I'm about as anti-smoking as it gets, and whaaaaat the hell is this.

People shouldn't smoke because smokers' lives have worth that they shouldn't let be destroyed at the hands of the tobacco industry, not because it makes them "losers". What the actual fuck is this shit.

    If they are losing their lives by smoking, aren't they losers by definition? ;P

    Says a guy sitting at a computer/on phone and not working out. What a loser

    RDIT: Lemmy mods, this was a rhetorical insult as I was just making a point

    You missed that I was being cheeky I think, but anyway. Both things can be true at the same time, idk what's the point you are making but it isn't disproving my cheeky dumb sentence at all. ¯\(ツ)

    My bad, assumed you meant that in full seriousness. My point was simply that people are not losers just because you do something that's hard not to do. I was a smoker for 8 years. 1.5 years clean.

    Agreed. I was being cheeky on the "losing their life" -> losers, same way someone that dives would be a diver lol.

    Admittedly, everyone is losing their life all the time lol so we are all losers.

    I guess you didn't get the ;P being a 😋

    Maybe they think shaming will be effective

    The only thing I could think of when I read their comment is that they're calling cigarette smokers "losers" while spending their time calling cigarette users "losers" in a meme community on a backwater social media site.

    I laughed; if I smoked, I'd have laughed harder.
