It’s not wrong to sell tobacco to a grown adult. An adult is responsible for their own choices.
It is wrong to sell addictive substances to addicts.
Sure, adults have the right to smoke if they want. They are, of course, adults. But that doesn't make it okay for tobacco companies to advertise harmful and addictive substances to anyone, least of all the people who are already addicted.
Even if it forces everyone in the vicinity to inhale that crap? Smoking has one distinct feature in that it harms not just the user, but everyone around as well.
Being an addict does not make a person an invalid. An addict is still an adult capable of consenting.
Addicts are not in proper mental capacity to make an informed decision especially when in a state of withdrawl

Are you a bisexual penguin from Germany?

If everyone existed in a bubble then that would be true. Unfortunately your smoking affects others. If you only ever do it outside away from others then it's probably only causing health problems for you, but that's still putting load on the health system. However I'm overweight so it would be hypocritical of me to admonish you too much on that front. If you smoke indoors and near other people then you are making everyone smoke for your own satisfaction.
