No, smoking has ALWAYS been something the tobacco industry has promoted, it has never been cool, and has never done anything for anyone but cost them a lot of money, cost them their health, and if you realistically consider that it is nothing more than a burning stick in your mouth, it really looks stupid too.
Look, I understand that smokers want to rationalize their addiction, but is there any other activity on Earth that looks so incredibly stupid, is so obviously bad for your health, and costs so much? I used to almost get in fights with the kids in junior high who smoked, because I would try to tell them what a mistake it was. So now, you all have grown up with your addiction (no mentally stable adult starts smoking; it is just kids who start, or very immature adults), and are just too stubborn to admit how stupid you were to start. It's ok to admit when you are wrong. There are nicotine patches and other aids to quitting. Yes, it's hard to quit, but don't try to defend your addiction, it just makes you seem like you never grew up.
Well except smokers did better against covid(flu) than non smokers if I remember correctly. Light up for covid (super vague and nuanced reference to Edward Bernard)
