When Will California unban these? 🙄

I'm beyond frustrated with California's ban on menthol cigarettes—it’s absolutely infuriating. It feels like the state is treating adults like children, stripping away our freedom to choose under the guise of public health, while completely ignoring the fact that people will still find ways to get what they want. Instead of focusing on meaningful solutions like education or support to help people quit, they go for a ban that only fuels the black market and punishes law-abiding smokers. It’s insulting and ineffective. And what’s worse, there’s no clear sign it’ll be unbanned anytime soon. The state seems determined to double down on this overreach, even as it fails to produce real results. It’s hard not to feel like personal choice just doesn’t matter anymore.
