You know how cigarettes increase cancer risk? They do it by causing cancer

[-] Doomsider@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

We are here talking about RFK's insistence that Tylenol causes Autism.

Cigarettes don't cause cancer as many people who smoke never get cancer. They do increase the risk of developing it though.

Once again though, we are not talking about increased risk and nor is RFK.

I can assure you I take smoking cigarettes seriously. In fact, I helped lobby to end smoking in bars and restaurants in my town and I was successful in doing so.
