I’m not sure why we’d unanimously be all-about authoritative restriction of natural plantlife. Personally, I think education is more important and people should free to make their own decisions. Cigarette and tobacco use is at an all-time low as-is and they’re no less legal now. People are aware.
Yeah, and, disclaimer, before someone digs, I smoke a pipe. Guiiilty, but our side of the tobacco market was never really at risk to begin with. I can take or leave cigarettes as I won’t do anything you have to inhale, but I’ll defend anyone’s right to them.
this guy probably thinks Coca should be legal
Oh, lmao. I wouldn’t stop there.
All that said, fuck Mitch. His Tobacco involvement is mid-tier evil in his black book. Pick something from the top ten greatest Mitch hits.

That’s precisely what he, and the tobacco industry that was supprting him, was working against. He wasn’t just taking a libertarian stance against regulation. He was arguing against the evidence that smoking tobacco, and second-hand exposure to tobacco smoke, were bad for your health. And the quoted portion of the article also indicates that he pushed to keep tobacco education out of the broader drug education in schools.
Don’t forget that he’s been in Congress for decades, and many of the things that he had been fighting against as a senator are responsible for the general awareness of the dangers of smoking and the record low number of smokers.
Tobacco smokers are caught in addiction that their authoritative dealer has purposely made more addictive and has gaslighted them about the consequences of for decades. Now they are wilting away coughing and wheezing, but still unable to quit that “natural plant life” —with a whole bunch of added chemicals of course.
