"Health" parasites gush new idiocy - smoking no more dangerous than stopping at traffic lights

[DrMA]

According to these estimates, stopping at traffic lights kills 7M ppl per year, but WHO claims smoking causes about 6M deaths per year. Thus these buffoons argue smoking no more dangerous than stopping at traffic lights.

How stopping at traffic lights could be slowly killing you: Expert warns they expose us to extra high levels of pollution | Daily Mail Online

Just like with absurd attempts to ban vaping because of pretend "risks", the alternative is far more egregious. Smoking instead of switching to 6000x safer vaping, just like not stopping at a red light in a busy intersection, is almost guaranteed injury or death.

well i'll be honest, vaping has not been proven to not be harmful however I'm pretty sure it's a lot safer than cigarette smoking since it doesn't have those thousands of chemicals etc but who knows the after long term effects of inhaling flavorings and pg/vg but I do feel better knowing that I'm vaping instead of smoking cigs

Stopping at lights these days will more than likely get you a bullet. The least of my worries is tobacco or pollution.

You've been inhaling these flavourings probably for decades already - albeit not in the concentrations used in vaping.

Unless you eat purely organic food fresh off the field you're very likely consuming flavours. Just read the fine print on the packages of almost anything edible.

Your tongue can only differantiate between a few very basic notes, rest of the flavour is actually smelled by receptors in the nasal cavities.
( Thats why things have almost no 'taste' when you got a cold ).

Guess how it gets into the nasal cavities

They kick smokers to the curb, in all weather conditions, hoping they'll increase deaths by influenza, pneumonia, stress, pollution, yet they're still alive and kicking into the next century.

Anti-smoker garbage about smoking deaths is based on deliberate scientific fraud. They falsely blame it for diseases that are really caused by infection. When you endorse their use of fraud against smokers, you endorse fraud against them when they switch as well, so they will falsely blame vaping for diseases that are really caused by infection.

Wouldn't the 7M ppl number include the 6M number? Ergo, smoking kills no one, it's all been based on not looking at what stopping at traffic lights do to a person, some of which happen to be smokers.

Well, if driver population stats mirror the general population, about 20% are smokers in both groups.
