Not just the media, either. Same "what else are they telling us" questioning applies to the medical and "public health" professions, and alleged not-for-profits such as ALA, ACS, etc. They are *all* doing irreparable damage to their credibility.
Never meant to imply it was. I wasn't clear enough; sorry!
Lately, I'm finding it *very* tempting to crawl into that bubble. Not because I don't want to think it may happen, but because the avalanche of ANTZ PR is becoming overwhelming. But I refuse to let myself. Sometimes it's enough to...
Yes, it is depressing. I was so depressed reading OP yesterday I had to log off and take a serious mental health break (in my case, this involves vaping, jigsaw puzzles and purring cats).
But it's also reality. I (and I hope others) cannot and will not stop reading, staying informed, acting...
The authors of S6939 present, as justification for this law, the following:
While it's good to know our legislators read newspapers (indeed it's good to know that at least some of them know how to read), I ask you, is this the new legislative process: "I read it in the newspaper so let's pass...
It's obvious that as far as the media and ANTZ and "public health" are concerned, facts are irrelevant. To the vast majority of readers, the healine is the message. Nicotine = poison. And the damage is done.
We can only, we must, call them out at every opportunity and expose the lies. Not...
You had to use the B word, didn't you?! :laugh:
Oh wait! Is *this* where the ANTZ got their "bubblegum flavoring is automatically marketing to kids" meme?
Well now you've got me all excited about this up-and-coming website!!!
FYI, you can subscribe to it for updates: Vaping.com and follow it on twitter: https://twitter.com/vapingdotcom
But no pressure... :)
Don't be alarmed. Evidently Procter & Gamble -- and relevant public health authorities -- are confident that parents are responsible enough to prevent their children from abusing flavored toothpaste.
:facepalm:
Good find, rothenbj. Interesting that the headline for this article is "Crest Makes a “Be” Line for Millennial Wallets." As I understand the term, millenials are people now in their (roughly) twenties. Not children, surely. So Mint Chocolate Trek toothpaste is clearly marketed to adults, whereas...
Check out the EU Legislation forum for info on the current Tobacco Products Directive, which would prohibit all tanks over (if memory serves) 2ml and all e-liquid "containers" that are not leakproof, etc.
By chipping away at what devices and e-liquids are available, where/how they can be...
I guess I can't blame them for putting the best possible spin on the situation:
But c'mon, the fact that "conclusion" was reached for the majority of those SE reports by applicants withdrawing them doesn't say anything praiseworthy about FDA.
Math isn't my strong point, but here's how I read...
This blog post comes straight out of the ANTZ playbook. There are so many lies and misrepresentations, it is impossible to address them all in one comment. I hope others will chime in and correct some of the ones I didn't!
I posted the following comment, which is "awating moderation."...
Such a rational and obvious conclusion! Are the media so brainwashed by ANTZ propaganda that this idea eludes them? Do people reading the "ecigs are poisoning our children" articles come to the same rational conclusion, or are they brainwashed too?
