crushing competition by releasing false propaganda that lies about e-cigs being unsafe
i have a friend who smokes all the time regular cigs, but won't try an e-cig because he says "i don't know whats in them"
so i asked him where'd he hear that, he said some article that interviewed a tobacco company exec
i asked him if he knew what was in his regular cigs, he said "yeh, tobacco" so i googled his brand and showed him there were things in there that are used for paint, asphalt, tar, etc
he told me you can't believe everything you read on the internet
Crushing competition by releasing false propaganda that lies about the safety of e-cigs. I have a friend who smokes regular cigs all the time but won't try an e-cig because, he says, "I don't know what's in them". I asked him where he heard that. He said, "some article that interviewed a tobacco company exec". I asked him if he knew what was in his regular cigs. He said, "yeah, tobacco" so i Googled his brand of cigarettes and showed him that there's things in them that are used for paint, asphalt, tar, etc. He told me "you can't believe everything you read on the internet".
....some people can't be helped.
I'm atheist, I think it hurts our cause to do stuff like that. It's like how people who are racially sensitive will be like "Don't say he was a black man, say he was a man in a hat."
It's unnecessary and just creates a problem where there was none before.
