@Adamnogender @ChaunceyGardner @grove_mitchell Do you even read what you type? Twice you have called me “hooked”. When I had a business I switched over 2000 people from cigs, my thoughts were to get them off cigs however. I always told them the path that worked for them was the best path, not my path. Btw. I like nicotine.

@mcherup @ChaunceyGardner @grove_mitchell Which presumptions?

New Study: Nicotine vapes are not as dependence-forming as cigarettes. Who knew? The authors are VERY good scientists, but continue to use the 1990s-era stigmatizing term "addictive." "Addiction among vapers appears to be lower than that observed among smokers." journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/14…

@Adamnogender @ChaunceyGardner @grove_mitchell That’s the second time you have presumed to stigmatized me. Does that make you feel better? I would invite you to print this conversation and meet with your psychologist. ✌️

Ive got plenty of experience. I smoked for 15 years and tried many ways to stop including NRT. I then visited a psychologist specialising in smoking cessation and she got me off it quickly and without missing out on it at all. She then showed me the basics and I did if myself for ten years. Maybe someone like myself knows more about it than someone like you who is still hooked?

@Felipe_Grey95 @jkelovuori @KulikovUNIATF @ParentsvsVape @cjsnowdon The only real conclusion might be thati @KulikovUNIATF believes pseudoscience, at the behest of his favorite billionaires?

@KulikovUNIATF @ParentsvsVape Bullshit alert!! The only way this study could be 'conclusive' is if the subjects cognitive ability were measured over time. As it stands, all it says is e-cig users may have higher cognitive impairment than non-smokers to start with. @cjsnowdon

New study raises concerns about #ecigarettes and brain health 🧠⚠️ A recent study from Thailand looked at 232 young adults aged 18–25 and found that e-cigarette users had a significantly higher risk of #cognitive impairment compared to non-users. Nearly 40% of e-cigarette users showed signs of potential cognitive #decline, vs. less than 1% of non-smokers. Even more striking: those who didn’t plan to quit within a month had 6x higher odds of cognitive issues, and those without plans to quit in 6 months had 4x higher odds. While the study doesn’t prove cause and effect (it’s cross-sectional), it adds to growing evidence that #vaping isn’t “harmless” for the developing brain. nature.com/articles/s4159…

@Adamnogender @ChaunceyGardner @grove_mitchell Ok so a consultancy is not a business. Please educate me on consulting since I as an expert who consults on traffic crash reconstructions and bill clients obviously doesn’t understand the words. Good for you on your options but you aren’t the be all end all for cessation.

@Adamnogender @ChaunceyGardner @grove_mitchell Still presumptuous and bordering on puritanical. Congrats on your quitting but you fail to realize that people,,,,,are all different,,,,I’ll take someone who understands that over someone who is stuck with promoting his own success. We don’t care how, just that you quit cigs.

@JuliaBradbury You may not have bought the blue tick but you sure drink a lot of msm koolaid. When you don’t know, DONT make 💩 up.

Another horrible plume of toxic smoke engulfed me today... Is it time to ban vaping in public places? Formaldehyde, heavy metals, ultra fine particles ..scientists call it 'third-hand exposure' ... #vaping #secondhandsmoke #publicban?

@ParentsvsVape The I’m on a mission to helicopter mom your kids anti science Karen’s have dragged up old debunked news once again. Too bad they didn’t take up science 101 instead of bs media 101.

Draft guidance? Nope. More cigarette protectionism, yup. @FDATobacco your feigned ignorance of the actual science is just totally amazing (retirement jobs not considered). Just admit someone has a hand in your pocket providing direction. fda.gov/media/191455/d…

@Vapingit @neutrinomoon If ya can join the military, you can vape smoke or dink. Bunch of numnuts in government.

#Poll: Should people 18 - 20 be allowed access to less harmful nicotine products like snus, pouches, heat not burn, and vaping? Answer the question = and if you like, tell me why you chose your answer. (Note: Last poll disappeared after editing!)

Are you tired of confusing headlines and conflicting “expert” opinions about vaping? Here’s what #PublicHealth, @DrMakaryFDA, @SecKennedy, and @FDATobacco refuse to tell you. Here are the Top 10 Misleading Claims About Nicotine Vaping... and why they don’t hold up. 1/12 👇

"Enforcement alone cannot solve a problem that the FDA created through regulatory excess. You cannot strangle a legal market, watch an illegal one explode in its place, and then act bewildered when the illegal market proves difficult to police."

@LanceChurchill Just the initial domino of states who need money. Copy and last fiends.

"The New Mexico Department of Justice announced that it has filed a lawsuit against major convenience store chains and distributors, alleging that they sold flavored disposable e-cigarettes and contributed to youth nicotine addiction across the state." 2firsts.com/news/new-mexic…

@grove_mitchell @Vapingit @Southernvaper1 @DrMakaryFDA In seven years in the business I had one request for Clove🤮🤣 on another note I had a vendor try rose on me, nope that was gross.

@Vapingit @mcherup @Southernvaper1 @DrMakaryFDA Hibiscus is actually pretty great!😂

VG, PG, & Flavorings. Hmmm The very same ingredients in a Nicotine Vape. No nic here. So why is @DrMakaryFDA not authorizing the very SAME in a vape? We know Nicotine is only dependency not addiction when the delivery is from a Vape and not cig. I found this at Walgreens.

@BradK87287 @thebee 11 people up their names on this, verifying they know nothing about research or meta-analysis. I totally admit I don’t, but damn.

Has anyone got access to the full article so we can see who funded this bullshit?

@GregTHR @bendreyfuss @benryanwriter So not only biased research not caught by an independent journalist, oh I get it, I can quote, even if wrong, and publish, thereby earning money.🤦‍♂️

@bendreyfuss @benryanwriter Ben #2 understandably doesn't want to hear from me on science since I'm a hack lobbyist, but since you tagged me, here are some non-conflicted researchers reacting to the 'study,' which is really more of an editorial with no info about study selection. sciencemediacentre.org/expert-reactio…

STUDY: Vaping Likely to Cause Cancer "Nicotine-based e-cigarettes are likely to be carcinogenic to humans who use them causing an indeterminate burden of oral cancer and lung cancer."

@BradK87287 Ahhh more of the puritanical cigarette protection league propaganda.

Shame on the scientists that submitted this disingenuous non-study Review. Shame on the peer reviewers for passing it. Shame on the Journal for publishing it. Shame on Ch7 for airing it. Shame on Public Health for agreeing with it. This is a new Low. #VAPES DO NOT CAUSE CANCER

A must read from Dr. Siegel. tobaccoanalysis.blogspot.com/2026/03/tobacc…

@UnivHealthSA Hmmm @UTHealthSA might wanna check her credentials. Spouting the drivel she uses only makes all of y’all look pretty silly. 1:3 vape daily 🤣🤣🤣🤣, forget silly, substitute actually stoopid 😱

Many teens still think vaping is safer than smoking. It’s not. Dr. Holly Keyt, medical director for our lung transplant program has treated teen vapers with severe lung damage & one who needed a lung transplant. 1 in 3 teens now vape daily. She's urging them to quit. #QuitVaping
