All working to protect the industry from harm. They all knew it was harmful but as they were all riding the gravy train (Pink Floyd reference) they were more than happy to play along. The people that brought the truth to light were whistleblowers, independent researchers, medical doctors, public interest advocates, social justice advocates of the era, all bucking the system to expose the truth. And being subject to harassment and attacks on their personal and professional character. Sound familiar? Their actions are consistent with the current experts being branded as spreaders of "misinformation". And the current actions by big government and big pharma follow the tobacco industry and government complicity to a tee. What's more simple minded is casually dismissing and not taking their COVID concerns seriously because your belief and support of authority and the official narrative will not protect you from personal harm to your health if they're conclusions derived from experience and subject matter expertise are correct. What about all the tobacco planters, the employees of the companies and all the knot heads that were screaming cigarettes were safe?

Rogan can have a good podcast, by why the need to be extreme. Isn't freedom about choice. I'm not sure about the 'many' right wingers advocating a return to time when women could not vote, but to be clear: I stand with my friends @muppy and @ComradeKayAdams and their right to vote! Why? Because they are smart and women smell nice! @Irv please be sure to add "Let Women Keep Voting" to your PPP platform! 1 2

The people who "censored" cigarette commercials from lying about the health costs of those products won, didn't they? Those people that complained it was censorship to not be allowed lie about what was in their consumer products lost, correct?

In bidness its called product differation. You want that. Its what sets you apart from the competition so they purchase yours as opposed to the competition's. Same is true in politics. If your party works with the other party and you come together to get things done to help the people that elected you there would be no difference. Why choose one over the other. If they haggle with the opposition and call out all their bad stuff, you can get more people to vote for you than actually doing your job. You seem to be working from the misconception that it is all on the up and up and people are fairly elected to do what's fair and honest and good for the American people. There's too much power and money at stake for it to work that way. 1 1
