You Don't Know Nicotine

Everybody's talking about nicotine. Some have no idea. Kickstarted publicly, our award-winning team went around the world to get the true story. You be the judge. The wait is over. Out now on Apple TV & other platforms.

Correcting misinformation about nicotine starts with telling the truth about nicotine. These are the places to start: @KnowNicotine @SaferWiki

@PassionPlanet1 Switch to nicotine pouches. Don't smoke. Also, watch @KnowNicotine documentary

@PassionPlanet1 Yes, you might know some of the people in it. 😉

Someone help me stop smoking cigarettes... Newport hundreds got me by the balls and I don't like it.

I don't think enough of you saw this.

@Vapingit Sadly, yes. It's one big lie.

The multi-BILLION dollar global lie persists.

"Gullible Cheerleaders" pretty much sums up what happened to safer nicotine products & why so many ignore/fight/ban them. It's why many think we're crazy for making this movie. It's why most of us don't know nicotine. So much money involved. So many "experts" funded. So many gullible cheerleaders repeating the lies & misinformation that keep people smoking cigarettes & missing out on natural mental health treatments. The result? People are still using outdated, profitable, harmful products to get nicotine. Massive taxes are still collected. Users of safe products are shamed. The status quo is maintained. For profit. For pride. So gullible cheerleaders don't have to feel gullible. Mo Gawdat (Former Google exec) explains "Gullible Cheerleaders" in this podcast. We can see the same with many wars, ethnic cleansing, & other harmful social movements. youtu.be/S9a1nLw70p0?si… But the "Gullible Cheerleaders" get offended if you tell them they're wrong. It means they were gullible. Nobody wants to be "gullible." So we have the issues we have today. Instead of getting the facts first before talking, people simply choose to defend themselves and point to the person they follow on the internet who said the same thing. Solutions are ignored. We march like lemmings. Sadly, many will die like lemmings...off the cliff we go. - Aaron @Biebert

The way we see it: 1⃣ There are clear facts about nicotine. 2⃣ The facts matter. People are suffering needlessly or dying early because of misinformation. 3⃣ People are suppressing the facts. We did our best to find out both the facts & why they are suppressed. We landed on Pride, Money, & Misinformation (people suppress facts because they are misguided, but trying to help). The film includes FOA information, interviews with primary sources (various sides), & condensation of things we can all see with our own eyes. We helped you see it. If that's a conspiracy film, then nothing is true anymore.

If folks find @NicholasFlorko's latest for the @TheAtlantic of interest (gift link in thread below), I hope that they will tap in to that curiosity and pick up the gauntlet tossed by @KnowNicotine (now available on @AppleTV & @PrimeVideo!). 1/2

@mobtekmuzak What part resonated the most for you?

Finally got around to watching this documentary on Prime, really great work guys.

See what all the fuss is actually about.... @KnowNicotine

"The @KnowNicotine documentary frames opposition to nicotine as a conspiracy to suppress the truth, with clips circulating across social media encouraging users to reconsider their stance." infoepi.substack.com/p/nicotine-is-…

@JasonHornbuckle @GhostofPrickles @JunkScience It's not bad to share expert analysis. Normal people probably should be relying more on evidence, not just feelings.

@GhostofPrickles @JunkScience lol @ posting videos because you can't have a conversation

Nicotine is a safe and non-prescription means of controlling anxiety. It is more effective with fewer side effects than Big Pharma anxiety control drugs. People use to be able to smoke, but totalitarian public health nannies have driven the anxious to vaping and other less effective nicotine delivery devices. Stress is an under-appreciated killer, likely more so than even long-term smoking. Our society was less crazy when people could self-medicate on a smoking break. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2025/…

@JasonHornbuckle @JunkScience You will love our movie. Full of information. We even went to a farm so people could see it all in action. Then a lab, then to NYU, then to Vanderbilt. Full of information you can use to educate people.

@JunkScience Nicotine is a poison created by plants to kill pests. It is not "safe".

@GhostofPrickles @JasonHornbuckle @JunkScience Thanks for sharing!!

We know there can be a lot of confusion & tension about nicotine. This is why we made the film. Smoking is not the answer (discussed in our film), but clean nicotine (no smoke) might be the perfect answer for some to avoid devastating brain diseases. How can that be discussed if everyone instantly dismisses & shames users? Our film serves as a starting point. Check this out: "The link between smoking [not healthy] and a lower risk of Parkinson's disease (PD) is one of the strongest environmental or lifestyle associations in neuroepidemiology." …mentdisorders.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/md…

@Isaac_Perkins11 @LivePippas Love is the right starting point. Understanding helps us all show that love in a loving way. Misinformation isn't love. Hopefully our film helps with that balance.

@LivePippas @KnowNicotine I have love - I don't need understanding :)

Obviously I am all about educating people about vaping, but firstly it’s more important to understand nicotine, like really understanding it! Do you really @KnowNicotine ? If not, you have to see this! Now on Prime & Apple! primevideo.com/detail/You-Don… tv.apple.com/au/movie/you-d…

@CultureFixer @Biebert @LivePippas Why would people crave poison? It's not helpful for you to say stuff like this. It's actually quite harmful and leads to more death from smoking and a lack of treatment. Please watch our film. We have real scientists from leading universities helping to explain this.

@Biebert @LivePippas @KnowNicotine Nicotine is natural insecticide. Enjoy the constant cravings from poison.

@CultureFixer @LivePippas There are nicotinic recepters in the brain. It's not like other natural stimulants.

@LivePippas @KnowNicotine Nicotine is not a stimulant. The buzz is a poison survival reaction. It goes away when tolerance builds up. Strong cravings for decades replace the buzz. Nerve gas attacks the brain of insects and elephants. Harmless for plants.

@JimiJakeShaw Cool to see people engaging helpfully with each other.

@KnowNicotine Very interesting discussion!

There's a LOT more to the nicotine discussion besides just quitting smoking. It's mainly about improving brain health... It's great to see communities coming together to find answers to big problems like Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, & other neurological diseases. One 20,000 member Parkinson's community is discussing You Don't Know Nicotine right now! healthunlocked.com/cure-parkinson… There's a lot of evidence showing people who smoke cigarettes get Parkinson's less (Google it). Smoking is bad for health, but what if people used clean nicotine instead? There's a lot to discover yet, but honest/open discussion is the starting point.
