The real problem with tobacco is that the use of it harms others around the people using it.
I agree banning drugs is not the best option. Education and support is better.
Gas and diesil cars are the other things can think of that are terrible for the health those around them. And they need to be banned asap too. For multiple reasons. But health is definitely one.
How does using it harm others? Unless you’re straight up locked in a room with a chain smoker for a few years it’s about as bad for you as sitting in traffic or near a camp fire.
Education is already working, as a very small portion of western nations smoke now. In the USA it’s less than 9% and that’s for all tobacco users which includes vaping. So cig smokers are probably around %5 at most now. Tobacco is a non-issue and is blinding us from other problems.
they think prohibition works. it never does. History always repeats itself.
don’t waste your time on them.

Agreed. Education is the way to move forward. Banning it just creates more problems and solves none.
