    I’m not so sure

    Cigarettes are not often seen with the same attraction as other drugs

    The draw from younger potential customers is greatly outweighed by far less harmful stuff like weed or even shrooms

      Cigarettes are not often seen with the same attraction as other drugs

      And the best way to change that is by making them illegal.

        For something to be attractive on the black market it’d have to be attractive on its own.

        Cigarettes have abjectly lost that race ever since the campaign of trotting every lung cancer patient able to be found in front of the cameras was normalized.

        Especially when the supposed upshot of it is something you can get for much cheaper and way less dangerously with weed.
