Comment on Menthol cigarettes banned and every stick to hold a warning
vividspecter@lemm.ee 5 days agoI can tell you the pictures on pouches do nothing to deter me.
I get your point, but it’s less about people that are already addicted, but reducing the number of new people taking up the habit. And if even a small proportion of smokers quit due to the imagery, that’s still a win in terms of public health outcomes.

Yeah nah no one who’s considering the habit is gonna be put off by the pics.
I’m speaking as someone who smoked for years before finally kicking the habit, quit people consistently get the wrong end of the stick when it comes to the psychology of people who smoke.
