minus-squareCharlotteRain@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6arrow-down4·1 year agoOk but there is no reason to have a nicotine and caffeine addiction.
minus-squareSupraMario@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down4·1 year agoYes, there’s no reason to enjoy life…lol I smoke cigars/pipe tobacco, but I don’t drink or have caffeine, it’s a vice and it makes my life better. If you want to save people, get them to stop eating and being morbidly obese…it’s the #1 killer in the USA now.
minus-squareCharlotteRain@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoI fully agree that people should stop eating the way they do. Again, that doesn’t make one thing more or less healthy. To frame your argument in another example: is ok to drive without a seatbelt if you aren’t going over the speed limit. The issue isn’t that driving without a seatbelt is only unsafe while speed. They are both safety issues independent from each other.
