I smoked for 20 years, gave up 5 years ago, but I still don't agree with the bullshit pressure against smokers. I started smoking when it was legal at 16, now they are trying to ban sales in supermarkets and ban from smoking anywhere, even in private homes. Fuck this shit.

Guess who is behind it: https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/tobacco

The bastards. Why can we not simply die quietly, with a damn good Cuban cigar?

They are quick to apply epidemiology to tobacco, I wonder if they would so readily apply the same to their beloved prescription meds.

They've been at it since the 70s and its been very successful. I remember ashtrays in planes and supermarkets, now people are trained to be repulsed by the smell. You'll never see the kind of histrionics over say, campfire smoke, as you do with a person lighting up.

We're just peons polluting the elite's world in their eyes. They can still smoke I'm sure. Tobacco will become as vogue as cocaine.

It's bizarre. The same organisations have no interest in saving lives by making things like insulin a reasonably affordable price for American citizens, something which is literally free in much of Europe, and yet they target smokers. Cheap shot, blame the smokers for healthcare system issues, not the system itself.

The kinds of people that are in those government jobs are literally the enemy of the rest of humanity. These are the people who thrive on interfering in what other people want to do that is why they gravitate to those jobs that allow them to do that.

I want to rape them in front of their children (in Virtual Villagers).

Whether or not to adhere to these smoking rules is everyone's business. But I prefer order in these matters and barcelonaweedmap helps me with this. The map has become a pleasant discovery for me and thanks to this I can find places intended for this.
