Benefits of smoking cigarettes? (lemmy.world)

submitted 1 year ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

235 comments fedilink hide all child comments

My girlfriend has threatened to break up with me several times now unless I cut down to a pack a week. I'm not addicted but it does help me get through my day. I keep trying to tell her that but she doesn't believe me and keeps saying that it's actually bad. I want to prove to my girlfriend that smoking cigarettes is actually good for you so that she can stop judging me over it but I can't find any info online to back that up. Can anyone help me find some resources that list the health benefits of cigarettes? Like how nicotine kills germs or anything like that?

It is possible that this is a troll. Their account is 1h old. The OP of the post also is new. I saw a post on the another asklemmy in which OP makes quite ridiculous statements and their acc is also new. That’s 3 in a short span of a couple of hours. Here’s to hoping this is not an orchestrated thing, and it’s just people revealing who they are through pseudo-anonymity.

It could be a troll, but so many people think that natural automatically means healthy that I think odds are it isn't. Naturopathy is actually a lucrative profession thanks to these saps.
