    It’s different from cigarettes. You don’t get all the tar and stuff, but many people get even more nicotine, which is bad for your heart and addictive. I would say it’s likely better, but it’s different.

    (There’s also non-nicotine vape products which often aren’t regulated so can cause all kinds of issues.)

        “Maybe bad for your heart” vs “4000+ chemicals taken in by literally inhaling carcinogenic smoke.”

        I still fail to see how you came to the conclusion vaping is much worse.

          I don’t see where they’re arguing that vaping is worse, that’s a strawman, they’re arguing that both are bad.

            “Vapes are even worse than cigarettes, for real.”

            That is a direct quote from the person I responded to. How is that not clear enough for you?

              Sure, but they’re clearly wrong in that and in the comment above they conceded the point. You’re just kicking a dead horse at this point.

                What are you talking about? They don’t concede that point in either of the two comments they made. I’m starting to think you’re trolling me and it’s working. Good job, bud. Got me good.
