    You have the knowledge in the back of your mind. The warnings make you have it in active thought.

    What kind of manipulative power trip behavior control bullshit logic is this?

    Do you truly believe consumers usually/always make rational and reasonable decisions, that don’t go against their own interests?

    Who the fuck cares? I decide how I live my life. If you want to wear bubble wrap and consume nothing but distilled water and unflavored soy bean paste so you can totally live forever and never need medical treatment, have at.

    I’d rather live.

        I would rather my government spend my tax dollars solving real problems, not creating hoops for companies to jump through so people can ignore them (which is your narrative, in reality, it is intended to stagmatize the product and the people who consume the product and try to shame them into stopping).

          That’s false, these warnings are successful ib preventing people from consuming the drug and therefore directly decreasing healthcare costs for society.

          In fact, some countries pursue it even further, mandating bland packaging for cigarettes. This is especially effective in preventing minors from smoking.

            Sounds like our are adept “ib” being a giant fascist tool who relishes the idea of getting some degenerates to stop drinking an smoking. Like savages.
