Well... Lots of people just don't care about their health. They'll spray oven cleaner all over an oven then stick their head in there. They'll spray pesticides then stay in the room. A while back there was a bunch of people dying from exposure to chemicals back in the day, and I've always been pretty careful with what I breathe in, but a lot of people aren't.

This coming from the same "doctors" and "experts" that are telling people to wear 3 or 4 masks now, when are we going to stop believing or trusting these "experts"?

Notice this little tidbit: " Related: Lung cancer deaths are declining faster than new cases. Advances in treatment are making the difference" - they're scaring the fuck out of everyone to sell tests and treatments, as usual.

My uncle was an old school smoker, smoked for 60+ years, as long as I knew him, FILTERLESS Camels and you know what he died of? OLD AGE.

Some people just get cancer, and some people don't - it isn't fair, but it is what it is.

Same goes for viruses, some will get it and some won't, but wearing a mask or 3-4 masks is still NOT going to stop it. A mask is essentially a chainlink fence compared to a virus.

Do they vape?

[–] • 0 pt

Vaping nicotine has not been linked to lung cancer in any way. Vaping black market THC products that were cut with vitamin E acetate was the cause of the Evali scare last year. Not saying that vaping nicotine is good for you but it is a significantly safer alternative to smoking combustible cigarettes.

Did I make any claim? Or did I ask a question?

I dont smoke or vape so I dont have to deal with any of that BS unless some tool thinks that it's not inconvenient or harmful to others around them

It was implied. It is quite common for people to point the finger at vaping. By asking the question " do they vape"? You were implying that they may have gotten cancer from vaping. Otherwise you would not have asked the question. You dont smoke or vape so i wouldn't expect you to be in the know when it comes to the subject. I wasnt attacking you with my reply. Was just defending vaping as a good means of smoking cessation.
