Vaping is bad for oral health, too. More at CNET
Cookies, Ice Cream, Apple Pie... Bad oral hygiene is the biggie for causing cavities. But blaming tobacco (and now vaping) is a hot new attack angle. What do I see when I look at the guy in the commercial without any front teeth? A hockey player...
But let's pick out one thing and blame it for all the ills in humanity.
I don't vape, never did, but for Pete's sake, this singling out
one of myriad possible factors or contributing factors to attack as being THE factor is just Bull.
All it does is leads to ignoring other factors to the point that real risk assessment isn't possible.
Worked in a Uranium mine and had lung cancer? Musta been the asbestos in your linoleum, or maybe the cigarettes you smoked.
(Who has the deepest pockets/what fits the narrative/what will make Pharma (replacement therapy) and the lawyers (on contingency fees, plus expenses) the most money?)
With all the "science" being thrown at us over Climate Change, and having observed the whole "Tobacco has no medical use" narrative, even as people quitting cigarettes (which were effectively a low dose antidepressant) take even more harmful drugs, I am ever skeptical of those who have built careers for fun and profit over the antitobacco jihad.
I long for the days when they just said they didn't like the smell.
Interesting, though is the de-emphasis on the vape being used to smoke oils containing THC, the whole time that there is the big putsch to legalize recreational pot. Maybe pot might have some 'side effects' that are deleterious to health, too, (ya think??), but gubmint has it's eyes on big tax bucks and control of the Lotus-eating masses. (Recall soma from
Brave New World?)
Think about it. For some,
Brave New World and
1984 were horror stories of hideous futures to be avoided.
Others saw them as epiphanies of a different sort, and kluged them together in their master plans, their goals for the future of humanity.
