Comment on I feel like if asbestos was banned today there'd be a huge pro-asbestos movement

My country banned smoking in all public indoor spaces almost 20 years ago. As a smoker at the time I thought it was ridiculous, felt that my rights were being violated and thought it would never last. The quality of life improvement it made is massive. Today I vape rather than smoke but wouldn’t dream of doing either indoors and think it was 100% the right move. Not quite the same thing but if you’ve never lived in a world that doesn’t work a certain way you sometimes can’t imagine that the alternative would be a benefit.
