The FDA is in the process of banning not only flavored e-cigs, but menthol cigarettes as well. Supposedly this will stop teen vaping/smoking...because...? It's already illegal for anyone under the age of 18 to buy cigarettes AND vaping stuff. They always card me at Walgreen's, even though I'm 55 years old and clearly old enough to buy vape stuff. Because a few kids are slipping through the legalities, now they want to outright ban it.
First of all, who smokes menthol cigarettes?
That's right, black people. So in my mind this ban specifically targets them and you'd think they'd object to that.
But what's really on my mind is government run amok. They are so powerful and we are such sheeple that they can do whatever they want, and there's nothing we can do to stop them. Government agencies can ban anything they please, no matter how stupid and overreaching, and there's nothing we can do about it.
Read this piece and the statements by FDA officials - it will make your head explode.

And the comment: "Yet marijuana is being legalized."
It's freaking crazy.

That's toxicly masculine or patriarchal.... Lets call that Big Sister!
I don't know what that means.
