lol I love the idiotic implication that it's gonna save lives because a bunch of nicotine-addicted people are gonna go "welp guess I'll stop smoking now I can't get menthols" rather than just train themselves to deal with regular cigs to get that hit You're not gonna save Irish alcoholics by banning whiskey and scotch, we'll all just switch to tequila and vodka even if we don't prefer it e: actually didn't they at one point try to ban flavored vape juices? Whatever came of that? fast cars loose anus has issued a correction as of 05:58 on Apr 29, 2022 |

lol they saw a chance to criminalize something that's done by black people more than any other cohort and they jumped at it. it's as simple as that, intentionally criminalizing stuff in such a way to hurt black people specifically.

Banning “some” tobacco instead of all of it means you don’t give a gently caress about the negative health effects of smoking In short: empty whippet box posted:lol they saw a chance to criminalize something that's done by black people more than any other cohort and they jumped at it. it's as simple as that, intentionally criminalizing stuff in such a way to hurt black people specifically. This is exactly the intention behind the ban and its amazing how most people seemingly don’t understand this

Yeah I assume the end result of this is gonna be a bunch of lifehack tiktoks about how if you pop a mint in your mouth before you light up its close enough or somethingThe Joe Man posted:it's worse than that. biden made it illegal to ship ANY nicotine products through the mail through the PACT act, which pretty much shut down the e-cig industry overnight. obama actually started it with making it illegal to ship any cigarette-length tobacco through the mail (so no more buying duty free cartons for cheap or unique brands from wherever you want). and now no menthols, even from a local shop. The way you know they don't actually give a gently caress about stopping people smoking is that their reaction to vaping getting popular was "how do we stop this" instead of "how do we transition as many smokers as possible to this and then deal with vaping later, if at all"

Most pharmacies have blocks of pure camphor and menthol for the rare occasion we need to compound something containing them. Opening the jar containing those blocks/crystals carpet bombs the nearby area with extreme minty smells and opens the sinuses of everyone.

They probably aren't going to criminalize possession, just ban sales of it No black people have ever gotten killed by the police for selling cigarettes, right?

Arent those all funded and produced by the cigarette industry as part of some self-policing awareness measure? I'd ask why not just fine the companies directly and then have people not entangled with the cigarette industry make the ads, but I know the answer would be some variation on the theme of corruption

joepinetree posted:The point is less whether she had an impact and more that the only way to understand why that nothing of a campaign got so much media attention and funding is because people thought she'd stop Bernie. Bloomberg's campaign was so fascinating in its execution. He just ran a poo poo ton of bland 'Trump bad' ads but didn't really touch on the other candidates at all, and his policy positions, when they were mentioned at all, were mostly bland gun stuff. His entire campaign seemed designed to strip out policy differences and make the primary purely about the importance of beating Trump, something 'safe' Biden would be seen as the best bet for in contrast to 'longshot' Bernie. If Warren and Butt were there to sap energy from Bernie, then Bloomberg was there to reorient the race towards fear of Trump and the need for a conservative candidate.

More criminalization, specifically of stuff they are explicitly pointing out is more common in black communities. That's democrats!

If it was a house race the Democrats would be blowing their whole national budget trying to pump up Lamb, even if Fetterman is saying all the right succ mantras. He still has the Bernie bro stink on him so they will never accept him.
