Didn't the Dutch coffeeshops ban tobacco and provide herbal analogues for mixing?

Nah that was the result of some law, coffeshop owners fought against it, they got herb mixes instead. (often terrible)

There is a lot of stupidity with the new law, like the ambition to remove a lot of ashtrays from bus stops etc, without puttning up new ones nearby. A lot more butts on the ground about 2 m from the track these days, and fewer in the tray. And if Im at an outdoor serving area I can walk past some barrier and smoke exactly 1 meter from where i previously drank beer, but then Im not allowed to drink the beer since Im on the Street.

Im a smoker but I try to not smoke around people, its like common sense. But the public debate about this is so stupid and really brings out the worst tendencies in people from both sides.

Aren't you also banned from smoking just outside the serving area as well as the entrance?

There is really no meaningful opposition to restricting smoking in Sweden.

And it works; 50% reduction since the ban on indoors smoking in restaurants and bars is an insanely good result.

Ah yes, forcefully demanding and restricting how public space should be used can ofc be effective, it wont stop stupid poo poo from being stupid.

But no one lives in sweden cause they want liberties, we got denmark/germany for that.

I see smokers continue their long tradition of "Lets be as big of a nuisance as is humanly possible. What are they gonna do? make a law about it?" that has served them so well over the past decades.

Very rarely have I seen someone disregard someone asking them to smoke somewhere else.
Of course, most people never actually ask smokers anything, just imply things by clearing their throats and stuff

Then those same people go home and write legislation against public smoking haha

Confront someone? Absolutely not! Easier to look down than to do something.

Seriously, if someone wants me to not smoke somewhere or move from a spot for the love of god ask it’s sincerely not a big deal. I’m already hyper aware of where I do smoke to try and avoid others, or go to a designated spot.

Same for 1919 or 1819.

I mean when our parents said that they didn't know it was bad for your health "back then" we politely nodded, but lets be honest. Everyone always knew that smoking was bad for you. Yeah they bribed the doctors a bunch and spread a ton of propaganda but that didn't fool people into believing that smoking was safe. It just gave smokers some peace of mind to keep smoking, like religion does with death.

But come on. It's smoke, in the lungs. It's like fire and genitals. You don't need a doctor telling you it's bad because everything about the situation screams that "this is bad" a persons first reaction to smoke is bad, smokers have had hacking coughs for centuries and cough up whole tires worth of tar soaked gunk. People who smoke have had throat and breathing issues since forever.

To be fair, "everyone" was smoking when i was a kid. Your average workplace was a smoke filled hell regardless of your personal vices.

Today only tryhards and those stuck in addiction smoke. The propaganda based on role models smoking is no more. Soon enough smokers will be seen as losers.

Bad habits die off eventually; even the aristocracy bathe on the regular these days.

My main issue is the absurd amount of cigarette butts every-loving-where.

There is absolutely no excuse, if you throw a cigarette butt (or any other kind of trash) on the ground, you deserve to rot in hell.

Even a few meters away from a clearly marked trash bin, the ground is littered with cigarette butts. It's insane how smokers somehow think it's ok to just throw that poo poo on the ground.
