    The fact is, with the world we live in being like it is, why the fuck not smoke? For the chance to live a little further into the distopian hellscape of our impending future? Some reward that is for denying myself something I enjoy.

      COPD fucking sucks, my dude. Living longer isn’t the goal, living comfortably is and being unable to breathe all the time is the worst.

      It’s not a great plan to encourage yourself to smoke while expecting a future society with even worse healthcare

      Even if the world becomes a hellscape do you want to meet your maker choking on bits of your own lungs or breathing normally?

      That is why you shouldn’t smoke. Lung cancer and COPD are not things you want to deal with if you want to do anything remotely physical later in life.

      You would have to be an absolute moron to think smoking only kills you early. That’s not how it works.

      Even if you don’t like the world around you today and aren’t enthusiastic about the future, the way smoking kills you makes your day to day worse until you eventually get a very painful day to day until you eventually give out and die. You are advocating slowly committing both expensive and painful suicide over a 30 year span because you don’t want to live for 40 more years.

        These comments are a good reminder of how dumb many people here are. Good temperature check

          I got a downvote for saying that smoking kills you slowly and eventually painfully. Like, how is that debatable at this point? Am I getting a downvote because I’m not vibing?
