I’m specifically calling out people who downvoted me for saying I don’t like the smell of vapes
I’m honestly with you, I think cigarette and vape sales should be criminalised, smokers are being taken advantage of both by the government and the smoko sellers
where are people gonna buy cigs if you ban them? the black market. who’s gonna go to prison over it? marginalized people. this is already reality in authoritarian countries

ah yes let’s do a prohibition 2.0 because why not. especially when the fascists are in power
This might be hard to believe, but I’m one of the dozens of people who don’t live in the US
regardless of where you’re from, criminalizing drug use leads to people dying. it’s been a fucking disaster in any country it’s been implemented
Where did I ever say I wanted to criminalise drug use?

I said the sale of these items. Not the buying of. Very different prospects you’re assuming I’m lumping into one here
If it’s illegal to sell, how do you buy?
That’s literally a prohibition.
The point is that you’re unable to buy, but you’re not punished for buying. Instead, the seller is punished for selling
It stops the law from punching down on the addicts being taken advantage of (mostly)
