By all means, smoking is disgusting and should be reduces. But that's really not my point.

Your point was originally that it doesn't affect others, and we were discussing the ways that it does, and how those negative effects might be reduced.

I'm actually really glad to see these sorts of exchanges here more and more.

I love lemmy. <3
