.

I've always enjoyed cigarettes, but at this point it's getting ridiculous, I've been smoking for about fifteen years with no end in sight.

I've tried e-cigs before too, but as opposed to cutting down on my habits I ended up vaping fucking everywhere, constantly. I'd wager that I was actually putting more nicotine in my system than with cigs, so while I didn't have to mess with carcinogenic substances etc., I was tired all the time.

Patches made me nauseous, I actually vomited from them once. Also got some weird fucking rash, so I wouldn't want to take that route again.

What do anons? The negative health effects are one thing, but this shit is getting way too expensive, I could buy myself so much cool stuff or travel more if I'd only manage to fight this addiction, it's unreal.

Mind you, if you want to keep smoking, go for it, ideally I'd like to be in a position where you can blow smoke straight in my face and it doesn't bother me in the slightest.

Tips/hints please?

...

>Why is tobacco consumption so demonized in the media yet alcohol isn't?
Because there's no such thing as second hand drinking, unless a pregnant woman is consuming the alcohol. Cigarette smoke is airborne, and everyone around you inhales it. I smoke but I do it outside and away from my family and my pets because I understand the dangers of it.

M...mommy?

>chaos star tattooed on wrist

literally cancer stick

>vapes bad for you
It couldn't be worse then booze and it's well know it's far less dangerous then tobacco

It was pretty shocking for me to find out that people who drink occasionally have higher rates of mouth / throat / tongue cancer than people who use dipping / chewing tobacco on a daily basis.

I'm from the south where every other guy fucking dips, and I've yet to see anyone who has actually gotten cancer from it.

Soy detected

I think a big factor is that alcohol is a trivial part of many cultures and rituals. Like Vodka for Russians or Beer for Germans

>I've tried e-cigs before too, but as opposed to cutting down on my habits I ended up vaping fucking everywhere, constantly. I'd wager that I was actually putting more nicotine in my system than with cigs

You were vaping more because you were getting less nicotine, thus leaving you feeling unsatisfied. Using cigarettes, the nicotine is absorbed directly into the lungs. With vaping, it is absorbed in the mouth / nostrils which is less potent and slower. That's why it's recommended for you to start vaping with a HIGH nicotine content when quitting smoking / dipping so that you get your nicotine fix and start associating your e-cig with that feeling. Then once you stop craving cigs / dip (it doesn't take long. I was able to put cigs down the day I started vaping because I used a high nicotine juice at first) you can gradually lower the nicotine content.

The rule of thumb is to vape as much as you fucking want to until you stop craving tobacco. I was chain vaping the entire first week until I no longer desired cigs.

Quitting cold turkey is a lot more difficult because you'll actually be facing nicotine withdrawl which is worst than a fucking hangover imo. Everyone I know who is a former smoker and now vaper was able to quit cigs as soon as they got into vaping.

>Patches made me nauseous, I actually vomited from them once
Your patches were too strong. 21mg is ~ 21 cigarettes per day worth of nicotine. Cut one in half maybe.

Australian doctors dont believe in adult adhd which forces me to consume nicotine either that or remain a dysfunctional retard. Nicotine calms me to the point of being functional

Me too, try some caffeine instead though. Works the same for me, just try to lighten up at the end of the day because it still gives me a hard time sleeping if I drink any after about 3pm

>Australian doctors dont believe in adult adhd
kek. Yes they do, I was diagnosed when I went to the shrink at 23 for entirely unrelated reasons.
That said, modafinil+nicotine seems better for me than speed. When I took dex I would get scattered and irritable in the afternoon as it wore off.

lawsuits..
basically if you bitch loud enough you can make a dent in western civilization
yet in the west they are spreading islam.
baka

Well you must live in a bigger city i live in a fairly small town and both doctors ive seen told me adhd goes away in adulthood

You sound like a massive faggot.

Psychiatrists or GPs? Get a referral to a psychiatrist who specialises in ADHD. If that involves travelling to the city then you can have them approve certain GPs to prescribe on their behalf so you don't have to travel often.
The only thing about diagnosis as an adult is which drugs are available on PBS. You can't get Ritalin or Vyvanse, only dexamphetamine. Frankly this is a bonus if you like getting high, but the peaks and crashes were annoying to me using it therapeutically.

Accept the fact that quitting will make you uncomfortable. Know the reasons you choose to quit and write them on a paper you can slip behind the cellophane wrapper of a pack. Carry that pack, know you can smoke if you choose, but choose to quit. The nicotine withdrawls only last 24 hours or so. Man up and do it if you want.

Smoking raises test, beer raises est.

I like that her penis has gotten bigger and thicker too. Makes for good fapping.

The top third of sleeping-pill users had a 5.3-fold higher death risk. They also had a 35% higher risk of cancer, the study found. "We are not certain. But it looks like sleeping pills could be as risky as smoking cigarettes.”

I'm not seeing a difference between the trannies. Is the Nurgle one just fatter? like is that it?

Sounds really damn complicated and im 500km from a psychiatrist
