nothing I said had anything negative about banning Vapes
The post is about banning single use vapes. You commented that the "uk is just banning everything now" so you are saying that the banning of single use vapes is linked to the banning of all these other things.
So my defending of the single use vape ban is to show that it is in no way linked to any other bans apparently taking place in the uk. So your suggestion that the uk "just bans things" is not relevant and unsubstantiated.
it's generalized statement about the actions of the UK it doesn't have to really mean anything more than that you're just injecting things into what I say and then creating some weird argument in your head about it
So what does it have to do with banning single use vapes?
Why are you struggling to understand this very simple concept?
You are commenting that the uk bans everything on a post about banning single use vapes.
If you didn't mean to imply that these two things are related, then why are you posting that here?
If it's a separate matter, then post it somewhere relevant.
Or you can stop pretending im the weird one just because i correctly called you out on something you said being irrelevant.
Try this: Google "UK bans" look at the hundreds of recent articles and come to your own conclusion. I'm not here to hold your hand and explain everything in the world to you.
Why do you still think that banning single use vapes has anything to do with other uk bans? Why do you still think thats what im talking about?
it just seems that they ban things often is my point, that's literally it. UK's solution to modern issues = ban
Yes but its not relevant to the single use vape ban.
If a ban is the best solution and solves a huge problem do we not do it just because we like to ban things?
