    Every smoker I’ve met gets very defensive about “why can’t I breathe my toxic fumes on everyone else?? What’s the big deal?? And then they get so mad when I litter like get over yourself”

    Smoking in public is indefensible. There are smoking cessation programs.

      Agreed. Vaping on the other hand is fine and with how many people vape now thankfully not something anyone has any remaining institutional power to enforce a ban on, so glad I can puff on the train in peace now

        I don’t think the fumes from vaping are especially safe or welcome, either. At least there’s no littering, though

            Canadian here. Weed vapes are fine if they use safe ingredients. What you are on about is black market vape juice.

            Edit: the ew weed means all your arguments against it are likely bad faith.

            Edit 2: bro gets corrected ob the saftey of weed and loses his mind using refeer madness li es backing hard drugs as a replacement. You’re cooked dude.

                    Only if you can verify the source. I’ve never heard of someone’s life being ruind because of weed other than legally.

                    Acid can fry your brain with a single dose.

                    Trotting out acid as better than weed is a choice, not a great one though.

        I think you’re confused - seems like you think that a public place is your private space. Public space is a place where people need to consider OTHER people. You just proved OPs point.

        What the fuck is your logic? “I get a right to air, so I will pollute it for you.”
